ICON V.S. 2.5 Rear Piggyback Reservoir CDCV Shocks for 2016-2023 Nissan Titan XD

The ICON Vehicle Dynamics V.S. 2.5 Aluminum Series Rear Piggyback Reservoir Shocks with CDC Valve (SKU 87705CP) are a vehicle-specific pair engineered for 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD trucks running 0–1.5 inches of rear lift. Each shock is tuned in both length and damping specifically for this application, delivering controlled off-road performance and a composed street ride from the same setup.

Tuned for This Truck, Not Adapted from a Universal Fit

ICON's Vehicle Specific (V.S.) configuration means the valving, length, and damping curve are dialed in for the Titan XD's rear suspension geometry and weight, not borrowed from a nearby application. That specificity matters on technical terrain: a shock that bottoms harshly or rides too stiffly under load undermines confidence precisely when the truck needs it most. The one-piece digressive piston and vehicle-specific valving work together to manage both slow trail crawling and high-speed washboard without compromise.

Bump Zone Technology Prevents Harsh Bottom-Outs

A 6061 billet aluminum manifold positioned just below the shock's top cap creates ICON's internal Bump Zone. As the shock approaches full compression, this zone increases damping force by 20 percent, cushioning the transition before the suspension runs out of travel. For a truck carrying gear or towing on rough roads, that progressive resistance is the difference between a controlled landing and a jarring impact that stresses the frame and cargo.

Ten Levels of On-the-Fly Compression Adjustment

The externally mounted CDC (Compression Damping Control) Valve restricts oil flow into the piggyback reservoir, giving ten distinct compression damping settings accessible with a turn of a knob. No tools or disassembly are required. Dialing up damping for a loaded highway run or backing it off for a loose-surface trail takes seconds. The piggyback reservoir itself increases oil volume over a standard monotube, which improves heat dissipation and reduces fade during sustained off-road use. Premium 5WT shock oil maintains consistent damping across a wide temperature range, so cold-morning starts and hot desert runs behave predictably.

Features

• CDC Valve: 10-level external compression damping adjustment with no tools required
• Internal Bump Zone: 6061 billet aluminum manifold adds 20% damping force near full compression to resist bottom-outs
• Piggyback Reservoir: Nitrogen-charged monotube design with reservoir for improved heat dissipation and reduced fade
• 7/8" Shock Shaft: Induction-hardened, chrome-plated for durability and corrosion resistance
• Aircraft-Grade Construction: CNC-machined 6061 aluminum components and one-piece impact-extruded aluminum cylinders
• Fully Rebuildable and Revalveable: PTFE-lined spherical bearings and application-specific mounting hardware included

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

These shocks suit 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD owners running stock ride height or up to 1.5 inches of rear lift who want adjustable, high-performance damping for mixed on-road and off-road use, particularly those carrying heavy loads or running technical terrain where bottom-out control matters.

These shocks are not compatible with rear lift heights above 1.5 inches on the Titan XD, and they cover the rear axle only. Front shocks are a separate purchase. This listing does not include coil springs, front shocks, or any other suspension components.

Common Questions

What years and model does this shock fit?

The ICON 87705CP rear shocks fit 2016 through 2023 Nissan Titan XD trucks with 0 to 1.5 inches of rear lift. They are not confirmed for the standard Titan (non-XD) or for lift heights above 1.5 inches at the rear.

How many shocks are included in this listing?

This listing includes a pair (two rear shocks) configured for left and right installation on the 2016–2023 Nissan Titan XD. Front shocks and springs are sold separately.

What does the CDC Valve do and how is it adjusted?

The CDC (Compression Damping Control) Valve on these ICON rear shocks restricts oil flow into the piggyback reservoir, creating 10 distinct levels of compression damping. Adjustment is external and tool-free: turning the knob on the valve changes the setting without removing the shock from the vehicle.

Can these shocks be rebuilt or revalved if they wear out?

Yes. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series shocks are 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable, meaning worn seals or oil can be replaced and the damping tune can be changed by a qualified shop rather than replacing the entire shock body.

Does this product require a Proposition 65 warning?

Yes. In accordance with California law, this product carries a Proposition 65 warning: it contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm.
