Couldn't load pickup availability
The ICON Vehicle Dynamics 2.5 VS Coilover Kit is a bolt-on front suspension upgrade for 2015–2020 Ford F-150 2WD trucks, delivering 0–3 inches of adjustable lift height and vehicle-specific damping tuned for the lighter chassis of the 13th-generation F-150. The kit ships as a pair of front coilovers and is compatible with factory wheels and tires at all lift settings within the stated range.
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.
Vehicle-Specific Valving for the F-150 Platform
ICON developed the damping tune in this kit specifically for the reduced curb weight of the 2015-and-later F-150 aluminum body. A shock valved for a heavier truck will feel harsh and unpredictable on a lighter platform, so the F-150-specific calibration keeps the damping force proportional to actual chassis loads, and the truck rides composed on pavement and controlled on dirt rather than bouncing between extremes. The result is a sport-tuned feel that works across terrain types without requiring a separate on-road and off-road setting.
2.5" Shock Body and Eibach Springs
The 2.5-inch shock body provides greater internal piston area than the factory unit, which increases damping capacity and heat dissipation during sustained off-road use. ICON-engineered Eibach springs are matched to the shock tune and the F-150's spring perch geometry, so spring rate and damper behavior are calibrated together rather than mixed from separate sources. The 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum components are CNC machined, and the shock body carries a corrosion-resistant CAD plating with a 7/8-inch shaft, both details that matter for trucks driven in wet or salty conditions.
Adjustable Lift and Bolt-On Installation
Lift height is adjustable from 0 to 3 inches over stock by threading the lower spring perch, allowing the owner to set ride height for a specific wheel-and-tire combination without buying a different kit. ICON notes that factory wheels and tires clear at all settings, and recommends 33x11.50-inch tires as the practical aftermarket limit before fender trimming becomes necessary. Installation requires no drilling, cutting, or welding; all mounting points use existing factory locations. Pairing these front coilovers with ICON rear 2.0 Aluminum Series or 2.5 Series shocks balances damping front to rear for the best overall result.
Features
- Adjustable lift: 0–3 inches of ride-height adjustment via threaded spring perch
- Vehicle-specific valving: damping tune developed for the lighter 2015+ F-150 chassis

Who This Is For and Isn't
This kit suits 2015–2020 Ford F-150 owners running a rear-wheel-drive (2WD/RWD) configuration who want 0–3 inches of front lift with a meaningful improvement in ride quality and damping control over stock, whether the primary use is daily driving, overlanding, or light off-road. Power-Stroke diesel F-150 owners in the same year range can use this kit with a lift range of 0–2.5 inches.
This kit does not fit 4WD or 4x4 F-150 models. It covers the front suspension only; rear shocks are sold separately. Lift heights above 2 inches over stock may require aftermarket front upper control arms to maintain proper alignment, which are not included. Tires larger than 33x11.50 inches may require fender trimming or additional modifications.
Common Questions
Does this kit fit a 4WD F-150?
No. The ICON 2.5 VS Coilover Kit (SKU 91616) is compatible only with 2015–2020 Ford F-150 models in rear-wheel-drive (2WD/RWD) configuration. Four-wheel-drive F-150 applications require a different ICON kit designed for that drivetrain.
What lift height can I run with factory wheels and tires?
Factory wheels and tires clear at all lift settings within the 0–3-inch range this kit provides. ICON confirms factory fitment compatibility. If you move to aftermarket tires, the recommended limit before fender trimming becomes necessary is 33x11.50 inches.
Do I need upper control arms to install this kit?
At lift heights of 2 inches over stock or less, upper control arms are not required. Lift heights above 2 inches over stock may require aftermarket front upper control arms to maintain proper alignment geometry; those are sold separately and are not included in this kit.
Does the Power-Stroke diesel F-150 get the full 3-inch lift range?
No. F-150 models equipped with the Power-Stroke diesel engine have a lift height range of 0–2.5 inches over stock with this kit, not the full 0–3 inches available on gasoline-engine models. All other installation details remain the same.
Does this kit include rear shocks?
No. This kit covers the front suspension only and ships as a pair of front 2.5 VS coilovers. ICON recommends pairing it with ICON rear 2.0 Aluminum Series or 2.5 Series shocks for balanced front-to-rear damping, but those rear shocks are sold separately.
