It's a really big secret apparently. Released the info and then pulled it. Not ready for consumer purchase yet. Was some interesting stuff though.

From what I heard, they showed some stuff off at TRR. Sucks for those of us that didn't get to go. Eventually we'll see the new setup. There's a couple touches that need to be finalized from what I heard. Should be exciting though.

Are those that saw it at TRR sworn to secrecy?


Good Question, doubt anyone saw this at TRR or they would be talking.

From the picture I saw and the Description given by ICON, this will have comparable travel numbers with the Cantilever set ups at a much lower cost. I do see possible problems with the upper shock mount, the way these shocks mount off the front there will be additional leverage on the top shock mount. Not really a issue for me I can fab up a gusset for the top shock mount or maybe the will add a gusset to the set up. I have seen some pretty cool ICON Jeep shock mounts.

Come on ICON spill the beans - let see some pictures and video

I just saw a couple days back on facebook that they were tuning in Barstow with SDHQ. I wonder what they were running on those trucks (rear suspension wise).

if its what they had on the ICON truck at TRR which was a prototype rear shock, its INCREDIBLE! I rode in the truck around the back half and hands down king and fox better watch out, icon is going to take the lead.
