2019-2023 Ranger 3.5" Lift Kit with NX2 Nitro Shocks (BDS1545H)

Improve the performance and style of your 2019-2023 Ford Ranger truck by installing this 3.5-inch lift kit from BDS. Specially designed for the new Ranger, it adds tire clearance and improves performance without overextending the suspension or driveline angles at full droop.

Features

• Easy, 100% bolt-on installation
• Maintains factory-like ride quality
• Standard NX2 Nitro shocks with vehicle-specific valving for better control

Shock Features

• Nitrogen-charged, twin-tube design
• 10-stage velocity-sensitive valving
• Dual-welded ends for increased strength
• 1-3/8 inch high-flow piston
• Self-lubricating seals
• Silver powder-coat finish

Control Arm Features

Built for strength, performance and increased travel, the HD upper control arms (UCAs) are ready to bolt in with most leveled/lifted trucks. They use 1.5 inch OD x .120-wall tubular construction with an indexed ball-joint cup to correct ball-joint positioning, allowing additional down travel and camber adjustment. The frame mounting ends use durometer-specific rubber bushings for maintenance-free operation, while greaseable ball joints provide smooth, quiet operation and superior durability. Arms are finished in durable black powder coat with a billet aluminum dust cap, ready for installation right out of the box.

Manufacturer Description

To prevent maxing out ball joints or CV damage, BDS uses a 2-piece design with a smaller top-mounted steel strut spacer combined with a preload spacer. To further ensure proper drivetrain geometry, the front differential is repositioned using relocation brackets that correct CV axle angle while allowing use of the factory front skid plates. Up front the kit includes steel top-mount strut spacers, pre-load spacers, differential relocation brackets, and tubular upper control arms. In the rear it includes heavy-duty lift shackles and custom-tuned NX2 Nitro or FOX Performance series shocks.
