ICON Stage 2 Suspension System with Billet UCA – 2003-2009 4Runner & 2007-2009 FJ Cruiser | K53052
Take your Toyota's suspension performance to the next level with the ICON Vehicle Dynamics Stage 2 Suspension System with Billet Upper Control Arms, part #K53052.
Designed specifically for the 2003-2009 Toyota 4Runner and 2007-2009 Toyota FJ Cruiser, the ICON Stage 2 system combines Extended Travel 2.5 Series front coilovers, billet aluminum upper control arms with Delta Joint, 2-inch rear lift coil springs, and matched 2.0 Aluminum Series rear shocks.
Compared with ICON's Stage 1 system, Stage 2 adds Extended Travel front coilovers and ICON billet upper control arms, providing increased front droop travel, improved suspension articulation and corrected suspension geometry for lifted applications.
The front coilovers provide 0-3.5 inches of adjustable lift, allowing you to dial in your desired ride height while improving wheel travel, damping control and overall vehicle performance both on and off road.

What Makes Stage 2 Different From Stage 1?
The ICON Stage 2 system builds on the Stage 1 suspension package with two important front suspension upgrades:
-
Extended Travel 2.5 Series front coilovers
-
ICON Billet Aluminum Upper Control Arms with Delta Joint
The Extended Travel coilovers provide additional front suspension droop and wheel travel compared with ICON's standard-travel Stage 1 coilovers.
Because the Extended Travel coilovers allow the front suspension to articulate farther, ICON requires its upper control arms as part of the system.
The result is a more capable front suspension with increased articulation while maintaining suspension geometry appropriate for a lifted vehicle.
Adjustable 0-3.5" Front Lift
The ICON 2.5 Series Extended Travel front coilovers provide 0 to 3.5 inches of adjustable front lift on a stock-equipped vehicle.
This allows you to adjust the front ride height based on your desired stance, tire size and vehicle configuration.
Unlike a basic spacer lift, the ICON system replaces the factory front shock and spring assembly with a performance coilover designed to improve:
-
Ride quality
-
Shock damping
-
Suspension travel
-
Vehicle control
-
Off-road performance
-
Front ride height
Front Lift Range: 0-3.5"
ICON notes that published coilover lift heights are based on a stock-equipped vehicle. Added weight from aftermarket bumpers, winches, skid plates and other accessories can affect actual ride height.
Extended Travel 2.5 Series Front Coilovers
Stage 2 upgrades the front suspension with ICON's Extended Travel 2.5 Series Vehicle-Specific Internal Reservoir Coilovers.
Compared with the standard-travel coilovers included with Stage 1, these shocks provide additional suspension travel and front droop.
Key features include:
-
2.5-inch shock body
-
Extended Travel design
-
Vehicle-specific shock tuning
-
Adjustable 0-3.5" ride height
-
Increased front droop travel
-
Corrosion-resistant CAD-plated shock body
-
Heavy-duty 7/8-inch shock shaft
-
6061 aircraft-grade aluminum CNC-machined components
-
FK Rod End bearings
-
Fully serviceable construction
The larger shock body and vehicle-specific tuning provide excellent damping and heat management for both street and off-road driving.
ICON Billet Upper Control Arms
The K53052 Stage 2 system includes ICON's premium billet aluminum upper control arms.
These control arms are designed to work with the Extended Travel coilovers and provide the additional articulation and suspension geometry needed when increasing front suspension travel and ride height.
The billet UCAs are CNC machined from 6061 aluminum for an excellent combination of strength, precision and appearance.
They also incorporate ICON's Delta Joint at the outer mounting point.
ICON Delta Joint
ICON's patented Delta Joint combines characteristics of a traditional ball joint with the increased angularity normally associated with a uniball.
Unlike an exposed traditional uniball, the Delta Joint uses a protective design intended to improve durability in daily-driven and off-road environments.
Key Delta Joint features include:
-
Heavy-duty high-angle joint design
-
Increased angularity compared with a conventional ball joint
-
Metal-on-metal construction
-
Greaseable design
-
Zinc-plated housing for corrosion resistance
-
Protective grease seal
-
Helps keep dirt, water and other contaminants away from internal components
-
Designed for quiet operation
-
Excellent for daily-driven and off-road vehicles
This makes the Delta Joint particularly attractive for vehicles that need increased suspension articulation without sacrificing the durability and low-maintenance characteristics desirable for everyday use.
2" Rear Lift Coil Springs
The K53052 system includes a pair of ICON 2-inch rear lift coil springs.
These springs complement the adjustable front suspension while providing increased rear ride height and improved suspension performance.
The result is a balanced suspension package designed to improve both the stance and performance of the 4Runner or FJ Cruiser.
2.0 Aluminum Series Rear Shocks
ICON pairs the Extended Travel front suspension with 2.0 Aluminum Series Vehicle-Specific Internal Reservoir rear shocks.
Rear shock features include:
-
2.0-inch aluminum shock body
-
Internal reservoir design
-
Vehicle-specific tuning
-
Heavy-duty 5/8-inch shock shaft
-
Designed for 1-3 inches of rear lift
-
Fully serviceable construction
The rear shocks are specifically tuned to complement the front coilovers, helping provide balanced damping and vehicle control from front to rear.

Wheel & Tire Recommendations
ICON confirms that OEM wheels and tires are compatible with the K53052 suspension system.
For aftermarket wheel and tire combinations, ICON recommends:
17" Wheels
-
17x8.5"
-
4.75" backspacing
-
0mm offset
18" Wheels
-
18x9"
-
5.00" backspacing
-
0mm offset
20" Wheels
-
20x9"
-
5.00" backspacing
-
0mm offset
Recommended Aftermarket Tire Size:
33" x 11.50"
Larger tires may fit, but ICON notes that fender trimming and other modifications may be required.
Actual tire clearance can vary depending on wheel width, offset, backspacing, suspension height and vehicle configuration.
Expedition Coil Option for Heavier Vehicles
ICON identifies an optional 700 lb/in Expedition Coil for heavier-equipped vehicles.
This can be useful for 4Runners and FJ Cruisers carrying substantial additional front-end weight from accessories such as:
-
Steel bumpers
-
Winches
-
Skid plates
-
Recovery equipment
-
Other permanently installed accessories
Spring selection should be based on the vehicle's actual configuration and additional weight.
Fully Serviceable ICON Shocks
The ICON shocks included with the K53052 system are fully serviceable.
Unlike disposable replacement shocks, ICON shocks can be serviced and rebuilt as components wear over time, helping extend the usable life of the suspension system.
Bolt-On Installation
The ICON Stage 2 Suspension System is designed as a bolt-on suspension upgrade.
No cutting or welding is required.
A professional wheel alignment should be performed after installation and final ride-height adjustment.
