2013-2018 Ram HD 5.5" 4-Link Conversion Kit with FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Shocks (BDS1780FPE)

BDS Suspension engineered this 5.5" lift kit with 4-link conversion for your 2013-2018 Ram 3500 gas truck, with clearance for up to 37" tires. Up front it runs gas-specific progressive-rate Pro-Ride coil springs, 4-link control arms with conversion mounts, a forged drop pitman arm and track bar drop bracket for steering correction, bump stops, brake line brackets and tuned FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks. The 4-link conversion uses high-strength 1/4" steel brackets and HD upper and lower control arms to correct axle positioning while limiting caster change through wheel travel. The rear uses a high-strength fabricated lift block, longer u-bolts and matching FOX 2.5 shocks.
