Product Description

The ICON Vehicle Dynamics 56514 2.0 VS Rear Shock is a performance-oriented replacement designed specifically for the Toyota 4Runner models from 1996 through 2002. Engineered with vehicle specific valving and a nitrogen-charged monotube internal reservoir, this rear shock provides a significant upgrade in ride quality, control and consistency when compared to many factory units. Its aluminum construction not only offers improved heat dissipation and corrosion resistance, but also contributes to a more responsive suspension during daily driving or weekend adventures.

Compatible with rear lift setups from stock height up to approximately 2 inches, the ICON 56514 helps maintain proper suspension dynamics after a mild lift. The premium components - including a hardened steel shaft and OE-style polyurethane bushings - ensure durability on and off the road, while the rebuildable and revalveable design allows for ongoing service and tuning. Sold individually, replacing both shocks at the same time is recommended for balanced performance and handling.
