This BDS 4" lift kit with 4-Link conversion is built for your 2013-2018 Ram 3500 diesel, with clearance for up to 35" tires. The bolt-on 4-link converts the factory stamped steel radius arms to high-strength 1/4" steel brackets and HD upper and lower control arms, correcting axle positioning and limiting caster change through travel. Up front it includes diesel-specific progressive-rate Pro-Ride coil springs, a forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops and brake line brackets. The rear uses a high-strength fabricated lift block and longer u-bolts. This kit ships with NX2 Nitro shocks: nitrogen-charged twin-tube design with 10-stage velocity-sensitive valving.
