21-23 Ford Bronco ICON 48700 Front, 3-4” Lift, 2.5 VS RR Coilover Kit
The ICON 48700 Front Coilover Kit is the ultimate suspension upgrade for the 2021-2023 Ford Bronco, offering exceptional off-road performance and on-road comfort. These V.S. 2.5 Series remote reservoir coilovers provide a lift range of up to 3-4" for non-Sasquatch Broncos and 2-3" for Sasquatch-equipped Broncos. Designed with vehicle-specific shock length and valving, these coilovers maximize wheel travel and enhance ride quality. The larger 2.5” shock body and remote reservoir significantly increase oil volume and heat dissipation, providing superior performance and minimizing damper fade, even during extended off-road use. Paired with ICON’s rear 2.5 Series coilovers, the Bronco achieves a balanced, controlled ride, whether you're tackling rough trails or cruising the highway.
