2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma 4WD 0-1.5 Inch Lift Rear 2.0 Vs Shock Icon Vehicle Dynamics

The ICON V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series rear shock (part #56503) is built specifically for 2005-2023 Toyota Tacoma 4WD applications running 0–1.5 inches of rear lift. This is a vehicle-specific valving tune — not a universal shock adapted to fit — which is why we recommend it for Tacoma owners who want a measurable handling improvement over stock without a full suspension overhaul.

The construction spec is worth knowing before you buy. The 6063 anodized aluminum body handles heat dissipation and corrosion resistance. Inside, a nitrogen-charged monotube design pairs with a one-piece linear/digressive piston and 5WT shock oil to maintain consistent damping across a wide temperature range. The 5/8-inch (0.625") chrome-plated hardened steel shaft, 6061 aluminum internals, and polyurethane bushings with zinc-plated sleeves are built for both street and trail use.

This shock is 100% rebuildable and 100% revalveable, which matters for long-term ownership cost. If your use case pushes into more aggressive off-road territory, ICON's V.S. 2.5 Series is worth considering instead. Note: this shock does not fit 2WD Tacomas with 5 wheel lug studs. Sold individually — one shock per order.
