For maximum ground clearance, BDS designed a No Torsion Bar Drop System where the torsion bars are mounted directly to the top of the lower a-arm eliminating the need to drop the torsion bar cross-member. This kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 37\" tires.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 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 torsion bar relocation brackets, 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. These combined with the provided sway bar links, bump stop extensions, stainless steel brake lines, supplied hardware and more provide a comprehensive front suspension lift ready for whatever you throw at it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the rear BDS offers replacement lift blocks 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 is a U-bolt flip kit for max clearance and precision tuned shocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eFits:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChevrolet:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2011-2019 Silverado 2500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2011-2019 Silverado 3500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGMC:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2011-2019 Sierra 2500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2011-2019 Sierra 3500 HD\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cu\u003eNotes:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetermine if your truck was manufactured with or without top-mounted overload springs on the rear leaf springs. 3\" block - Will result in a slightly tail-low stance. 4\" block - Most common for level front\/rear stance. 5\" block - Will result in a level to slightly tail high stance, integrates a U-bolt flip kit with new spring plate.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTorsion Bar Tool required to load\/unload the torsion bars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\" rear block kit recommended for dually applications, 5\" rear block kit will not fit dually applications.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStock 17\" \u0026amp; 18\" wheels cannot be reinstalled.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStock 20\" x 8.5\" wheels with 6.18\" backspacing MAY fit with a max tire size of 37x12.50 on certain tire sidewall profiles due to clearance to the steering knuckle and sway bar.
