ICON 03-09 GX470 Stage 8 Suspension System

The ICON 03-09 GX470 Stage 8 Suspension System is a comprehensive upgrade designed to transform the driving experience of your 2003-2009 Lexus GX470. This system boasts an array of innovative features that enhance both on-road performance and off-road capabilities. At the heart of this kit are ICON's 2.5 Series Extended Travel coilover shocks, equipped with their proprietary CDC (Compression Damping Control) Valve. This valve allows for easy adjustment of compression settings, ensuring optimal ride quality no matter the terrain or cargo load. The Stage 8 system also includes a remote reservoir for cooling, ICON-engineered coil springs for a superior feel, and a 0-3.5” lift capability over stock height. This allows for the use of larger tires and wheels, providing a more aggressive and robust look.

Key Product Properties and Specifications

The Stage 8 suspension kit is engineered with precision and includes several standout features. The coilovers are paired with billet aluminum Delta Joint upper control arms, which offer extended wheel travel and on-vehicle adjustment for front end alignment. The rear setup consists of 2” lift rear coil springs and 2.5 Omega bypass remote reservoir rear shocks, providing vehicle-specific valving and more aggressive bump zones. These shocks also offer compression and rebound adjustment for ultimate control over performance and ride quality. Additionally, the system includes billet aluminum upper and lower links, which are stronger than OEM units and can be adjusted for optimal pinion angle. An adjustable rear track bar is included to correct rear end alignment and ensure compatibility with KDSS systems. For GX470 platforms, a rear coil spring conversion kit is included to eliminate the factory rear air bags.

Practical Applications and Benefits

This suspension system is an excellent choice for drivers seeking to elevate their GX470's performance on both paved roads and rugged terrain. The Stage 8 kit not only improves the vehicle's handling and ride quality but also allows for a more aggressive aesthetic with larger wheel and tire combinations. The inclusion of ICON's patented Delta Joint ensures long-lasting durability and noise-free operation, making this kit suitable for daily driving as well as off-road adventures. Whether you're navigating challenging trails or enjoying a scenic drive, the Stage 8 Suspension System will provide the confidence and control you need to make the most of your GX470's capabilities.
