21-23 Ford Bronco ICON 48700C Front, 1.5-4” Lift, 2.5 VS RR/CDCV Coilover Kit
The ICON 48700C Front Coilover Kit for the 2021-2023 Ford Bronco is the ultimate suspension upgrade, engineered to enhance both off-road capability and on-road comfort. These V.S. 2.5 Series remote reservoir coilovers are equipped with ICON's exclusive Compression Damping Control Valves (CDCV), offering adjustable shock performance tailored to your driving style. With a lift range of 3-4” for non-Sasquatch Broncos and 2-3” for Sasquatch-equipped Broncos, this coilover kit allows for larger, more aggressive wheel and tire combinations while optimizing suspension performance. The larger 2.5” shock body and remote reservoirs increase oil volume and heat dissipation, providing maximum travel and preventing damper fade under extreme conditions. When paired with ICON 2.5 Series rear coilovers, your Bronco will achieve balanced vehicle control for the best driving experience both on and off-road.
