Brand New BDS Suspension 8" Lift Kit with Nitro Shocks, 4-Link, & Coil Springs (Part #BDS1731H).

Up the ante of your RAM 3500 diesel truck to the next level with this 8-inch 4-Link lift kit from BDS. Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 40" tires.

Up front the lift kit includes diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, 4-Link control arm conversion, forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar relocation, brake line brackets, and custom-tuned nitrogen charged shocks.

At this height, the transfer case needs to be indexed to allow use of the factory front driveshaft so an indexing ring and new transmission crossmember are supplied. In the rear this kit utilizes heavy duty steel lift blocks along with add-a-leaf springs, u-bolts and a matching set of shocks.
