ICON V.S. 3.0 Series Front Coilover Kit with CDEV for 2021-2026 Ford F-150 Raptor

The ICON V.S. 3.0 Series Front Coilover Kit with CDEV is a vehicle-specific front suspension upgrade for the 2021–2026 Ford F-150 Raptor (Gen 3), providing 1–3 inches of adjustable front lift height. The kit pairs a 3.0 Series coilover body and ICON-engineered barreled coil spring with an electronically controlled Compression Damping Electronic Valve (CDEV) that replaces the factory active shock system with a more precise, driver-adjustable alternative.

More Shaft Travel, Better Packaging

The Gen 3 Raptor's front geometry required a full coilover redesign rather than a carry-over from the previous generation. ICON used that redesign to increase shaft travel and adopt a barreled coil spring, which maximizes travel within a more compact package. For the buyer, more shaft travel means the suspension can absorb larger impacts before reaching its limits, and the tighter packaging keeps the coilover within the OEM shock location for a bolt-in install without cutting or fabrication.

Damping Built Around the Raptor's Demands

Vehicle-specific valving and a piston significantly larger than the factory unit deliver a 50% increase in damping ability in the ride zone compared to the OEM shocks. ICON's multi-stage hydraulic Bump Zone exponentially increases damping force during the last 40% of compression travel, resisting bottom-out under hard hits. The 10-inch finned aluminum remote reservoir holds a generous volume of shock oil and increases surface area over a standard cylinder, keeping damping consistent during sustained off-road use when heat buildup would otherwise cause fade.

Active Electronic Damping Control Independent of Drive Mode

The CDEV is an infinitely variable electronically controlled valve that meters oil flow to regulate compression damping force. It reacts in under 40 milliseconds and is hydraulically calibrated specifically for the F-150 Raptor to maximize resolution and dynamic range. Powered by ICON Intelligent Control (IIC) and the ICON mobile app, the system reads an onboard G-force sensor and gyroscope to predict terrain and adjust damping automatically. Because the shocks are no longer wired directly to the Raptor's ECU, drivers can also set preferred damping independently from the vehicle's selected drive mode, with finer resolution than the factory system allows.

Features

• 1–3" adjustable front lift: coilover adjustment accommodates a range of lift heights on a stock-equipped vehicle
• CDEV with sub-40ms response: infinitely variable electronic compression damping valve, application-specific hydraulic calibration
• ICON Intelligent Control (IIC) integration: G-force sensor and gyroscope feed algorithms for automatic terrain-reactive adjustment via iOS app
• Multi-stage hydraulic Bump Zone: exponential damping increase in the last 40% of compression travel for bottom-out resistance
• 10" finned aluminum remote reservoir: increased oil volume and surface area for cooling and consistent damping
• Cerakoted body, hard-anodized piston and top cap; 1" CNC-machined shock shafts; FK Rod End COM12 spherical bearings
• Fully serviceable: supports revalves, rebuilds, and indefinite service life; bolt-in OEM shock location fitment

Specifications

Who This Is For and Isn't

This kit suits 2021–2026 Ford F-150 Raptor owners who want 1–3 inches of front lift with electronically adjustable compression damping that operates independently of the factory drive modes. It is designed for drivers who use OEM-size tires up to 35x12.50" or 37-inch tires (with the appropriate up travel limiters) and want a fully serviceable, bolt-in front suspension upgrade with active terrain-reactive control.

This kit does not include the required IIC kit or CDEV rear shocks, which must be purchased separately for the system to function. An iOS device is required to run the ICON Intelligent Control app; Android is not supported. Vehicles equipped with single-solenoid OE shock absorbers also require ICON solenoid mount kit part number 95020 (sold separately). Vehicles equipped with dual-solenoid OE shock absorbers require a damper interface device not currently offered by ICON. ADAS recalibration is required after installation. Running tires larger than 37 inches or aggressive off-road use with 37-inch tires requires up travel limiters (part numbers 611077 or 611078, sold separately). Advertised lift range applies to a stock-equipped vehicle; added accessories will alter the lift range. This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth anomalies, or other reproductive harm (Proposition 65).

Common Questions

Does this coilover kit replace the Raptor's factory active suspension system?

The ICON V.S. 3.0 Series front coilover kit with CDEV replaces the factory active shock absorbers and disconnects the shocks from the Raptor's ECU. The CDEV and ICON Intelligent Control system take over active damping adjustment, allowing the driver to set compression damping independently from the vehicle's selected drive mode and with finer resolution than the factory system provides.

What additional parts are required to complete the CDEV system?

This front coilover kit must be paired with a compatible IIC kit and CDEV rear shocks, both sold separately, for the electronic control system to function. Vehicles with single-solenoid OE shocks also require ICON solenoid mount kit 95020. Vehicles with dual-solenoid OE shocks require a damper interface device not currently available from ICON; a third-party unit is needed.

What tire sizes are compatible with this kit?

The ICON 3.0 Series front coilover kit is compatible with OEM wheels and tires. For 37-inch tires, up travel limiters part number 611077 are required in the front. For tires larger than 37 inches, or for very aggressive off-road use with 37-inch tires, up travel limiters part number 611078 are required. Tires larger than 35x12.50" on OEM wheels may require additional modifications.

Is an iOS device required to use the CDEV system?

Yes. The ICON Intelligent Control app, which powers the CDEV system on this front coilover kit, requires an iOS-operated device. Android devices are not supported. The CDEV valve itself can still function, but the IIC app and its terrain-adaptive algorithms require iOS.

Does installation require recalibration of driver assistance systems?

Yes. Installing the ICON V.S. 3.0 Series front coilover kit on the 2021–2026 Ford F-150 Raptor requires recalibration of the vehicle's Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) after installation. This recalibration is not included with the kit and should be performed by a qualified technician.
