ICON 2016-2023 Nissan Titan XD 2.5 VS Remote Reservoir CDCV Front Coilover Kit
Couldn't load pickup availability
The ICON Vehicle Dynamics 2.5 VS Remote Reservoir/CDCV Front Coilover Kit is a vehicle-specific front suspension upgrade for 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD trucks, delivering 2.5–3 inches of lift height adjustability and approximately 32% more front wheel travel than stock. The 2.5-inch shock body, remote reservoir, and ICON's Compression Damping Control Valve (CDCV) combine to give Titan XD owners precise, tunable control across street, trail, and high-speed desert terrain.

More Travel, Better Control Off the Beaten Path
The larger 2.5-inch shock body and increased piston area over stock components maximize available front wheel travel, which translates directly to better wheel contact on uneven ground and reduced chassis impact when the terrain gets rough. Vehicle-specific shock length and valving mean the kit is tuned for the Titan XD's geometry rather than adapted from a universal platform, so the improved travel comes with suspension behavior that matches how the truck actually loads and moves.
Remote Reservoirs That Resist Fade Under Hard Use
Remote reservoirs increase shock oil volume and heat-dissipation surface area, which helps the dampers resist overheating and cavitation during extended off-road runs. Shock oil that overheats loses consistent damping ability, a condition known as damper fade; the reservoir design directly addresses that by keeping operating temperatures lower for longer.
Ten Settings of External Compression Adjustment
ICON's Compression Damping Control Valve gives 10 positions of external compression adjustment without removing the shock. That range covers slow-speed rock crawling, daily street driving, and high-speed off-road use from the same hardware. Height adjustment is handled through the coilover perch, allowing the 2.5–3-inch lift range to be dialed in at installation or changed later without replacing components. The shocks are fully rebuildable and re-tunable, which extends the service life well beyond a non-serviceable unit.
Features
- 2.5-inch shock body: increased piston area over stock for maximum front wheel travel
- CDCV with 10 settings: external compression damping adjustment without shock removal
- Remote reservoir: greater oil volume and heat dissipation to resist damper fade
- 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum CNC components: CAD-plated shock bodies with 7/8-inch diameter shafts
- FK rod end bearings: extended longevity and minimal deflection
- Fully rebuildable and re-tunable: serviceable for long-term use

Who This Is For and Isn't
This front coilover kit suits 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD owners who want a meaningful lift in the 2.5–3-inch range, more front wheel travel for off-road use, and the ability to tune compression damping externally for different terrain and driving styles. It pairs directly with ICON 2.0 or 2.5 Aluminum Series rear coilovers for balanced front-to-rear suspension performance.
This kit covers the front suspension only and does not include rear shocks or coilovers. Tires larger than 33x11.50 inches may require fender trimming and additional modifications. This kit does not fit Nissan Titan (non-XD) models or any model year outside 2016–2023.
Common Questions
What lift height does this front coilover kit provide on the 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD?
The ICON 2.5 VS Remote Reservoir/CDCV Front Coilover Kit for the 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD provides 2.5–3 inches of front lift height adjustability, set at installation via the coilover perch and adjustable without replacing components.
What does the CDCV do and how many adjustment positions does it have?
The Compression Damping Control Valve (CDCV) controls fluid flow under compression and offers 10 positions of external adjustment without removing the shock. This allows the damping character to be changed for street driving, slow rock crawling, or high-speed off-road use using the same hardware.
Why does a remote reservoir matter for off-road use?
The remote reservoir on this Titan XD front coilover kit increases shock oil volume and heat-dissipation surface area. Shock oil that overheats loses consistent damping ability; the reservoir helps maintain cooler operating temperatures and more consistent performance under hard use.
Does this kit work with stock Titan XD wheels and tires?
Yes, OEM wheels and tires are confirmed compatible with this front coilover kit. For aftermarket fitments, ICON recommends 17x8.5 with 4.75-inch backspace, 18x9 with 5.00-inch backspace, or 20x9 with 5.00-inch backspace wheels, paired with tires up to 33x11.50 inches. Larger tires may fit but can require fender trimming and modifications.
Is this kit rebuildable, and does it cover the rear suspension as well?
This ICON front coilover kit is fully rebuildable and re-tunable for long-term serviceability. It covers the front suspension only; rear coverage requires separate ICON 2.0 or 2.5 Aluminum Series rear coilovers, which balance vehicle control front to rear on the Titan XD.
