Important Notes
- The carrier-bearing drop kit is necessary for models equipped with two-piece rear drive shaft.
- 6.4L Gas models will require exhaust modification to clear the front driveshaft and potentially the passenger's Radius arm bracket.
- 5.7L Gas models may require exhaust modification - but not in all cases.
- The vehicle can be driven without the front driveshaft to an exhaust shop for modification and reinstalled after modification.
Features & Benefits
- Heavy duty radius arm drop brackets maintain proper suspension geometry
- Front high strength progressive rate coil springs for a great ride on any terrain
- Front track bar relocation bracket to re-position axle
- Forged drop pitman arm to correct steering angles
- Front sway bar correction to maintain handling performance
- BDS NX2 gas or FOX performance series IFP gas shocks to improved ride and offroad performance
Improve the ride and style of your 2013-2018 RAM 3500 gas powered truck with this 4-inch lift kit from BDS Suspension. 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.
Up front the lift kit includes gas-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, radius arms drop brackets, forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops, brake line brackets and precision tuned NX2 or FOX 2.0 nitrogen charged shocks.
In the rear this kit utilizes a high-strength fabricated lift block, longer u-bolts and a matching set of NX2 Nitro or FOX 2.0 Performance shocks.
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.
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.
