ICON 2024+ Toyota Land Cruiser 250 Series/Lexus GX550 0-3in Lift Rear V.S. 2.0 Series Shock Absorber| 56520

Product Description

If you drive a 2024-25 Toyota Land Cruiser 250 Series or a 2024-25 Lexus GX550 and you’re seeking to elevate your rear suspension dynamics, the ICON Vehicle Dynamics V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series Rear Shock (Part No. 56520) is engineered for exactly that. Designed for 0-3″ of rear lift, this shock absorber brings serious technical upgrades—whether you’re carrying gear, exploring trails or simply want better on-road ride and control.

Technical Highlights & Benefits

• Nitrogen-charged monotube design with internal reservoir: The single-tube construction combined with factory nitrogen charge helps maintain consistent damping under varying loads and heat cycles. 

• Vehicle-specific valving (“V.S.”) for 2024+ Land Cruiser/GX550 rear geometry: ICON engineers the valving specifically to the weight, suspension travel and dynamics of your vehicle for improved behavior over generic shock units. 

• 6063-anodized aluminum body & reservoir tubing + 5/8″ chrome-plated hardened steel shaft: The materials – aluminum body for superior heat dissipation and corrosion resistance, and the large diameter shaft for structural strength – combine for durability and performance. 

• Fully rebuildable & re-tunable: The shock is designed for serviceability—meaning you’re investing in long-term performance, not a throw-away part. 

• Designed for 0-3″ lift over stock: This makes it ideal either for stock ride height or modest lift setups; you don’t lose ride quality or control with this shock. 

Why You Should Buy It

• Elevated ride comfort and control: The improved damping characteristics mean your rear axle remains better controlled under load, over bumps, or when driving off-road. Expect fewer harsh transitions and more predictable response.

• Load-carrying and off-road readiness: If you tow, haul gear or travel over rough terrain, this shock is built to manage the squat, bounce and heat-build-up that stock or lesser shocks struggle with.

• Durability and long-term value: With an aluminum body, high-quality internals and rebuildability, this is an investment rather than a disposable upgrade.

• Tailored for your vehicle: Because the part number is designed specifically for the 2024+ Land Cruiser 250 Series and GX550 rear end (0-3″ lift), you’re getting optimized geometry and performance rather than a generic unit.

• Improved rear dynamics in concert with full suspension: Whether this is paired with front upgrades or not, upgrading the rear shocks adds a major piece of the suspension puzzle—better axle control means better handling and ride overall.

Ideal For You If…

• You own a 2024 or 2025 Land Cruiser 250 Series or a 2024 or 2025 GX550, and you’re looking to upgrade the rear suspension with a performance-oriented, vehicle-specific solution.

• You’ve lifted the rear (or plan to) up to around 3″, or you want improved rear ride and control while staying near stock height.

• You often carry gear, tow, or plan to go off-road and want your suspension to match those demands.

• You value engineering, serviceability and a tuned feel—not just “higher” or “stiffer” but better.

Installation & Considerations

• This shock is sold individually. You will need a quantity of two (one left and one right) for a full rear axle replacement.

• Be aware of compatibility: this version is noted not compatible with vehicles equipped with Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) systems per ICON’s note.

• If you exceed ~3″ rear lift, you may step out of the intended tuning window of this shock and performance may degrade; for heavier off-road use or higher lifts you might consider a higher-series unit (e.g., V.S. 2.5).

• After install you should check alignment/geometry (toe, camber, whatever applies), confirm suspension travel, bump-stop clearance and correct mounting of all hardware.

• Because the unit is rebuildable, periodic inspection (especially after heavy off-road or towing use) will help maintain performance over time.

Upgrade the rear of your Land Cruiser or GX 550 with the ICON 56520 V.S. 2.0 Aluminum Series Rear Shock Absorber and experience refined ride quality, enhanced control under load, and a suspension that’s built to perform.
