ICON Stage 3 Suspension System with Billet UCA – 2021-2026 Ford Bronco Sasquatch | K40013
Upgrade your Bronco with the ICON Vehicle Dynamics Stage 3 Suspension System, part #K40013, a premium suspension package engineered for improved ride quality, increased wheel travel and serious off-road performance.
Designed specifically for the 2021-2026 Ford Bronco equipped with the Sasquatch Package, the ICON Stage 3 system combines 2.5 Series Vehicle-Specific internal-reservoir front coilovers, billet aluminum upper control arms with Delta Joint Pro, and 2.5 Series Vehicle-Specific internal-reservoir rear coilovers with ICON triple-rate rear springs.
The system provides approximately 2-3 inches of front lift and 1.25-2.25 inches of rear lift over stock 4-door Sasquatch-equipped Broncos.
With 35" tires, ICON engineered K40013 to provide up to 11.5 inches of front wheel travel and 14 inches of rear wheel travel, making it a substantial performance upgrade for trail driving, overlanding and aggressive off-road use.

ICON Stage 3 Suspension System
K40013 marks a significant step up from ICON's EXP Series Bronco systems.
Rather than reusing the factory coil springs, Stage 3 uses complete ICON Vehicle-Specific coilover assemblies front and rear with ICON-engineered springs and application-specific damping.
This provides greater control over:
-
Ride height
-
Spring rate
-
Shock damping
-
Suspension travel
-
Vehicle balance
-
Off-road performance
The result is a complete suspension system engineered as a matched package rather than simply replacing the factory dampers.
Adjustable Ride Height
ICON lists the following lift range for K40013 on a stock-weight 4-door Bronco with the Sasquatch Package:
Front Lift: 2-3"
Rear Lift: 1.25-2.25"
ICON notes that actual lift height can vary depending on vehicle weight and configuration.
Additional weight from:
-
Steel bumpers
-
Winches
-
Skid plates
-
Roof racks
-
Cargo
-
Recovery equipment
-
Other permanently installed accessories
can reduce actual ride height.
2-Door vs. 4-Door Ride Height
ICON specifically notes that:
2-door Bronco models will sit taller than 4-door models.
Customers should account for this when selecting final ride height and setting coilover preload.
ICON 2.5 Series Front Coilovers
K40013 uses ICON 48600 2.5 Series Vehicle-Specific Internal Reservoir Front Coilovers.
These shocks are precision manufactured and custom valved specifically for the Ford Bronco.
Key features include:
-
2.5-inch shock bodies
-
Internal reservoir design
-
Vehicle-specific valving
-
Adjustable ride height
-
Increased suspension travel
-
Heavy-duty 7/8-inch shock shafts
-
Corrosion-resistant CAD-plated shock bodies
-
CNC-machined 6061 aircraft-grade aluminum components
-
PTFE-lined spherical bearings
-
Fully serviceable construction
The larger shock body and increased oil capacity provide improved thermal performance and damping control compared with the factory suspension.
ICON Billet Upper Control Arms
The K40013 Stage 3 system includes ICON 48500DJ billet aluminum upper control arms.
These premium UCAs are designed to accommodate the increased suspension travel and lift height provided by the ICON coilovers.
Benefits include:
-
Premium billet aluminum construction
-
Increased strength and durability
-
Improved suspension geometry
-
Increased suspension articulation
-
On-vehicle caster adjustment
-
On-vehicle camber adjustment
-
Helps achieve optimum front-end alignment
-
ICON Delta Joint Pro
ICON Delta Joint Pro
The billet upper control arms feature ICON's patented Delta Joint Pro.
ICON specifies up to:
90 Degrees of Total Articulation
The increased joint movement allows the front suspension to take advantage of the additional wheel travel available from the ICON coilovers.
Delta Joint Pro is designed to combine high-angle movement with the durability and environmental protection needed for both daily driving and off-road use.
ICON 2.5 Series Rear Coilovers
The rear of K40013 uses ICON 48610 2.5 Series Vehicle-Specific Internal Reservoir Rear Coilovers.
These rear shocks are oriented shaft-up and use ICON-engineered rear coil springs.
Rear features include:
-
2.5-inch shock bodies
-
Internal reservoir design
-
Vehicle-specific valving
-
Heavy-duty 7/8-inch shock shafts
-
Shaft-up orientation
-
Increased rear suspension travel
-
Fully serviceable construction
Triple-Rate Rear Coil Springs
A major feature of K40013 is ICON's unique triple-rate rear coil spring design.
These springs are engineered to improve both ride quality and suspension travel while providing progressive support as the rear suspension moves through its travel.
ICON specifically notes that the rear coils are optimized for a near-stock-weight Bronco.
Because the initial spring rates are softer, additional rear vehicle weight can reduce the advertised rear lift height.
Customers carrying significant permanent rear weight from:
-
Rear bumpers
-
Tire carriers
-
Cargo systems
-
Camping equipment
-
Roof racks
-
Recovery equipment
should account for this when evaluating final ride height.
Maximum Wheel Travel
With 35" x 12.50" tires, ICON lists:
Front Wheel Travel: Up to 11.5"
Rear Wheel Travel: Up to 14"
This increased suspension travel allows the Bronco to maintain better tire contact over uneven terrain while improving ride quality and control.
35" Tire Fitment
ICON recommends:
35" x 12.50" tires
with the appropriate aftermarket wheel specifications.
This tire size allows the suspension system to achieve its published maximum wheel travel.
37" Tire Fitment
ICON states that the K40013 suspension system can safely be used with 37" and larger tires when the appropriate up-travel limiters are installed.
For 37" tires:
Front: ICON #611075 Up-Travel Limiters
Rear: ICON #611074 Up-Travel Limiters
Additional minor trimming may also be required.
Recommended Wheels
ICON lists:

OEM Wheel & Tire Compatibility
ICON currently specifies:
OEM Wheels & Tires Fitment: No
Customers should verify wheel and tire clearance before installation.
Bronco Everglades Fitment Note
ICON specifically notes that Bronco Everglades models will have approximately 1.5-2.5 inches of front lift over stock, rather than the standard 2-3" range.
Steering Component Compatibility
ICON's fitment testing was performed using ICON and OE steering components.
Because front coilover clearances are tight, ICON warns that certain aftermarket steering components may not be compatible with K40013.
Customers using aftermarket tie rods, steering racks or other steering modifications should verify clearance before installation.
ADAS Recalibration Required
ICON specifies that installation of K40013 requires recalibration of the Bronco's Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).
Ride-height changes can affect cameras, sensors and driver-assistance system calibration.
ADAS recalibration should therefore be included as part of the installation process.
Fully Serviceable ICON Shocks
The ICON shocks included with K40013 are fully serviceable.
Unlike disposable replacement shocks, these coilovers can be serviced and rebuilt as components wear, helping extend the usable life of the suspension system.
Bolt-On Installation
K40013 is designed as a 100% bolt-on suspension system.
No drilling, cutting or welding is required for suspension installation.
A professional wheel alignment should be performed after installation and final ride-height adjustment.
ADAS recalibration is required after installation.
