ICON 2021+ Ford Bronco Hoss 1.0 EXP Series Stage 1 System # K40001

ICON 2021+ Ford Bronco HOSS 1.0 EXP Series Stage 1 System # K40001 is designed for use on Bronco models equipped with the Hoss 1.0 system. The HOSS 1.0 suspension package is Ford's "base" suspension system for Broncos with the Base, Big Bend, Outer Banks and Black Diamond trim levels WITHOUT the Sasquatch package. HOSS 1.0 is most easily identified by the BLACK shock bodies of the OE shocks.

EXP Series is based on ICON’s proven 2.5-inch diameter Aluminum Series shock absorber, featuring a one-piece impact-extruded aluminum shock body. Hard anodizing provides a great-looking, consistent finish with superior resistance to abrasion and corrosion. The massive 7/8-inch diameter shaft is induction hardened and chrome plated. EXP shocks use the factory shaft-up orientation, with the shaft ends machined to re-use the Bronco’s OE upper shock and spring mounts.

ICON's Stage 1 Complete Suspension System for the 2021+ Ford Bronco includes front and rear EXP shocks only. As the EXP shock allows for user-selectable lift-height, the ICON Stage 1 System is suitable for Bronco owners who will be using the lowest of the available height setting. Lower lift height settings are suitable for use with the Bronco's OE upper control arms. Customers wanting to increase lift height beyond 1.375" will want to look at the Stage 2 and higher systems that include new ICON Upper Control Arms that are properly designed to work with the taller lift heights.

EXP Series shocks utilize a one-piece digressive piston design and are custom tuned for the Bronco in conjunction with their stock coil springs to maximize damping performance and provide unsurpassed ride quality, on and off-road. The increased piston size and shock oil volume provided by the 2.5-inch diameter aluminum body also provide superior heat dissipation compared to the smaller, steel bodied OE shocks, resulting in longer-lasting shock performance over prolonged use at higher speeds and through rougher terrain. For those who would like to further tune their suspension, EXP shocks are fully re-valvable (and rebuildable) by any qualified shock technician, with parts available from ICON.
