ICON 05-11 Toyota Hilux 0-3in Stage 1 Suspension System| K53136

Product Description:

When you own a rugged workhorse like the 2005–2011 Toyota Hilux and you’re ready to improve both its on‑road comfort and off‑road performance, the ICON Vehicle Dynamics K53136 Stage 1 suspension system is a technically refined upgrade designed just for your truck.

Engineering Details That Matter

• The front of the system features 2.5″ diameter coilover shocks with an internal reservoir — giving you increased oil and nitrogen capacity for improved damping control and heat management. 

• These coilovers are height‑adjustable from 0″ to 3″ of lift, allowing you to level your truck, improve tire clearance, or dial in just the right stance. 

• The rear uses ICON’s 2.0 Aluminum Series monotube shocks, tuned to balance the upgraded front end and maintain stability across varying loads and terrains. 

• The kit is built with high‑quality materials: 6061 aircraft‑grade aluminum CNC‑machined components, corrosion‑resistant CAD‑plated shock bodies, and high‑strength shafts (7/8″ in the front).

• It’s a 100% bolt‑on system—no drilling, welding or cutting required—so you can install it knowing the structure remains uncompromised. 

What You’ll Feel & Why It’s Better

• Smoother ride quality on pavement: With the upgraded front coilovers and tuned rear shocks, you’ll notice less harshness over bumps, better transition control when driving off‑road, and a more refined feel overall.

• Improved possession of terrain and load: The increased travel and stronger damping mean the Hilux stays composed when loaded, when off‑road obstacles appear, or when driving aggressively.

• Tire and stance flexibility: The 0‑3″ lift range allows you to either maintain near‑stock ride height (for everyday use and towing) or raise up to ~3″ for larger tire/clearance setups—recommended up to 33″ × 11.25″ as noted by ICON. 

• Durability you can trust: The premium materials and serviceable design mean this isn’t a throw‑away lift kit—it’s a suspension system engineered for longevity and serious use.

Fitment & Technical Notes

• Vehicle Fitment: Fits 2005‑2011 Toyota Hilux (verify your drivetrain, bed/cab combinations and local fitment). 

• Lift Range (front): 0 to 3″ of lift over stock ride height; for heavier loads or additional rear lift you may add springs to the rear to balance height. 

• Tire Compatibility: Stock wheels and tires fit; with aftermarket you can run up to ~33″ × 11.25″ tires, but larger may require fender trimming or modifications. 

• Installation & Maintenance:

  • The system is bolt‑on, but proper alignment and post‑installation inspection is advised.

  • Because the coilovers are adjustable, ensure ride height is set correctly and travel is verified to avoid bottoming out or binding.

  • Keep in mind servicing the shocks (nitrogen pressure, seals, bearings) preserves performance over time.

• Towing/Capacity: ICON states that this system offers increased wheel travel and ride quality “with no change in towing capacity.” 

In summary:
If you’re looking to upgrade your Hilux’s front and rear suspension with a system that brings real technical benefit—better ride, improved control, flexibility for larger tires and improved durability—the ICON K53136 Stage 1 suspension system is a solid choice. It combines advanced shock technology, adjustable lift, tuned springs and rear shock balance into one vehicle‑specific package. Whether you drive daily, haul gear, or explore trails—this kit equips your Hilux to perform better under all conditions.
