ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Remote Reservoir Front Shock for 1999-2004 Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty 4WD 8-10.5" Lift

The ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series front shock absorber with remote reservoir is engineered specifically for 1999–2004 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 4WD trucks running 8–10.5 inches of front lift over stock. A nitrogen-charged monotube design, 6063 anodized aluminum body, and vehicle-specific valving deliver improved damping on road and off. Shocks are sold individually; most installations require two per vehicle.

Shipping: ICON parts ship direct from ICON Vehicle Dynamics, mostly by UPS Ground. Lead times vary by part and some items are built to order, so please allow extra time. We email tracking as soon as your order ships.

Vehicle-Specific Valving for Real-World Performance

The V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series shock uses a one-piece linear/digressive piston with valving developed specifically for the 1999–2004 F-250/F-350 Super Duty at 8–10.5 inches of lift. The damping curve is calibrated for the actual weight, geometry, and travel of this application, not adapted from a generic tune. Premium 5WT shock oil maintains consistent damping across a wide temperature range, so performance holds up whether the truck is commuting or crawling.

Aluminum Construction Built to Dissipate Heat and Resist Corrosion

The shock body and reservoir tubing are 6063 anodized aluminum, chosen for its heat dissipation and corrosion resistance under sustained off-road use. The rod end, top cap, and internals are 6061 aluminum. The 5/8-inch chrome-plated hardened steel shaft resists corrosion and pitting. Polyurethane bushings, zinc-plated sleeves, and forged steel mounting stems maintain OE-style fitment at the mount points.

Rebuildable and Revalveable for Long-Term Value

Every ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series shock is 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable. When driving conditions or lift height change, the shock can be revalved rather than replaced. A nitrile rubber top-out bumper provides noise-free operation at full extension. For applications involving sustained extreme off-road abuse, ICON's V.S. 2.5 Series shock is the next step up in the lineup.

Features

• 5/8" chrome-plated hardened steel shaft: resists corrosion and pitting
• 6063 anodized aluminum body and reservoir: heat dissipation and corrosion resistance
• 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable: serviceable for the life of the vehicle
• Polyurethane bushings, zinc-plated sleeves, forged steel mounting stems: OE-style fitment at mount points

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This shock is for owners of 1999–2004 Ford F-250 or F-350 Super Duty 4WD trucks running 8–10.5 inches of front lift who want a rebuildable, vehicle-specific performance upgrade over stock damping for street and off-road use.

This shock does not fit F-250/F-350 trucks outside the 1999–2004 model years, 2WD variants, or lift heights below 8 inches or above 10.5 inches. It is sold as a single unit; a typical front installation requires two shocks. The ICON Dual Shock Mount kit (part no. 39010, four required) is sold separately. California residents: this product is subject to a Proposition 65 warning for chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm.

Common Questions

How many shocks do I need for a complete front installation?

The ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series front shock (SKU 36509R) is sold individually. A typical front installation on the 1999–2004 Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty requires two shocks. If using the ICON Dual Shock Mount kit (part no. 39010), four shocks are required per vehicle.

What lift height is this shock compatible with?

This ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series front shock is valved and sized for 8–10.5 inches of front lift over stock on the 1999–2004 Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty 4WD. It is not rated for use outside that lift range.

Can this shock be rebuilt or revalved if my needs change?

Yes. Every ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series shock is 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable, so the shock can be serviced or retuned rather than replaced when driving conditions or lift configuration changes.

Is this shock compatible with the ICON Dual Shock Mount kit?

Yes. The ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series front shock (SKU 36509R) is compatible with the ICON Dual Shock Mount kit, part number 39010. That kit is sold separately, and four units are required per vehicle when using the dual-mount configuration.
