Important Notes
- May require driveshaft lengthening for 13" (u-joint to u-joint) driveshaft.
- May require larger diameter driveshaft if equipped with a 41-1/2" front driveshaft.
- Extended shackles recommended to clear military wrap.
- Models with accessories like hardtop, rear tire carrier, roof rack etc., should use #004351 springs on front and rear.
- When combining lifted shackles with a 3.5" suspension system, a tail shaft eliminator kit and a "CV" style rear driveshaft may be required to eliminate driveline vibration.
- Pitman arms will NOT fit Yj models equiped with manual steering.

Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability. BDS Suspension has designed this 3.5-inch lift kit for your 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler YJ. This kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 33" tires.

Glide-Ride Leaf Springs
Built to outperform, BDS engineered the Glide-Ride leaf springs into a multi-leaf progressive spring rate design that provides a smooth ride with any load. This is accomplished with an exclusive triple-stage leaf spring design. These spring feature tapered leafs, anti-friction pads, bolt style leaf alignment clamps and a full military wrap to protect your spring eyes from the rocks. Upgrading to BDS Glide-Ride leaf springs will provide flexibility throughout the suspension cycle.
Recommended Tires & Wheels
(Trimming may be required)
- 33 x 12.5 with 15 x 8 and 3.5 in. Backspace
Rear Lift Option
Select the appropriate rear springs based on the weight of your vehicle and hard top vs. soft top.
- Light Duty Leaf Springs - Use these light-duty springs if you have a soft top and plan to either run with the stock spare or no spare at all.
- Heavy Duty Leaf Springs - Use these springs if you plan to run additional weight beyond the stock spare and a soft top. A must for hard top applications and will still ride great when you take your hard top off.
