Important Notes
- Inner fender trimming is required.
- Minor welding is required.
- The electronically assisted power steering system is sensitive to out-of-round, unbalanced, and more aggressive tread pattern tires. High speed steering wheel feedback can occur.
- The actual ride height on C/O kits is closer to 6'' of lift.
- Stock 17" & 18" wheels can not be reinstalled with the lift kit. Aftermarket 20" wheels with a maximum of 5.25" Backspacing are recommended - certain wheel and tire combinations will require weld on steering stops, these are included in the kit. See end of inst. sheet for details on installation.
- Will not fit ZR2 Models.
- Will fit diesel models.

Take your Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon 4WD truck to the next level with a 5.5-inch suspension lift kit by BDS. Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 33" tires.
This kit takes advantage of BDS's tried and true high-clearance design for improved ground clearance, strength, and offroad protection while correcting suspension and steering geometry for great on-road handling characteristics. Up front, the kit utilizes top mounted strut spacers, high-arched 1/4-inch thick steel crossmembers along with a multipiece differential relocation brackets and heavy duty skid plates built for offroad protection. Steering geometry is corrected at the new taller ride height with CNC-machined ductile iron steering knuckles and replacement tie rod ends allowing for ESC system compatibility. These combined with the provided sway bar links, bump stop extensions, CV spacers, supplied hardware and more provide a comprehensive front suspension lift ready for whatever you throw at it.
In the rear BDS offers a heavy duty fabricated lift block to lift and level that stance. The lift block installs in place of the stock block and retains ride quality and load capacity. Also for the rear are new u-bolts and precision tuned NX2 Nitro or premium FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks.
High Clearance Crossmembers
BDS maximizes ground clearance with their heavy duty 1/4-inch thick laser cut perfect fit crossmembers. Paired with a front skid plate system that bolts together to create a rigid subframe while adding extra protection.
Heavy Duty Steering Knuckles
BDS corrects steering geometry at the new taller ride height using a pair of high-strength, CNC machined ductile cast iron steering knuckle design to work with replacement tie rod ends to maintain steering angles for proper function and ESC compatibility.
