Two fitment windows apply: 0–1\" rear lift on Ram 2500 trucks equipped with rear coil springs, and 3\" rear lift on Ram 2500 trucks equipped with factory rear air springs.

That extra resistance controls the energy spike that causes harsh bottom-outs on rough terrain, keeping the suspension composed during high-speed washboard, sudden ledge drops, or loaded towing over broken pavement. The one-piece digressive piston uses vehicle-specific valving to balance that off-road control with a compliant street ride.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eElectronic Compression Damping from Inside the Cab\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Compression Damping Electronic Valve (CDEV) is an infinitely variable electronic valve that adjusts compression damping in less than 40 milliseconds. Powered by the ICON Intelligent Control (IIC) system and the ICON mobile app, it reads an onboard G-force sensor and gyroscope to predict terrain changes and update shock settings automatically based on user-defined algorithms. The result is active damping that responds faster than a driver can react, without requiring a manual adjustment stop. Note: CDEV operation requires the separately sold IIC Install Kit and CDEV-equipped front shocks, and the ICON Intelligent Control app requires an iOS device.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Last and Be Rebuilt\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shock cylinder is a one-piece, hard-anodized, impact-extruded aluminum tube that resists corrosion and holds a consistent finish over years of use. The 7\/8\" shock shaft is induction hardened and chrome plated for durability under repeated cycling. A piggyback reservoir improves heat dissipation during prolonged off-road use, reducing shock fade on extended runs. Premium 5WT shock oil maintains consistent damping across a wide temperature range. Every V.S. 2.5 Aluminum Series shock is fully rebuildable and re-tunable, so the investment extends well beyond the first set of seals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCDEV electronic valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e infinitely variable compression damping, adjustable from inside the cab via ICON Intelligent Control app\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal Bump Zone:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6061-billet aluminum manifold adds 20% damping force near full compression to resist harsh bottom-outs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOne-piece hard-anodized cylinder:\u003c\/strong\u003e impact-extruded aluminum construction for corrosion resistance and consistent finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e7\/8\" chrome-plated shaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e induction hardened for durability under repeated suspension cycling\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePiggyback reservoir:\u003c\/strong\u003e improves heat dissipation and reduces shock fade during extended off-road use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully rebuildable and re-tunable:\u003c\/strong\u003e PTFE-lined spherical bearings and application-specific mounting hardware included\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\u003e217704EP\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2014–2026 Ram 2500\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\u003eLift Range (Coil Spring)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e0–1\" rear lift\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLift Range (Air Ride)\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3\" rear lift\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShock Body Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2.5\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShaft Diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e7\/8\"\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShaft Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eInduction hardened, chrome plated\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCylinder Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eHard-anodized impact-extruded aluminum (one-piece)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCNC Components\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e6061 aircraft-grade aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShock Oil\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePremium grade 5WT\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCDEV Response Time\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLess than 40ms\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eQuantity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePair (2 shocks)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping Weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e35 lb\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\"\u003eThese shocks suit 2014–2026 Ram 2500 owners running 0–1\" rear lift with coil springs, or 3\" rear lift with factory rear air springs, who want electronically adjustable compression damping and active terrain response for mixed on-road and off-road use.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThese shocks do not fit Ram 2500 trucks outside the 2014–2026 model years, and they are not compatible with lift heights other than 0–1\" (coil) or 3\" (air ride) as stated.
