Description
DescriptionWhen the JT Gladiator reached the market, ICON was determined to come up with a lift kit for the new model. Using their accelerated “ICON1K” R&D program they were able to develop the ICON Vehicle Dynamics 2.5in Lift Kit. This proven and highly tested lift kit was designed to improve both on and off-road handling and performance. By using dual-rate coil springs, ICON’s 2.5in Lift Kit maintains a reliable and consistent ride, even under heavy articulation. ICON’s dual-rate coil springs carry a Lifetime Guarantee against sagging or breaking. The lift eliminates the factory rake by leveling the front with the rear. When selected, rear control arms are available with either billet or tubular construction. Depending on the Stage you choose, ICON’s 2.5in Lift can either be a great entry level or a complete performance kit.
Many states have laws that limit the maximum height of a lifted vehicle. Never exceed the legal height limit.
Stage 1: ICON Vehicle Dynamicsﾒs Stage 1 2.5in Lift Kit features dual-rate coil springs in the front, and coil spacers in the rear. Dual-rate coil springs make for a smooth, reliable ride even under heavy articulation off-road. Paired with ICON’s 2.0 VS IR shocks, rear sway bar relocation kit, and front sway bar links, this simple lift kit is designed to perform.
Stage 2: The Stage 2 lift kit gives you everything from the Stage 1, but with the added benefit of ICON’s rear dual-rate coil springs.
Stage 3: In addition to all of the components from the Stage 2 kit, the Stage 3 also includes fixed length front lower control arms for improved suspension flex and handling.
Stage 4: By front and rear adjustable track bars, the Stage 4 kit features all the benefits of the Stage 3, but with the ability to precisely center the axles under your Jeep. Correct axle alignment improves handling and ride comfort, while reducing harshness and unnecessary wear.
Stage 5: The Stage 5 lift kit includes front upper, rear upper, and rear lower adjustable control arms. The adjustable rear control arms are available with either a Billet or Tubular construction.
Stage 6: The Stage 6 lift features all of the components of the Stage 4, but with ICON’s 2.5 VS remote reservoir shocks. Remote reservoir shocks can handle heavy off-road abuse because of their improved cooling and reduced shock fade.
Stage 7: By taking the Stage 5 kit and adding ICON’s 2.5 VS remote reservoir shocks, the Stage 7 is a high-performance lift. Just like the Stage 5, the adjustable rear control arms are available with either a Billet or Tubular construction.
Stage 8: Just like the Stage 5 & Stage 7 kits, the Stage 8 includes all control arms, track bars, and dual-rate springs. However, this kit includes ICON’s 2.5 VS RR CDCV shocks. Compression Damping Control Valves (CDCV) allow you to adjust the shock oil flow with the twist of a knob.
