From ICON
2003-2012 Ram 2500/3500 2.5 Inch Stage 1 Suspension System is ICON's entry level system. This system not only levels out the stance, it increases ride quality and performance both on and off road. The Stage 1 System is comprised of dual rate coil springs, polyurethane bumpstops, sway bar drop brackets, and ICON 2.0 Aluminum Series internal reservoir shocks. This entry level system is great for towing, rough construction site terrains, and country dirt roads all while keeping a smooth highway feel. With the endless hours ICON has spent testing and tuning our suspension components and shocks as a complete package, you can rest assured you have the best suspension solution on the market.
Why this Stage 1 Suspension System
An ICON suspension system is a matched package: ICON tunes every component in the box for the 2003-2013 Ram 2500/3500 together, so lift height, spring rate and damping arrive as one calibrated setup instead of parts collected from three brands. Higher Stage numbers add components (upper control arms, rear shocks, leaf or coil springs, adjusters) on the same base system.

Questions
IR, RR, PB: what is the difference?
IR is an internal reservoir, a self-contained monotube body. RR is a remote reservoir connected by hose and PB is a piggyback reservoir bolted to the body; both add oil volume and cooling so damping stays consistent on long rough sections. IR is lighter and simpler; RR and PB resist fade.
CDCV, CDEV, CDXS: which adjuster?
CDCV is a 10-position manual compression knob. CDEV is an electronic compression valve controlled by the ICON Intelligent Control module and phone app, which reads speed and terrain and adjusts on the fly; it requires the IIC install kit. CDXS is a manual dual-circuit adjuster with 10 marked detents each for compression and rebound. Shocks without a code run ICON's fixed vehicle-specific valving.
Can these be serviced?
Yes. Every ICON shock and coilover is rebuildable and revalveable through ICON factory shock service. The shock warranty is 12 months against manufacturing defects.
What does the Stage number mean?
Stage 1 is the base system for this truck and each higher Stage adds components on top of it: upper control arms, rear shocks or springs, adjusters. The exact contents vary by platform and are listed in ICON's description above.
Do I need an alignment?
Yes. Any change to front ride height requires a four-wheel alignment after installation.
Who installs it?
ICON requires professional installation and does not cover failures caused by improper installation. Plan on a shop with a lift and an alignment rack for anything that changes ride height.
