BDS Suspension lift kit.
Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 35" tires. In the rear the base kit utilizes a high-strength lift block, longer u-bolts and a matching set of NX2 Nitro shocks. The extended radius arm system will reduce caster change through wheel travel creating a more capable and controlled feeling in the steering wheel both on and off road.
A suspension lift raises ride height to clear larger tires; component kits vary in what they include, so check the parts list.
Use the vehicle selector to confirm your exact year, cab and bed.
