Description

 

Maximize the potential of your 2014-2018 RAM 2500 truck with rear air ride capabilities using this 5.5-inch lift kit from BDS Suspension. This kit is specially designed to enhance your truck's stance, performance, and abilities, and comes with everything you need for clearance up to 37" tires.

Featuring premium components such as Pro-Ride coil springs, heavy-duty radius arms drop brackets, forged drop pitman arm, and precision-tuned NX2 or FOX 2.0 nitrogen charged shocks, this kit will take your truck to the next level.

The transfer case will need to be indexed at this height for use with the factory front driveshaft, and an indexing ring and new transmission crossmember are included. In the rear, this kit includes heavy duty air bag spacers, a track bar relocation bracket for proper axle positioning, bump stop extensions, sway bar links, and matching NX2 Nitro or FOX 2.0 Performance shocks. BDS also provides

 

HD Radius Arms

In place of the factory stamped steel radius arms BDS supplies a pair of high-strength tubular radius arms. These arms mount into the factory location and offer caster adjustment for a wide range of lift heights along with an OE-style rubber bushing at the frame mount for smooth, quiet, service-free operation.

Pro-Ride Coil Springs

A pair of full-length, gas-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.
