    TMX is now a vendor of Icon Vehicle Dynamics products

    Whtrapta the built in bump stop deal you are talking about is a front coilover feature. What we feel about the rear 3.0 bypass shock we build is that it has the ability to eat up so much of the energy and control the rear end enough to prevent harsh slamming of the factory bumpstop. Smashing the...

    ICON and KC Hilites team up for the Snoball 500

    We will not be at this event this year....we will attend next year if it continues annually as expected. Unfortunately we have so much going on over the next few months and other prior commitments conflicting with this event. Wish it was open for us because this is really shaping up to be a...

    Kings VS Icon

    The ICON Vehicle Dynamics Raptor 3.0 front shock is not technically a "bypass" but it is position sensitive to create more force in different stages of the stroke similar to an internal bypass shock. However the ICON 3.0 has the advantage of more control and tune-ability in the ride zone because...

    Happy Thanksgiving from ICON Vehicle Dynamics to You!

    Offset and back spacing are really the same thing just 2 different ways of looking at it. Backspace - is generally the measurement from the back lip of the wheel to inside flat pad that the hub sits up against Offset (positive or negative) - is generally the measurement from the centerline of...

    Kings VS Icon

    The ICON Raptor has a support plate that runs under the factory bumpstop we made real quick, but nothing of any significant value. The shocks really do eat up so much energy before the OEM bumpstop can slam down which in-turn leads to bending of the frame. Is the frame perfectly strait like out...

    Kings VS Icon

    I know there has also been talk regarding many that believe the only way you can make great shocks is having proven shocks for a TT....Well I thought this would be a good opportunity to show that we do have experience in racing and have built a 4.5" Trophy Truck quality shock here at ICON...

    FOX 3.0 vs. King 3.0

    Cups - With the wide range of adjust-ability there will not be any issue at all. Honestly the way they are tuned out of the factory has made many people happy with both factory and aftermarket springs. You always have the option with a few turns of the compression and rebound knobs to dial it in...

    FOX 3.0 vs. King 3.0

    I agree with a few things that were said in this thread 1 being that its hard for anyone to say which one rides or works better if you have not driven a raptor equipped with all 3 for yourself to really know the difference. What I also know is that ride is subjective to each person, there...

    ICON 3.0 Suspension upgrade

    Justvettn - Talked with Dylan and looked at our Raptor (it was gone yesterday with the owner using it) and ours is set right about where you have it maybe one turn in on the heims into the sleeve. Set the distance similar to match the stock length and then adjust on the truck as needed when they...

    ICON 3.0 Suspension upgrade

    ManleyORV - From Dylan our head engineer who has developed the ICON Raptor suspension products and also does all the testing on and off road stated this: The ICON rear shock has far more energy capacity than the factory shock and therefore absorbs / dissipates much of the hard bottoming energy...

    ICON 3.0 Suspension upgrade

    We are currently running stock springs and no bump stops or frame gussets. Raptor has been well used and everything looks pretty strait and in great working condition. We will be adding an ICON Hydraulic Bump Stop Kit in the near future. ---------- Post added at 02:57 PM ---------- Previous...

    Promo Video of a Ford Raptor with ICON Suspension

    Little video we received today of a Ford Raptor that has our ICON Stage 2 - 3.0 Suspension System on it that will be on display at the 2012 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, NV this week. CBI Offroad did most of the assembly and fabrication for the customer. Ford Raptor SEMA truck in the sand - YouTube

    ICON 3.0 Suspension upgrade

    The torque spec answer comes down to liability.....Automobile manufacturers change components they are using all the time and we have no true control to know what brand / quality bolt is on each truck and what the real spec for that specific bolt would be. It's tit for tat in some eyes but if we...

    Icon 3.0 Installation, Testing, and Review.

    Humvee21 - If you order a set of ICON Ford Raptor shocks through an Authorized dealer like SDHQ whow you are familiar with her on FRF....they have the ability to what we call "choke up the shock" or install a limiting spacer that would keep the travel the same as stock or if you prefer less than...

    Icon 3.0 Installation, Testing, and Review.

    I think a simple answer is if you run the suspension maxed out in height all the time you will likely wear parts faster then normal, but we have had great luck so far in our recommended ranges. Our Raptor has around 15k testing miles on and off road and we have no issue to date. These miles...

    Icon 3.0 Installation, Testing, and Review.

    Hey guys just wanted make sure you know what the scoop is.....ICON makes all our shocks and products in house from our 2.0 aluminum series, 2.5's and 3.0's. We did at one time sell a 5100 series 2.0 basic shock from Bilstein that was private label built for us, but that ended a year and a half...
