ICON Stage 3 Suspension System with Tubular UCA for 2015-2020 Ford F-150 4WD

The ICON Stage 3 Suspension System with Tubular UCA is a bolt-on performance suspension upgrade for 2015–2020 Ford F-150 4WD trucks, delivering 0–2.63 inches of front lift height through vehicle-specific tuned 2.5-inch coilover shocks, ICON-engineered Eibach coil springs, tubular upper control arms with ICON's patented Delta Joint, and 2.5 Aluminum Series piggyback reservoir rear shocks. No cutting or welding is required for installation.

Increased Wheel Travel Without Sacrificing Daily Drivability

The front coilovers in this Stage 3 system are tuned specifically for the lighter curb weight of the 2015–2020 F-150, so the valving delivers controlled damping whether the truck is loaded on the highway or working through rough terrain. An internal reservoir on each front coilover provides additional fluid capacity for heat dissipation during extended off-road use, helping maintain consistent damping performance when it matters most. The height-adjustable design allows fitment of larger wheel and tire combinations. OEM wheels and tires fit confirmed, and recommended aftermarket sizes run up to 20x9 inches.

Delta Joint UCAs: Durability and Alignment Range Together

The tubular upper control arms included in this system use ICON's patented Delta Joint, a high-angle ball joint that combines the articulation range of a uniball with the sealed, greasable construction of a conventional ball joint. A zinc-plated housing and tough grease seal protect the joint's internal components from corrosion and contamination. Metal-on-metal construction and a greasable design extend the longevity of the Delta Joint while allowing for noise-free operation. The tubular UCA design also helps retain factory alignment spec range while increasing caster over stock, which supports more predictable steering feel as lift height increases. These arms are optimized for front lift heights of 1.75 to 3 inches over stock.

Balanced Front-to-Rear Performance

The 2.5 Aluminum Series piggyback reservoir rear shocks use vehicle-specific valving developed to complement the front coilovers, keeping the truck's damping characteristics balanced across both axles. One-piece impact-extruded aluminum cylinders give the rear shocks strong corrosion resistance and a consistent finish over time. The rear shocks support 0–1 inch of rear lift over stock on most models.

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This Stage 3 system suits 2015–2020 Ford F-150 4WD owners who want a bolt-on suspension upgrade that increases front wheel travel and lift height up to 2.63 inches, improves damping on and off-road, and accommodates larger wheel and tire combinations while retaining factory alignment spec range.

This system is not compatible with 2WD F-150 models, any F-150 equipped with aftermarket spindles, or any vehicle outside the 2015–2020 Ford F-150 4WD application. Ford F-150 models with the Power Stroke diesel engine have a reduced front lift range of 0–2.13 inches. The tubular UCAs are optimized for front lift heights of 1.75–3 inches over stock and are not intended for use at lower lift heights. Rear shocks support a maximum of 1 inch of rear lift over stock on most models.

Common Questions

Does this system fit 2WD F-150 models?

The ICON Stage 3 Suspension System with Tubular UCA is compatible only with 4-wheel drive (4WD) F-150 models from 2015–2020. Two-wheel drive F-150 trucks are not a supported application for this system.

Can this system be used with aftermarket spindles?

This Stage 3 system is only compatible with OE (factory) spindles. Installing it in combination with any aftermarket spindles is not supported and should not be done.

What lift height does this system provide on a Power Stroke diesel F-150?

On 2015–2020 Ford F-150 models equipped with the Power Stroke diesel engine, the front lift height range for this Stage 3 system is 0–2.13 inches over stock, rather than the 0–2.63 inches available on gasoline-engine models.

What wheel and tire sizes are recommended with this system?

OEM wheels and tires fit this Stage 3 system without modification. Recommended aftermarket wheel sizes are 17x8.5 inches with 5.00-inch backspace, 18x9 inches with 5.25-inch backspace, and 20x9 inches with 5.625-inch backspace. Recommended aftermarket tire size is 33x11.50 inches; larger tires may fit but fender trimming or other modifications may be required.

Does installation require cutting or welding?

The ICON Stage 3 Suspension System with Tubular UCA is a bolt-on system. No cutting or welding is required for installation on compatible 2015–2020 Ford F-150 4WD trucks with OE spindles.
