ICON V.S. 2.5 Series Front Coilover Kit for 1996-2004 Toyota Tacoma 4WD/PreRunner Long Travel

The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series Front Coilover Kit is a remote-reservoir coilover pair engineered for 1996–2004 Toyota Tacoma 4WD and PreRunner trucks already equipped with a +3.5" over long travel front suspension kit, delivering vehicle-specific valving and 0–3" of ride-height adjustability. This kit is sold as a pair and fits common aftermarket long travel front suspension setups; it will not fit stock-width control arms or 2WD Tacoma models with five lug studs.

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.

Built Around the Long Travel Platform

The 2.5" shock body provides greater piston area than stock components, which translates directly to more consistent damping force across the wider suspension travel that long travel kits demand. Where a stock-diameter shock can fade under repeated high-speed hits, the larger bore maintains control through successive compressions, keeping the front end planted on washboard, whoops, and rocky two-track alike.

Remote Reservoirs for Sustained Performance

Each coilover carries a remote reservoir that increases fluid volume and surface area, allowing heat to dissipate during extended off-road use. Cooler fluid means damping characteristics stay consistent from the first mile of a trail to the last, a meaningful difference on long desert runs or multi-day overlanding routes where repeated shock cycles would otherwise cause fade in a standard shock body.

Precision Components, Fully Rebuildable

CNC-machined 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum components keep unsprung weight in check while resisting corrosion. CAD-plated shock bodies and 7/8" induction-hardened, chrome-plated shafts resist wear and surface corrosion. FK rod end bearings reduce deflection and extend service life compared to rubber bushings. Because the shocks are fully rebuildable and re-tunable, the kit can be serviced and revalved as the truck's build evolves rather than replaced outright.

Features

• Vehicle-specific valving: tuned for the 1996–2004 Tacoma 4WD/PreRunner long travel application
• 0–3" ride-height adjustability: threaded collar allows stance tuning without changing springs
• ICON-engineered coil springs: matched springs included with the coilover pair
• Remote reservoirs: increase fluid volume for cooler, more consistent damping during heavy use
• 6061 aluminum CNC components: CAD-plated bodies with 7/8" induction-hardened, chrome-plated shafts
• Fully rebuildable and re-tunable: serviceable shocks that can be revalved as the build changes

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This coilover kit is built for 1996–2004 Toyota Tacoma 4WD and PreRunner owners who have already installed a +3.5" over long travel front suspension kit and need a shock matched to that extended travel, particularly builders who prioritize sustained off-road performance and want a rebuildable, re-tunable shock they can service as the build evolves.

This kit will not fit Tacomas running stock-width control arms, and it will not fit 2WD Tacoma models with five lug studs. It is not intended as a bolt-in upgrade for a stock or mild-lift front suspension setup.

Common Questions

Do these coilovers include springs?

Yes. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series Front Coilover Kit ships with ICON-engineered coil springs matched to the coilover pair. No separate spring purchase is required for the front coilover assembly itself.

What long travel kits does this coilover pair fit?

The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series coilovers are designed to fit common aftermarket front long travel kits built around a +3.5" over long travel geometry. They will not fit stock-width control arms; confirm your specific long travel kit's compatibility before ordering.

Can these shocks be rebuilt or revalved later?

Yes. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series coilovers are fully rebuildable and re-tunable. A qualified shop can service and revalve them as driving conditions or the truck's build change, without requiring full replacement of the coilover pair.

What is the California Proposition 65 warning about?

This product carries a California Proposition 65 warning: it contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm. This warning is required for sale into California and applies to the coilover kit as supplied.
