Description
Description
With this lift kit, you can achieve maximum clearance for up to 40" tires. The front end of the kit is equipped with diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, 4-Link control arms with conversion mounts, and a forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for precise steering correction.
Additionally, it includes bump stops, brake line brackets, and a choice between NX2 or FOX 2.0 nitrogen charged shocks for exceptional handling and stability. To accommodate the increased height, an indexing ring and new transmission crossmember are provided to align the transfer case and allow for use of the factory front driveshaft. The rear of the kit is carefully designed to handle heavy loads
4-Link Conversion
Convert the factory stamped steel radius arms over to the BDS 4-link to optimize suspension geometry for better handling characteristics while adding strength and stability. This bolt-on upgrade utilizes high-strength 1/4-inch steel brackets that allow mounting of HD upper and lower control arms to correct axle positioning while limiting caster change throughout wheel travel.
Pro-Ride Coil Springs
A pair of full-length, diesel-specific, progressive rate Pro-Ride coil springs are supplied to provide the correct lift height and smooth, predictable ride across various terrains. Manufactured from high tensile steel, our direct OE replacement coil springs are engineered with properly sized wire diameter. This results in maximum reliability without premature coil bind.
Steering Correction
To optimize steering geometry once lifted, a forged drop pitman arm is used to minimize the steering angle and pair it with a heavy-duty track bar drop bracket to keep them in phase through suspension travel while recentering the front axle.
