ICON 27821EP 2.5 Series Front Shocks with CDEV for 2020+ Jeep Gladiator JT

Compression Damping Electronic Valve (CDEV) is an electronically controlled valve that meters the flow of oil to regulate the amount of damping force that is created by the shock when compressed. This infinitely variable valve can react in less than 40ms and has the ability to make extremely precise adjustments for varying terrain. CDEV’s hydraulic circuits are also custom tailored per application to create the highest resolution and dynamic range allowable for each specific vehicle. Powered by ICON Intelligent Control and proprietary ICON mobile app, the system uses information from the onboard G-force sensor and Gyroscope to perform calculations based on algorithms and user-defined settings to predict terrain and adjust shock settings via the CDEV accordingly. ICON 2.5 Aluminum Series shocks with CDEV are designed and built to give your vehicle outstanding performance off-road and a smooth ride on the street. These shocks are configured for each application in both length and damping tune. TECH NOTE: Only compatible with models equipped with 3.6L V6 gasoline engine. Not compatible with Wranglers equipped with 3.6L V6 eTorque engine.

• ICON's CDE Valve technology allows for in vehicle adjustment of compression damping settings and active adjustment via the ICON Intelligent Control (IIC)
• One-piece digressive piston design with vehicle specific valving for unsurpassed performance and ride quality on and off-road
• ICON’s internal “Bump Zone” increases damping by 20% to provide more control as the shock approaches full compression
• One-piece, hard anodized, impact extruded aluminum cylinders offer excellent corrosion resistance and consistent finish
• Premium grade 5WT shock oil for consistent suspension damping along a wide temperature range
• Remote reservoir design improves heat dissipation to reduce shock fade during prolonged use
• PTFE lined spherical bearings and application specific mounting hardware
• 7/8” diameter induction hardened, chrome plated shock shaft
• Nitrogen charged monotube design with piggyback reservoir
• 6061 aircraft grade aluminum CNC machined components
• 100% Revalveable
• 100% Rebuildable

Upgrade your 2020 and newer Jeep Gladiator JT with the ICON 2.5 Aluminum Series front shocks, Part Number 27821EP. Designed for vehicles with approximately 2.5 inches of lift, this pair of shocks combines application-specific damping with ICON Compression Damping Electronic Valve (CDEV) technology. The electronically controlled valve meters oil flow to regulate compression damping and can react in less than 40 milliseconds, allowing precise adjustments for changing terrain and driving conditions.
Powered by ICON Intelligent Control and the proprietary ICON mobile app, the system uses onboard G-force and gyroscope data along with user-defined settings to calculate and adjust shock performance through the CDEV. The hydraulic circuits are custom tailored for the Gladiator JT, delivering a broad dynamic range and responsive control both off-road and on the street. These shocks are configured for the application in length and damping tune to provide improved handling, ride quality, and control.
The ICON 2.5 Series shocks feature a nitrogen-charged monotube design with piggyback reservoirs for improved heat dissipation and reduced fade during prolonged use. One-piece digressive pistons, vehicle-specific valving, an internal Bump Zone, premium 5WT shock oil, and durable hard-anodized aluminum cylinders support consistent performance across a wide temperature range. PTFE-lined spherical bearings, application-specific mounting hardware, aircraft-grade aluminum components, and a 7/8-inch induction-hardened chrome-plated shaft provide long-term durability. The shocks are fully revalveable and rebuildable. Compatibility is limited to models equipped with the 3.6L V6 gasoline engine and excludes 3.6L V6 eTorque-equipped vehicles.
