Each shock combines a nitrogen-charged monotube body with a piggyback reservoir and ICON's externally adjustable CDC Valve, giving drivers on-the-fly compression control without removing a wheel.\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 range lets a driver dial in a firmer setting for high-speed trail running and back down to a more compliant tune for daily highway miles, with no tools, no pulling the shock, and no sending it out for revalving. For drivers whose use shifts between loaded tow days and empty weekend runs, that adjustability has real practical value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eThe Bump Zone: Extra Damping Where It Counts Most\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA 6061 billet aluminum manifold positioned just below the shock's top cap creates what ICON calls an internal Bump Zone. As the shock approaches full compression, oil routing through this manifold adds 20% more damping force. That increase is specifically targeted at the end of the stroke: the point where a lifted truck hitting a sharp obstacle at speed is most likely to bottom out harshly. The result is better chassis control at high velocity without stiffening the mid-stroke ride that covers most normal driving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Last and Built to Be Serviced\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shock body is CNC-machined 1026 DOM steel with a CAD plating for corrosion resistance. The shaft is 7\/8-inch diameter, induction hardened and chrome plated. PTFE-lined spherical bearings handle the mounting interfaces, and 5WT shock oil maintains consistent damping across a wide temperature range. Both shocks are 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable, so a worn seal or a desired tune change means a rebuild, not a replacement pair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCDC Valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10 levels of externally adjustable compression damping, turned by hand\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\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePiggyback reservoir:\u003c\/strong\u003e Improves heat dissipation to reduce shock fade during extended off-road use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e7\/8\" hardened shaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e Induction hardened, chrome plated for durability and corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e1026 DOM steel body:\u003c\/strong\u003e CAD plated, precision machined for maximum durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRebuildable and revalveable:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% serviceable; 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\u003e97702CP-CB\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2009–2014 Ford F-150, rear, 6\" lift\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSold as\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePair\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\u003eBody material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e1026 DOM steel, CAD plated\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eManifold material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e6061 billet aluminum\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShock oil\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e5WT premium grade\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCompression adjustment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e10 levels via external CDC Valve\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBump Zone damping increase\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e20% additional force near full compression\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCharge\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eNitrogen\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e28 lb (pair)\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 2009–2014 Ford F-150 owners running a 6-inch rear lift who want externally adjustable compression damping and improved high-speed off-road control without sacrificing street manners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThese shocks are rear-position only and are not a fit for F-150 model years outside 2009–2014, for lift heights other than 6 inches, or for the front axle.

Both the length and the damping tune are set for that application; they are not intended for other lift heights or for stock-height trucks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does the CDC Valve do and how is it adjusted?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe CDC (Compression Damping Control) Valve on these ICON V.S. 2.5 shocks restricts oil flow into the piggyback reservoir, creating 10 distinct levels of compression damping force. Adjustment is made externally by turning a knob on the shock body, with no tools or disassembly required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat is the Bump Zone and why does it matter?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Bump Zone is an internal feature created by a 6061 billet aluminum manifold near the top of each shock. As the shock nears full compression, oil routed through the manifold increases damping force by 20%, helping prevent harsh bottom-outs when the suspension compresses rapidly at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eCan these shocks be rebuilt or revalved?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Aluminum Series shocks are 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable. That means worn seals can be replaced and the damping tune can be changed by a qualified shop without replacing the entire shock body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs there a California Proposition 65 warning for this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes.
