ICON 96-02 Toyota 4Runner 2.5 Series Shocks VS RR Coilover Kit

This is the ICON 2.5 Series VS Standard Travel Remote Reservoir Coilover Kit for your 1996-2002 Toyota 4Runner. If you're looking to give your 4Runner a significant upgrade in suspension performance, especially for off-road use or when fitting larger tires, this kit is a solid choice. It replaces your stock front shocks and springs with a complete, integrated coilover assembly that offers adjustable lift and improved damping control.

What sets these coilovers apart is the larger 2.5-inch shock body and the external remote reservoirs. The bigger shock body means more oil capacity and a larger piston area, which helps dissipate heat more effectively and provides better control over bumps and rough terrain. The remote reservoirs are mounted separately and connected to the main shock body, allowing them to hold even more oil and keep the shock cooler during extended use, preventing fade. ICON tunes these specifically for the 4Runner, so you get a sport-tuned feel that works well both on the pavement and when you're exploring trails. You can also dial in your ride height, from stock to about 3 inches of lift, which is perfect for clearing larger tires.

Installation is designed to be straightforward, with a 100% bolt-on process that doesn't require any cutting or welding. The components are well-made, using 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum for machined parts and a corrosion-resistant CAD-plated shock body with a tough 7/8-inch induction-hardened, chrome-plated shaft. For smooth operation and longevity, FK Rod End bearings are used. To get the best balanced feel front-to-rear, ICON recommends pairing these front coilovers with their 2.0 or 2.5 Series rear shocks.
