    I bought a full set of Icon two years ago and while I like them a lot, I appear to have a rather serious leak on the passenger rear shock. This happened very recently, and honestly I've only gone to the mountains three times on these and the rest of the time is minimal city driving.
    This happened within the last three months as they appeared fine at my last maintenance check.

    What are you replacement/fix procedures for this? IMG_2611.jpgIMG_2612.jpg

    if they are rebuildable you can go that option, usually about $100 each. if not, replace them. Im going through that with a front passenger side now, I decided not replace with rebuildable shocks.

    Sorry to see that you are having an issue. To get it serviced, first fill out the Shock Service Form from our website then ship the shock back to us. The details of the procedures are laid out on the service form page.

    I'd totally accept a rebuild or replace after a some intense/consistent wheeling, or miles close to the advertised amount, but this just seems pathetic. Even if we pretend the shock took my full odometer reading.

    I also have the same issue with my icon shocks both front and rear. I haven't wheeled my truck its a pavement pounder and yet all 4 leak. I want to rebuild them but its going to wait because its pricey but yet cheaper than replacing them
