Up front it includes FOX 2.5 coil-over shocks, all four control arms plus a mounting bracket, a forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops, and sway bar links. The rear uses heavy duty cast steel blocks, longer u-bolts, and a matching set of FOX 2.0 Performance shocks. BDS developed a mounting system that bolts directly to the factory coil mounts with only minor trimming and drilling required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe long arm upgrade uses massive 1\/4\" steel frame mounted brackets and oversized formed upper and lower arms, shaped for maximum tire clearance, with weld-in axle reinforcements. The lower arms reduce caster change through wheel travel for a more controlled feel, and use oversized greaseable polyurethane bushings for road vibration isolation while retaining the factory triangulation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOX 2.5 Factory series coil-overs offer improved damper performance over stock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTubular long arms reduce caster change and create more controlled feeling on and off road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy duty control arm brackets maintain proper suspension geometry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront high strength progressive rate coil springs for a great ride on any terrain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront track bar relocation bracket to re-position axle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eForged drop pitman arm to correct steering angles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront sway bar correction to maintain handling performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear FOX performance series IFP gas shocks for improved ride and offroad performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes weld-in reinforcements at the axle for superior strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlocks are made from cast iron for strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTapered for correct pinion angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel pin and hole are offset to restore axle position\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eSpecs\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront Lift Method: Coil-Over\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear Lift Method: Block\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShocks Included: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFront Lift Height: 6 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRear Lift Height: 4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003eNotes\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMeasure rear axle tube before ordering.
