Description
Improve the ride and style of your 1994-1999 Dodge RAM 2500 and 3500 4WD truck with this 4.5-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 inch Tires.
BDS engineered new lower control arms that are longer than stock to rotate the axle for proper alignment and built a relocation mounting bracket to flatten out the angle of the upper control arm to maintain your factory handling characteristics.
Up front the lift kit includes Pro-Ride coil springs, all four control arms plus relocation bracket, forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops, sway bar drop brackets, and precision tuned NX2 or FOX 2.0 nitrogen charged shocks.
In the rear this kit utilizes heavy duty cast steel block and add-a-leaf combo, 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, diesel-specific, progressive rate Pro-Ride coil springs are supplied to provide the correct lift height and smooth, predictable ride across various terrains. Manufactured from high tensile steel, our direct OE replacement coil springs are engineered with properly sized wire diameter. This results in maximum reliability without premature coil bind.
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.
