Icon Suspension 4runner Review

Hi all, finally getting to modding my 2016 4runner. I am between my phone and computer so it is difficult.


WHERE IS THE NEW XO GLADIATOR? This beauty has

The 4runner will be mostly road driven.

Icon suspension 4runner review. And the ride with it at the current setting is great. Yes, the icon suspension likes speed! Icon vehicle dynamics is a premiere performance suspension manufacturer specializing in aftermarket suspension components for trucks, suv's and off road suspension development.

We immediately felt any settings changes to a softer or stiffer setting. The rear probably would have been just about perfect if the shocks were not high pressurized. There are quite a few guys over at 120 running icon suspension.

With icon, you have many options to rebuild many components and add to your suspension on the fly. Icon vehicle dynamics® is a recognized leader in revolutionary performance suspension systems. I've owned a full icon suspension on my 2011 tacoma and now bilstein 6112's on my 4runner.

I am personally only running their rear coils on my setup. All of the parts aren’t necessarily interchangeable, but. It is a little stiff but that is the nature of the digressive icon suspension.

Lane changing is smooth and tight. The kit was initially installed in. The low floor in the back of the 4runner is great for getting your gear and tools in and out, but it leaves little room for larger rear shocks underneath the vehicle.

Icon being the standup company that they are, gave me a discount on some upgraded rear shocks. I am narrowing down my choices for a suspension lift for a 2018 4runner without kdss. But i love the front suspension setup!

I am going to install 17x8.5 method racing wheels and 285/70/17 toyos. At high speeds and big drops, the icon definitely performs. Because the suspension is tighter, your lane shifting, braking, and feeling of the road are much more responsive.

Northwest here, so won't be doing any high speed dessert off roading or significant rock climbing. I drive my truck 90% in the city as a commuter, 10 % on the weekends into the woods and off roading. Some of their parts are definitely better than other though, most specifically their rear shocks.

Both choices are about $100.00 of each other. The 4runner’s front suspension is very similar to that of the toyota tacoma, the dearly departed fj cruiser and even the lexus gx. With the 3.5″ suspension lift, you just swap out parts like end links, track bars, remote reservoirs, etc.

Freeway driving with the icons is smooth and incredibly responsive. We’re not saying that the suspension is terrible on a stock toyota 4runner, actually we’re saying quite the opposite, with a factory setup like we have on the trail edition, paired with kdss that’s constantly working to keep the vehicle level, it gives suspension gurus like our friends at icon a playground of opportunity. The company is a sema member as well as the premier supplier of suspension components to the leading vehicle manufacturers, namely ford, dodge, jeep, gm, etc.

Icon vehicle dynamics carries a full line of tubular and billet uniball upper control arms, shock absorbers, coilover shocks, and more. At faster speeds, the icon suspension truly shines and the ride becomes even smoother. Icon’s cdc values can be adjusted to nine different settings.

This is a long term ownership review, checking in after about 30k miles of having the stage 9 rxt kit from icon vehicle dynamics on our 2006 toyota tacoma 4wd. These shocks are 2.5” in diameter and have independently adjustable compression and rebound. It was all thanks to our icon suspension.

I wouldn't say there's much of a difference, however, if you're going to do 6112's in the front, might as well do 5160's for the rear. While this suspension lift is not an actual lift kit, is does somewhat act as one being that it is rebuildable and adjustable. Mostly old logging roads and forest trails.
