What's a CANYONERO? #ICONequipped

We weren't sure what was better: the ability to make someone really happy or building a badass off-road truck. We chose both with a 2023 GMC Canyon AT4 and its driver. Owner Zach Cosby affectionately named it Canyonero, but it embodies almost everything Crusty the Clown's 4x4 isn't—well, except for the fact that 'She's a...driving machine!' (If you're confused, Google it for a good chuckle.) Equipped with ICON's latest technologies, this prime-cut mid-size pickup is ready to hit the road—and trails—at maximum performance, boasting a suspension setup one might only dream... of in their lifetime. If you haven't been following our social channels regarding this project, let's quickly bring you up to speed. Zack responded to a routine R&D vehicle search ad on our Instagram page. His vehicle got selected, and once Zack dropped it off, our team decided it was the perfect fit for showcasing at the 2023 SEMA Show. We reached out to Zack, requested to take over his vehicle for several months, and then surprised Zack and his wife, Jennifer, with an off-road overhaul and a show reveal featuring renowned builder and TV host, Ian Johnson, at the biggest aftermarket automotive show globally. Dive into the details of the reveal event and vehicle build below. It stands as a true testament to our team's innovative spirit, expertise, and the strong sense of community we deeply value. Thank you all for being part of this journey with us! A picture is worth a thousand words. Lead engineer, Kris Konitzer, giving Zack a rundown of the overhaul. Zack's first time behind the wheel of his built truck was down Las Vegas Boulevard in the SEMA Cruise Parade. Not a bad way to end a first ever SEMA show for this ICON Instagram Follower! First dirt is a sight to behold, for builder and driver. Zack is looking forward to many family offroad trips with his new ride. The Canyonero's suspension design integrates various planned production components intended for the Canyon/Colorado applications, with a selection of enhanced elements that truly set this build apart from the rest. SUSPENSION OVERVIEW: Billet Upper Control Arm with Delta Joint PRO, 3.0 Front Coilover VS RR CDEV Electronic Adjustment, IIC (ICON Intelligent Control) Kit & iOS Application, S2 OMEGA Secondary CDEV Electronic Adjustment, S2 Steel Mount, Fabricated HD Lower Control Arm, 3.0 Rear Bypass Shock CDEV Electronic Adjustment, 3.0 Rear Outboard Shock Mount, 2.5 Aluminum Series Rear Bump Stop, Rear Bump Stop Steel Mount, Multi-Rate Rear Leaf Pack, Steel Rear Shackle. GMC Canyon and Chevy Colorado suspension components and ICON Stage kits are coming soon - stay tuned! ICON Impact Armor Front Bumper for GMC Canyon gained a lot of interest at the SEMA Show.

Special thanks to our awesome partners, especially KC HiLITES, Boxo USA, Pro Eagle for completing our ICON IMPACT custom bed-rack so exquisitely!

A New Era in Wheel Technology | Proudly Introducing RECON PRO featuring InnerLock™ Technology and HALO Wheel Armor

ICON Technologies: INNERLOCK™ & HALO Wheel Armor InnerLock™ is ICON's patented, D.O.T. Compliant bead retention system, making these wheels legal on the street and a beast off-road. InnerLock™ Technology uses a series of high strength alloy bead retention pins inserted through a thickened section of the wheel to act as a fence to physically prevent the tire bead from being pushed away from the wheel's inner lip. This simple but ingenious solution is patented, lab-tested, and has been trail-proven on the toughest terrain from coast to coast. FMVSS (Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards) No.139 Tire Bead Unseat Resistance Test (modified to 10 psi). Results from multiple tests validated the effectiveness of ICON’s InnerLock technology by exceeding the mechanical limits of the machine (over 7600lbs load) without ever de-beading the tire. The all-new HALO Wheel Armor system is intelligently designed with segmented quarters, allowing for convenient and cost-effective replacement of individual segments if they incur damage, such as from rock rash. This unique feature eliminates the need to replace the entire set, providing flexibility and efficiency in maintenance. Moreover, the replacement process is seamless, as HALO segments can be installed or replaced without the necessity of dismounting the tire from the wheel. Crafted from high-grade aluminum, these segments are initially presented in a sleek satin black finish that come preinstalled on the Recon Pro. However, for those seeking a personalized touch, HALO is also offered in Raw Aluminum as a separate part that can be easily customized through painting or specialized coating in any color, offering a truly unique aesthetic. HALO Wheel Armor shown with custom CERAKOTE finish/color combo. Custom Colors are at the responsibility of the user. ABOUT ICON ALLOYS: Developed by ICON Vehicle Dynamics (manufacturers of industry-leading performance suspension systems and shock absorbers) ICON Alloys was established with the objective to provide off-road market quality wheels built with precision, performance, and strength in mind. Time after time in the development of suspension components the ICON R&D team ran into clearance, fitment, and steering geometry issues that limited the drivability and performance of a given vehicle. As this trend continued, the idea of manufacturing a line of wheels with the “form follows function” approach made more and more sense, and off to the drawing board, it was… PRECISION - Application-specific dimensions optimize vehicle dynamics and tire clearance for many of today’s most popular vehicles. PERFORMANCE - Engineered to reduce unsprung weight and rotating mass for increased vehicle performance both on and off-road. STRENGTH - Aluminum alloy construction provides high-strength properties that are well suited for heavy off-road abuse.

From Screen to Show: ICON Vehicle Dynamics Shocks Instagram Follower with Complete Truck Overhaul

Riverside, California – October 19, 2023 ICON Vehicle Dynamics, the industry-leading manufacturer of premium suspension components, complete suspension systems, ICON Alloys wheels and ICON Impact Armor, today announced the highly anticipated unveiling of a custom-built 2023 GMC Canyon AT4 at the upcoming 2023 SEMA Show. The special feature of this reveal is the remarkable story of a chance encounter with an enthusiastic fan-turned-collaborator, Zack Cosby, whose truck was selected and then surprised with a top-tier overhaul for the SEMA Show taking place October 31 – November 3, 2023, in Las Vegas, Nevada. The journey began when ICON posted a ‘want ad’ on their Instagram, seeking a 2023 GMC Canyon AT4 for a routine R&D measuring session. Enter random Instagram follower, Zack Cosby, who answered the call. After securing his vehicle, ICON then asked his permission to take his truck for the 2023 SEMA Show. After several moments of silence, followed by an enthusiastic and resounding "yes," ICON embarked on a two-month journey of innovation and craftsmanship, building anticipation for an extraordinary SEMA Show reveal. Build Reveal Press Event The build reveal press event is scheduled for Thursday, November 2, at 11:30am in the Randys Worldwide exhibit, located at booth #57169 in the West Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Renowned host and avid off-road builder and enthusiast, Ian Johnson, widely recognized for his role in Big Tire Garage on the Motor Trend network, will be on hand to orchestrate the much-anticipated reveal. Witness the excitement as Zack Cosby experiences the stunning transformation of his truck, created through the collaboration of ICON's expert engineering team and a league of industry-leading partners. The fully customized GMC Canyon build, inspired by Zack's idea of a “dream desert truck,” will showcase an array of quality crafted components, including a cutting-edge suspension package built for high-speed, off-road inspired ICON Alloys wheels engineered with ICON’s patented InnerLock Technology, and custom-fabricated armor from ICON Impact, all meticulously designed and fabricated by team ICON. The project's success is also attributed to the invaluable contributions of top industry partners such as Yukon Gear & Axle, KC HiLiTES, Nitto Tires, BOXO, Pro Eagle, MagnaFlow, Rugged Radios, Schosche Industries, and Canyon Coolers. “We are thrilled to bring Zack’s vision to life and share it with the world at the 2023 SEMA Show,” stated Coelette Chenier, ICON’s marketing manager. “This project embodies our commitment to innovation, collaboration, community and pushing the boundaries of automotive excellence.” Adjacent to the GMC Canyon presentation, ICON will showcase a dynamic lineup of new product submissions.
