Dial In Your Gen 3 Raptor's Front End with ICON's Most Advanced Coilover Setup
The ICON is a front coilover kit engineered specifically for the 2021-2025 Ford F-150 Raptor, combining ICON's 3.0 Series aluminum remote reservoir shock body with Compression Damping Electronic Valves for active, on-the-fly damping adjustment.
The kit delivers 1 to 3 inches of front lift and is built to handle the Raptor's factory high-speed desert running expectations while giving the driver real control over compression damping from the cab. The Gen 3 Raptor's front end geometry required a purpose-built coilover redesign compared to the previous generation, and ICON developed the ICO95003 from the ground up to be fully compatible with the newer chassis architecture. Every unit is valved and assembled in-house at ICON's Southern California facility.
Key Features
- 3.0 Series Coilover Body: Large-diameter 3.0-inch aluminum shock body provides increased oil capacity and extended heat dissipation over the factory and standard aftermarket alternatives, reducing fade on sustained high-speed runs
- Compression Damping Electronic Valves (CDEV): Electronically actuated compression damping adjustment lets the driver switch between comfort and performance damping modes without leaving the cab, compatible with ICON's digital damping controller
- Remote Reservoir: Separate oil reservoir connected by a braided stainless line maintains consistent damping by keeping cavitation-free oil volume available during sustained compression cycles over rough terrain
- 1-3 Inch Front Lift: Adjustable ride height in the 1-to-3-inch lift range provides increased ground clearance while maintaining proper suspension geometry and driveability on-road
- Gen 3 Raptor-Specific Design: Engineered from the ground up for the 2021+ F-150 Raptor's revised front end geometry; not compatible with Gen 1 or Gen 2 Raptor without modification
- ICON In-House Valving: Valved and assembled at ICON's facility in Southern California for consistent, application-specific damping characteristics matched to the Raptor's weight and intended use profile
- Paired Coilover Construction: Kit includes matched left and right front coilovers for balanced, symmetric damping response across the front axle

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the ICO95003?
The ICO95003 is an ICON Vehicle Dynamics front 3.0 Series coilover kit with remote reservoir and Compression Damping Electronic Valves designed for the 2021-2025 Ford F-150 Raptor. It provides 1 to 3 inches of front lift and allows the driver to electronically adjust compression damping from inside the cab.
What does CDEV mean and how does it work?
CDEV stands for Compression Damping Electronic Valve. It is an electronically actuated valve integrated into the shock body that adjusts compression damping stiffness at the push of a button. The driver can select softer settings for highway driving and stiffer settings for trail or high-speed off-road use without stopping or manually adjusting the shock. A compatible digital controller is required for full CDEV functionality.
Does this kit fit the Gen 1 or Gen 2 Ford Raptor?
No. The ICO95003 is designed specifically for the Gen 3 F-150 Raptor (2021-2025). The Gen 3 chassis uses a revised front end geometry compared to the 2017-2020 Gen 2 and 2010-2014 Gen 1 models. Do not attempt to fit this kit to an earlier-generation Raptor without consulting ICON directly.
Is a digital controller included with this kit?
No. The CDEV-equipped coilovers require ICON's compatible digital damping controller, sold separately. The shocks will install and function without the controller, but CDEV adjustment capability will not be accessible until the controller is connected.
How much lift does this kit provide?
This kit is adjustable in the 1-to-3-inch front lift range. Actual ride height change depends on the spring preload adjustment set at installation. Consult the included ICON instructions or your installer for the recommended preload setting for your specific use case.
Do I need an alignment after installing this kit?
Yes. Any suspension modification that changes ride height will affect camber and caster angles. A full front alignment is required after installing this kit to ensure proper tire wear, straight tracking, and safe handling. ICON recommends a professional alignment on a Hunter or equivalent alignment rack with the vehicle at corner-balanced ride height.
Does this kit require professional installation?
Professional installation is strongly recommended. Coilover installation requires a spring compressor, torque wrench, and the ability to safely support the vehicle while the front suspension is disassembled. Improper installation can result in component failure, suspension geometry issues, or loss of vehicle control. Always follow ICON's included installation instructions and torque specifications.
Is the ICO95003 compatible with the factory skid plates and bash bars on the Gen 3 Raptor?
In most cases yes, but verify fitment against your specific build before ordering. Aftermarket bumpers, bash bars, or non-factory accessories that modify the front end geometry or clearance envelope may interfere with coilover installation. Contact ICON directly if you have a heavily modified front end configuration.
Installation Instructions
- Safely lift the vehicle and support it on jackstands at a stable chassis location with the front wheels hanging free.
- Remove the factory front wheels and tires to gain access to the upper and lower coilover mounting points.
- Disconnect and label any brake lines, ABS wires, or CDEV wiring harness connectors attached to the factory shock.
- Support the lower control arm with a floor jack to prevent it from dropping suddenly when the factory coilover is unbolted.
- Remove the factory coilover upper mount hardware at the shock tower and lower mount hardware at the lower control arm.
- Extract the factory coilover from the shock tower and set aside.
- Set the ICON coilover spring preload to the desired lift height per the included ICON instructions before installation.
- Install the ICON coilover into the shock tower, aligning the upper mount to the factory bolt pattern, and hand-tighten the upper hardware.
- Seat the lower mount into the lower control arm bracket and hand-tighten the lower hardware.
- Route and connect the remote reservoir line and CDEV wiring per the included instructions; secure all lines away from heat sources and moving components.
- Torque all hardware to ICON's specified values with the suspension at ride height (simulate load by bouncing the front end before final torque).
- Reinstall wheels and tires, lower the vehicle, and perform a full front alignment before returning to service.
