19-23 Ram 1500 Icon Stage 5 Suspension System (0-1.5" Lift)

With several changes being made to the 2019 RAM 1500 platform including an all-new frame, increased chassis rigidity, and a lighter overall weight, ICON’s R&D department went above and beyond to make sure the new RAM truck was properly analyzed. With these changes made by the factory, the development of new ICON rear shocks (and revised front coilover tuning) was necessary to optimize fitment and performance on this new platform.

ICON Vehicle Dynamics RAM 1500 suspension systems are designed with maximum performance and the serious driver in mind. ICON engineers’ primary focus is to increase wheel travel and damping ability, which translates into outstanding vehicle control and ride quality both on and off-road. The Stage 4 system includes vehicle-specific tuned 2.5” coilover shocks featuring an internal reservoir for exceptional cooling properties and ICON-engineered coil springs for superior vehicle “feel” through the range of travel. These coilovers are also height adjustable from 0-1.5” of lift over stock, allowing the use of larger, more aggressive wheel and tire combinations. ICON’s tubular steel upper control arms with Delta Joints are included for additional strength and improved suspension geometry for more predictable handling. ICON 2.5 Series CDCV piggyback reservoir rear shocks offer compression damping adjustability and when paired with 1.5" lift, dual rate rear coil springs balance the performance of the truck from front to rear. The ICON Vehicle Dynamics 2019-2023 RAM 1500 Stage 5 suspension system is an excellent choice for those drivers looking to enhance the capabilities of their pickup on the road as well as in the dirt.

CDC VALVE FEATURES:
The ICON CDC Valve is an externally adjustable valve that restricts oil flow into the reservoir which creates 10 levels of compression damping force ranges. If you are looking for a more user defined tune, consider looking into the Omega Series bypass shocks.

• CDC Valve shocks are application specific tuned like all ICON shocks
• Internally calibrated per application based on motion ratio, shaft diameter, and vehicle weights
• 10 detented stops and large adjuster knob provide easy-to-feel adjustments
• Allows the end user to optimize vehicle's ride specific to his/her liking on all types of terrain
• Clearly engraved knob for direct reading of current setting

DELTA JOINT OVERVIEW:
This system features upper control arms with ICON's patent pending Delta Joint. The Delta Joint is a heavy-duty high angle ball joint that combines the durability of a ball joint with the performance characteristics of a traditional uniball. While the industry standard uniball does a great job of allowing the control arms of a vehicle to articulate with little bind, they do have an inherent weakness that leaves more to be desired when used in a daily driven application - exposure to the elements. The Delta Joint features a zinc plated housing providing the first layer of corrosion resistance, while a tough grease seal keeps potentially harmful elements out of the inner workings of the joint. Metal on metal construction and a greaseable design increase the longevity of the Delta Joint while at the same time allowing for noise-free operation. What makes the Delta Joint unique is that it brings the best of both worlds to ICON upper control arms with features that make it more robust than a uniball, and at the same time capable of greater angularity than a typical ball joint.

DELTA JOINT FEATURES:

• ICON upper control arms allow for additional wheel travel while improving suspension geometry for predictable handling
• Patent pending Delta Joint combines the durability and weather resistance of a ball joint with the performance characteristics of a uniball
• CNC machined 6061 billet aluminum upper control arms allow for on-vehicle camber and caster adjustment
• Direct bolt-in design makes for a simple and straightforward installation
