Description
ICON Vehicle Dynamics 2019-2021 Ford Ranger suspension systems are designed to dramatically increase the on and off-road ride quality. 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.
With wheel travel and ride quality in mind, ICON engineers researched each component of the new Ranger platform's suspension and addressed any areas where performance could be extracted. The Stage 8 (Tubular) system includes vehicle-specific tuned, extended travel CDCV 2.5 Series coilover shocks featuring remote reservoirs for exceptional cooling properties and ICON-engineered coil springs for superior vehicle Inchfeel Inch through the range of travel.
These coilovers are also height adjustable from 0-3.5 Inch allowing the use of larger, more aggressive wheel and tire combinations. The included ICON tubular upper control arm kit is designed to improve the overall performance with corrected front-end geometry, built in additional caster, and improved suspension component clearance.
Replacing the OE ball joint with the ICON Delta Joint allows for full bump and extended droop travel of the front suspension while eliminating bind. ICON CDCV 2.5 Aluminum Series piggyback reservoir rear shocks utilize a vehicle-specific valving that balances the performance of the truck from front to rear while the included foam bump stop kit increases rear end compliance.
To improve the front-to-rear balance and increase the compliance of the truck, the rear spring rate of the Multi Rate Leaf Packs has been lowered compared to stock. The Multi Rate Leaf Pack was designed with an additional leaf that can be exchanged or added to the pack yielding additional spring rate that will handle more outfitted vehicles.
The ICON 2019-2021 Ford Ranger Stage 8 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.
Features and Benefits:- This system features tubular steel upper control arms with ICON's patented 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.
