Couldn't load pickup availability
The ICON Stage 2 Suspension System raises 2014–2026 Ram 2500 4WD Diesel trucks 4.5 inches at the front and 2 inches at the rear using a matched set of ICON-engineered components: dual rate coil springs, vehicle-specific 2.5 Aluminum Series remote reservoir shocks front and rear, an adjustable front track bar, laser-cut radius arm drop brackets, billet bump stop spacers, fabricated rear coil spacers, and all installation hardware. This system fits coil spring rear models only and is rated for diesel engines only.

Balanced Lift Without Sacrificing Tow Capability
The Stage 2 system achieves a level front-to-rear stance (4.5 inches up front and 2 inches in the rear) without reducing the Ram 2500's tow capacity. For a truck used as a daily driver and a work vehicle, keeping tow ratings intact matters as much as the lift itself. The fabricated rear coil spacers work with the factory rear coil springs, so there is no need to replace them.
Geometry Corrected from the Start
At 4.5 inches of front lift, suspension geometry shifts enough to affect handling and axle alignment. The adjustable front track bar, fitted with PTFE-lined spherical bearings, realigns the front axle and eliminates the bushing deflection that causes vague steering feel. The precision CNC laser-cut radius arm drop brackets restore correct suspension geometry so the system behaves predictably on-road and off. Larger wheel and tire combinations up to 37 inches in diameter are supported without fender trimming on most submodels.
Vehicle-Specific Shock Tuning Front and Rear
Both the front and rear shocks are ICON 2.5 Aluminum Series remote reservoir units tuned specifically for the Ram 2500 at this lift height. Remote reservoirs increase fluid and gas capacity, which helps maintain consistent damping on extended off-road runs or loaded highway miles. All shocks in this system are fully serviceable.

Who This Is For and Isn't
This system suits 2014–2026 Ram 2500 4WD trucks with diesel engines and coil spring rear suspensions used for daily driving, towing, and recreational off-road use where a level 4.5"/2" lift and increased wheel travel are the goal.
This system does not fit 2WD Ram 2500 models, gasoline-engine Ram 2500 models, or Ram 2500 trucks equipped with factory rear air ride. Ram 2500 Rebel models receive 2.5 inches of front lift, not 4.5 inches. Vehicles with two-piece driveshafts require the separate ICON carrier shim kit (214211), not included. 2019–2026 models require a separate aftermarket high-angle front driveshaft (ICON 212511 or 212512 recommended) to prevent driveshaft bind; that part is not included. ADAS recalibration is required after installation. This system is not compatible with other-brand aftermarket trackbars.

Common Questions
Does this system work on a Ram 2500 with a gasoline engine?
No. The ICON Stage 2 system for 2014–2026 Ram 2500 is rated for diesel engines only. The dual rate front coil springs in this kit are specifically engineered for the heavier front-end weight of diesel-equipped trucks and are not appropriate for gasoline-engine Ram 2500 models.
Will this kit fit a Ram 2500 with factory rear air ride?
No. The ICON Stage 2 system for 2014–2026 Ram 2500 is not compatible with factory rear air ride suspension. It is designed for coil spring rear models only. Verify your truck's rear suspension configuration before ordering.
How much front lift does a Ram 2500 Rebel get with this system?
The ICON Stage 2 system provides 2.5 inches of front lift on the Ram 2500 Rebel, not the 4.5 inches delivered on most other Ram 2500 submodels. The rear lift of 2 inches applies to all compatible configurations.
Do 2019–2026 Ram 2500 trucks need any additional parts?
Yes. 2019–2026 Ram 2500 and 3500 models require a separate aftermarket high-angle front driveshaft to prevent driveshaft bind at this lift height. ICON part numbers 212511 or 212512 are recommended. That driveshaft is not included in the Stage 2 system and must be purchased separately.
Is ADAS recalibration required after installing this system?
Yes. The ICON Stage 2 system for 2014–2026 Ram 2500 requires recalibration of Advanced Driver Assistance Systems after installation. This applies to any Ram 2500 equipped with ADAS features. Recalibration should be performed by a qualified technician.
What is the largest tire this system supports without fender modifications?
The ICON Stage 2 system supports tires up to 37 inches by 12.50 inches on most Ram 2500 submodels without fender trimming. Larger tires may fit but will require fender trimming and modifications. OEM wheels and tires are also confirmed to fit.
