The 2.5\" shock body and vehicle-specific valving deliver improved damping and lift-height adjustability that OE coilovers with top-mount spacers cannot match.\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. 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFull-Length Design Removes the Spacer Compromise\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOE coilovers paired with an 8\" lift typically require a top-mount spacer that shortens available wheel travel and can introduce harshness. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series coilovers are built to the correct application-specific length for the CST 8\" system, so the spacer is eliminated entirely. The result is more usable wheel travel and a suspension geometry that works the way the lift kit intends.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eVehicle-Specific Valving for On- and Off-Road Control\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eICON tunes the internal valving to the weight, geometry, and intended use of the Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 platform rather than applying a generic calibration. That specificity translates to superior low-speed body-roll control on pavement and composed damping over broken terrain off-road. Lift-height adjustability lets owners fine-tune ride height and stance after installation without replacing components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Be Serviced, Not Replaced\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 2.5\" shock body is finished with a corrosion-resistant CAD plating, and the 7\/8\" shaft is sized for durability under repeated off-road loading. The fully serviceable design supports revalves and rebuilds, extending service life well beyond what a sealed unit allows. ICON-engineered coil springs carry a lifetime guarantee against sagging or breakage. Pairing these front coilovers with ICON 2.0 Aluminum Series or 2.5 Series rear shocks balances damping front to rear across the GM 1500 platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2.5\" shock body:\u003c\/strong\u003e larger piston area over stock for improved damping ability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInternal reservoir:\u003c\/strong\u003e aids heat dissipation during sustained off-road use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLift-height adjustable:\u003c\/strong\u003e allows fine-tuning of vehicle stance post-install\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCAD-plated body with 7\/8\" shaft:\u003c\/strong\u003e corrosion-resistant finish for long service life\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully serviceable:\u003c\/strong\u003e supports revalves and rebuilds; not a sealed, replace-only unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBolt-in installation:\u003c\/strong\u003e mounts to OEM shock location without modification\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\u003e71002-CB\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\u003eReservoir type\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eInternal\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFinish\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCAD-plated shock body\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eQuantity\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePair (2 coilovers)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShipping weight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e58 lb\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eVehicle fitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 \/ GMC Sierra 1500\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eRequired lift system\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eCST 8\" lift suspension system; may be compatible with other 8\" lift kits\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFront\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 coilovers suit 2007–2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 owners who have installed a CST 8\" lift system and want a full-length coilover that eliminates the top-mount spacer, provides vehicle-specific damping, and supports long-term serviceability on and off-road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThese coilovers are application-specific to an 8\" lift environment and are not designed for stock-height or mildly lifted Silverado 1500 \/ Sierra 1500 trucks. They do not fit the rear position; a separate ICON rear shock is required for full front-to-rear balance. Compatibility with 8\" lift kits other than the CST system is possible but not guaranteed; confirm fitment with your lift kit documentation before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDo these coilovers work with lift kits other than the CST 8\" system?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe ICON V.S. 2.5 Series front coilovers (71002-CB) are specifically designed for the CST 8\" lift suspension system on 2007–2018 Silverado 1500 and Sierra 1500 trucks. Compatibility with other 8\" lift kits is possible but not guaranteed; confirm fitment against your lift kit's documentation before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhy does a full-length coilover matter on an 8\" lifted truck?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eAn 8\" lift typically forces OE coilovers to run with a top-mount spacer, which reduces available wheel travel and can compromise ride quality. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series coilovers are built to the correct application-specific length for this lift height, eliminating the spacer and restoring the wheel travel and damping geometry the system is designed to deliver.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eCan the ride height be adjusted after installation?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. The ICON V.S. 2.5 Series coilovers include lift-height adjustability, allowing owners to fine-tune vehicle stance after the initial installation. Coilover height references are based on a stock-equipped vehicle, so adjustments should account for any additional weight or accessories on the truck.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eAre these coilovers rebuildable, or do they need to be replaced when worn?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe ICON V.S. 2.5 Series coilovers are fully serviceable: they support revalves and rebuilds rather than requiring full replacement. The ICON-engineered coil springs also carry a lifetime guarantee against sagging or breakage, which further extends the usable life of the assembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat rear shocks pair with these front coilovers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eICON recommends pairing these front coilovers with ICON 2.0 Aluminum Series or 2.5 Series rear shocks on the GM 1500 platform. Matching the front and rear damping characteristics balances vehicle control and delivers the most consistent ride quality on and off-road.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ICON Vehicle Dynamics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50630789955654,"sku":"71002-CB","price":1836.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0691\/2203\/1686\/files\/e81e073db1abe92fbe1bf55c3e20bb8b_40045191-9d01-49dd-9fe0-132-sq.jpg?v=1791962037","url":"https:\/\/terrainvault.com\/products\/icon-v-s-2-5-series-front-coilover-kit-for-2007-2018-silverado-1500-si","provider":"TerrainVault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
