Valving is tuned by ICON engineers specifically for these applications, balancing on-road composure with off-road capability. Sold individually; two shocks are required per vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-shipping-note\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e ICON parts ship direct from ICON Vehicle Dynamics, mostly by UPS Ground.

That specificity matters: a generic shock tuned to a middle-ground setting compromises both street manners and trail response, while vehicle-specific valving lets ICON optimize damping for the actual spring rates, geometry, and weight distribution of these platforms. The result is a shock that improves both daily driving comfort and off-road control without asking the driver to choose between them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAluminum Construction Built for Heat and Corrosion\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shock body and reservoir tubing are machined from 6063 anodized aluminum, which dissipates heat more effectively than steel-bodied shocks during sustained off-road use. Heat buildup causes fade, and fade means inconsistent damping when the terrain demands it most. Internal components including the rod end, top cap, and internals are 6061 aluminum. The 5\/8-inch chrome-plated hardened steel shaft resists corrosion and pitting, and the 6063 anodized exterior resists the trail grime, moisture, and road salt that degrade lesser finishes over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRebuildable and Revalveable for Long-Term Value\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series shock is 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable. For a considered purchase in a performance suspension category, that matters: rather than replacing the entire shock when seals wear or when a future lift change calls for different damping characteristics, the shock can be rebuilt or revalved to match new requirements. Premium 5WT shock oil maintains consistent damping across a wide temperature range, and the nitrogen-charged monotube design with internal reservoir resists aeration that causes damping inconsistency under repeated compression cycles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNitrogen-charged monotube with internal reservoir:\u003c\/strong\u003e resists aeration for consistent damping under repeated off-road use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle-specific valving:\u003c\/strong\u003e one-piece linear\/digressive piston tuned for FJ Cruiser, 4Runner, and GX applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6063 anodized aluminum body and reservoir:\u003c\/strong\u003e superior heat dissipation and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5\/8\" chrome-plated hardened steel shaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e resists corrosion and pitting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable:\u003c\/strong\u003e serviceable for long-term use and future revalving\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolyurethane bushings, zinc-plated sleeves, forged steel mounting stems:\u003c\/strong\u003e OE-style fitment at the mounting points\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSKU\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e56505\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShock body diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.0 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShaft diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e5\/8 in, chrome-plated hardened steel\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBody \/ reservoir material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e6063 anodized aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eInternal components\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e6061 aluminum rod end, top cap, and internals\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShock oil\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePremium 5WT\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDesign\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNitrogen-charged monotube, internal reservoir\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLift range\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1–3 in rear lift over stock\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRear\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eQuantity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSold individually (2 required per vehicle)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVehicle fitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2007–2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser; 2003–2024 Toyota 4Runner; 2003–2023 Lexus GX\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e4 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eUPC\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e840103403076\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThis shock suits 2007–2014 Toyota FJ Cruiser, 2003–2024 Toyota 4Runner, and 2003–2023 Lexus GX owners running 1–3 inches of rear lift who want a vehicle-specific, rebuildable monotube shock for improved on- and off-road damping over stock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThis shock does not fit vehicles equipped with factory rear air suspension. Those applications require a rear coil conversion (ICON part 56110) and rear coil springs (ICON part 52700 or 52800) before installation. Vehicles equipped with the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) additionally require the ICON rear track bar (ICON part 54200). This shock is not compatible with lift heights outside the 1–3 inch rear range.

A rear coil conversion using ICON part 56110 and rear coil springs (ICON part 52700 or 52800) are required before this shock can be installed on an air-suspension-equipped vehicle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDo KDSS-equipped 4Runners or GX models need any additional parts?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. Vehicles equipped with the Kinetic Dynamic Suspension System (KDSS) require the ICON rear track bar (ICON part 54200) in addition to this shock absorber.
