Shop ICON suspension by vehicle

Choose the right ICON suspension system

Start with your vehicle’s year, make and model, then check the product’s application notes, lift range and included components. Suspension stages and available shock or control-arm options vary by platform; a higher stage number does not mean every kit fits the same vehicle.

Before ordering, confirm compatibility with your existing suspension, tire size and intended use. Contact Venture Overland Company for fitment help if you are unsure which ICON kit or component matches your build.

Which ICON stage fits which truck?

ICON Vehicle Dynamics builds its stage systems as complete, vehicle-specific packages. A higher stage number means more parts and more capability, not a different truck. ICON’s own guidance is that the parts in each stage vary by platform — a Super Duty is arranged differently than a Tacoma, 4Runner, or F-150 — so the parts list for your exact year, make, and model is the final word.

ICON also draws a clear line between a typical lift kit and a performance suspension system. A lift kit’s main purpose is to raise the vehicle for look or stance. ICON systems focus on extracting more performance from the vehicle and finding an optimal lift height for that application so you can run larger tires and gain ground clearance.

Coilover vs. a complete ICON system

An ICON coilover is a spring and shock built as one unit, and many are ride-height adjustable. A complete stage system packages those coilovers with the matching components ICON specifies for that vehicle. Two official examples:

  • 2005–2023 Toyota Tacoma, Stage 1 (K53001): vehicle-specific 2.5" internal-reservoir coilovers with ICON-engineered coil springs, plus 2.0 Aluminum Series rear shocks. Front lift is adjustable from 0–3.5" on 2005–2015 models and 0–2.75" on 2016–2023 models.
  • 2010–2024 Toyota 4Runner and 2010–2014 FJ Cruiser, Stage 1 (K53061): 2.5 Series front coilovers adjustable from 0–3.5" of lift, matching 2.0 Aluminum Series rear shocks, and a pair of 2" lift rear coil springs.

How ICON describes the stages

Treat this as ICON’s own overview, not a spec sheet for every truck:

  • Stage 1: new shocks and springs that lift the vehicle, smooth the ride, and help fit bigger tires. On a Tacoma or 4Runner, Stage 1 usually starts with an internal-reservoir coilover up front and 2.0 rear shocks.
  • Stage 2: the Stage 1 setup plus remote-reservoir shocks that handle heat better on long, bumpy drives, regular dirt roads, or towing.
  • Stages 3–5: adds stronger arms that hold the front wheels at the correct angle after a lift; some versions add a compression-adjustment dial. ICON points these at lifted trucks with bigger tires and real trail use.
  • Stage 6 and up: upgrades almost everything, front and rear, for the most travel, adjustment, and control on serious off-road use.

ICON says most drivers are happiest between Stage 1 and Stage 3, that stages stack so you can start lower and add parts later (2.0-series shocks cannot be converted to 2.5-series), and that the right system also depends on budget, terrain, vehicle setup, and driving style.
