BDS engineered this 6" lift kit with long arm conversion for the 2008 Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD gas truck, with clearance for up to 37" tires. Up front it runs gas-specific Pro-Ride progressive rate coil springs, all four long control arms plus mounting brackets, a forged drop pitman arm and track bar drop bracket for steering correction, bump stops, sway bar links and FOX 2.0 Performance shocks. The long lower arms retain factory triangulation to reduce caster change through travel for a more controlled, stable feel. In the rear it uses heavy duty cast steel blocks, longer u-bolts and a matching set of FOX 2.0 Performance shocks.

Features
  • Tubular long arms reduce caster change and create more controlled feeling on and off road
  • Heavy duty control arm 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
  • FOX 2.0 IFP gas shocks for improved ride and offroad performance
  • 2" Impact extruded aluminum body
  • Internal floating piston monotube design
  • CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum mounting ends
  • 5/8" hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shaft
  • Race-developed high-flow piston design
  • Application-specific valving to maximize performance

Specs
  • Front Lift Method: Coil Spring
  • Rear Lift Method: Block
  • Shocks Included: Yes
  • Front Lift Height: 6 inch

Notes
  • Measure rear axle tube before ordering. Some 4" axle models with dual overloads will require u-bolt 4068.
  • Power Wagon applications require sway bar link kit 122401. The Power Wagon has a 2" taller ride height, so net lift gain will be 4".
  • If driveline vibration occurs, order transfer case index kit 122801 or 122802.
  • If your truck has had the steering gear box changed and the sector shaft diameter measures 1-1/2" to 1-5/8", you will need to add part BDS082404 to your kit.
