ICON Vehicle Dynamics Coilover Conversion Kit for 2005+ Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty

ICON Vehicle Dynamics invests countless hours of in-house research and development, along with thousands of miles of on and off-road testing in order for its engineers to cultivate a thorough understanding of each development platform. Thus, ICON’s engineers lead the industry when it comes to Ford Super Duty performance suspension systems, shock absorbers and their true capabilities. The latest addition to the ICON Vehicle Dynamics line of Ford Super Duty products includes a collection of 2.5-inch Remote Reservoir Bolt-In Coilover Conversion Kits that add a new level of performance and adjustability to the 2005+ F-250 and F-350 platform.

The advantage of a coilover conversion kit is that it’s designed to increase the overall damping ability of the vehicle while allowing for user-defined ride height adjustment. The 2.5-inch Remote Reservoir Coilover Dampers featured in these kits are based on ICON’s 2.5 VS Series shock line, which means that Eibach coil springs, FK Rod End bearings and vehicle-specific valving come standard. Quality machined components and a fully serviceable design make for a product that will withstand the test of time yet retain the ability to be rebuilt or revalved as necessary. ICON’s CDC (Compression Damping Control) Valve option adds to the adjustability of these coilover conversion kits, allowing the end-user to adjust the dampening characteristics of the vehicle with the turn of a knob.

ICON Parts Installed
These new 2.5-inch Remote Reservoir Bolt-In Coilover Conversion Kits are available for 2005 and newer Super Duty F-250 and F-350 4WD trucks. Available lift ranges include 2.5-3-inch (Part #61720, 61720C) as well as 4-5.5-inch (Part #61721, 61721C). Each kit is available as an individual component that can be used in place of the ICON 2.5- and 4.5-inch Dual Rate Front Coil Spring Kits, or as a part of several staged systems that have been added to ICON’s line of Ford Super Duty products (contact STILLEN for more information.)

With the new 2016 Nissan Titan XD, Nissan looks to jump back into the fray of the highly-contested pickup truck market.  Shooting for a nice balance between the efficiency and livability of a ½ ton and the performance and capability of a ¾ ton, the 2016 Nissan Titan XD could serve as the “Mama Bear” option to buyers shopping around the offerings of other more-established competitors.  In other words, it seems just right.

 

The Cummins Diesel is Coming for You, Big Three!

What really makes the 2016 Nissan Titan XD stand out is the all-new Cummins 5.0-liter turbocharged V8 diesel engine sitting pretty under the hood (yes, we said a Cummins diesel).  A Cummins diesel brings a level of heritage, performance, and reliability to the new Titan, much like it did for Dodge a few decades back.  All in all, the engine produces 310 HP and a whopping 555 lb-ft of torque.  That – combined with an AAM 9.84-inch rear axle and a 3.916 gear ratio – helps give the 2016 Nissan Titan XD the ability to tow nearly 13,000 pounds or carry over 2,000 pounds in its bed.  Pretty impressive stuff, if you ask us.

The Key to Success

A big key to the future success of the new 2016 Nissan Titan XD is a flourishing aftermarket presence.  Luckily, Nissan appears to be actively supporting its consumers’ desire to modify their rides.  Earlier last year, Nissan invited some major players in the aftermarket truck scene to a Titan “measuring session” to help aid them in manufacturing future accessories.  Well, we have now begun to enjoy the delicious fruits of this labor with an all-new 2016 Nissan Titan XD lift kit from ICON Vehicle Dynamics!

 

An Icon in the Business

ICON Vehicle Dynamics is one of the world’s premier performance suspension manufacturers.  They specialize in aftermarket suspension components for trucks, SUV’s, and pure off-road machines.  ICON’s products seek to improve your vehicle’s drivability, handling, and general performance in real world situations.  Their new 2016 Nissan Titan XD lift kit is certainly no exception to this rule.

 

2016 Nissan Titan XD Lift Kit from ICON Vehicle Dynamics

A Titan Amongst Giants?

The 2016 Nissan Titan XD has some pretty stiff competition in an already-saturated pickup truck market.  However, the emergence of a strong aftermarket support system – starting with this new ICON Vehicle Dynamics lift kit – may be just the push the Titan needs to help it really live up to its name.
