ICON 98523DJ Front Billet UCA Delta Joint PRO for 2021-2025 Ford F150 2WD 4WD

Vehicle Fitment

• 2021-2025 Ford F-150 (XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, Platinum, Limited | All Cab Configurations | 3.3L V6, 2.7L EcoBoost V6, 3.5L EcoBoost V6, 5.0L V8, 3.5L PowerBoost Hybrid V6 | 2WD & 4WD)
• 2021-2025 Ford F-150 Tremor (All Cab Configurations | 3.5L EcoBoost V6 | 4WD)

Fitment Notes

• Does not fit the Ford F-150 Raptor. The Raptor uses unique, wider front suspension geometry that is not compatible with this UCA kit.
• Not compatible with models equipped with factory-installed electronically controlled suspension (Continuous Control Damping / CCD system).
• Not compatible with OnBoard Scales without additional hardware - vehicles equipped with Dynamic Bending Headlamps also require ICON Dynamic Headlamp Sensor Bracket Kit Part #611071.
• Compatible with OE (factory) steering knuckles only. Do not install in combination with any aftermarket knuckles.
• Lift height compatibility: 0-3.5" of front lift over stock on all non-Raptor F-150 submodels with OE steering knuckles; 0-3" on F-150 Tremor with OE steering knuckles; 3.5-4.5" on 4WD F-150 XL, XLT, Lariat, King Ranch, and Platinum when used with ICON Front Knuckle Kit Part #94000.
• Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) recalibration is required after installation.
• OEM wheel and tire combinations are not universally compatible - aftermarket wheels with lower offset/less backspace are recommended for proper clearance.
• Recommended aftermarket tire size: 34" x 12.50" (larger tires may fit but may require fender trimming).

Features

• Features ICON's all-new Delta Joint PRO - a rebuildable and fully serviceable high-angle suspension articulation joint that combines the durability of a factory ball joint with performance that exceeds traditional motorsports-style ball joints
• Delta Joint PRO delivers a full 90 degrees of articulation from one extreme to the other - a 14% improvement in range of motion over ICON's original Delta Joint - for maximum bind-free suspension travel at any lift height
• Delta Joint PRO ball features 56% more bearing surface than the standard Delta Joint, providing significantly improved strength, load capacity, and lubrication retention
• Chromoly ball and shaft hardened to Rockwell C 55, paired with graphite-impregnated sintered metal replaceable races for a precision metal-to-metal bearing interface that is both smooth and long-lasting
• Fully rebuildable and serviceable - any component of the Delta Joint PRO can be individually removed, inspected, and replaced without purchasing a new joint
• Constructed from CNC machined 6061 billet aluminum using a hybrid H-beam cross-section - lighter than tubular steel arms while offering superior resistance to bending forces
• FK Rod End 3/4" Heim joints provide precise, smooth function throughout the full range of suspension travel
• ICON's signature double adjuster sleeve allows for on-vehicle camber and caster adjustment without removing the arm from the vehicle
• Built-in caster correction restores and optimizes front alignment geometry after lift installation, ensuring even tire wear and precise steering response
• O-ring sealed dust cover cap protects Delta Joint PRO internal components from debris and contamination, extending service life
• Includes all components and hardware necessary for a complete installation
• Made in USA

Product Description

The ICON 98523DJ is a billet aluminum upper control arm kit with Delta Joint PRO technology, engineered specifically for the 2021-2025 Ford F-150 on all standard trims and the Tremor (excluding Raptor). The 14th-generation F-150's independent front suspension architecture - while sophisticated from the factory - was never intended to operate at the steeper angles created by performance coilovers and lift kits. Once a lift is installed, the OE upper control arm geometry falls out of its designed operating range, the factory ball joint begins to bind, and alignment adjustment reaches its limits. The 98523DJ corrects all of this in a single bolt-in kit, providing a billet aluminum arm with built-in camber/caster adjustability and ICON's most advanced articulation joint.

The centerpiece of the 98523DJ is the Delta Joint PRO - ICON's next-generation suspension articulation joint that represents a significant leap over both the original Delta Joint and conventional motorsports uniballs. The Delta Joint PRO is fully rebuildable and serviceable at the component level, meaning individual wear parts can be replaced without purchasing a whole new joint. Its chromoly ball hardened to Rockwell C 55 provides 56% more bearing surface than the standard Delta Joint and delivers a full 90 degrees of articulation - 14% more range of motion - for complete bind-free travel through the suspension's full stroke. Graphite-impregnated sintered metal replaceable races ensure a refined, self-lubricating metal-to-metal interface that remains smooth and durable over years of use.

The billet 6061 aluminum H-beam construction is both lighter and more rigid than tubular steel arms under bending loads, and ICON's signature double adjuster sleeve allows for on-vehicle camber and caster adjustment without pulling the arm. This is especially valuable after a lift is installed, as it allows precise alignment dialing without shop disassembly. The 98523DJ is compatible with 0-3.5" of front lift with OE knuckles on all standard F-150 submodels, and 0-3" on the Tremor. For 4WD F-150 owners seeking 3.5-4.5" of lift, pairing with ICON's Front Knuckle Kit #94000 unlocks additional travel. Note: models equipped with Dynamic Bending Headlamps require the ICON Dynamic Headlamp Sensor Bracket Kit #611071, and ADAS recalibration is required after installation on all applications.
