2019-2024 Ram 1500 4" Lift Kit with NX2 Nitro Shocks (BDS1698H)

BDS 4" suspension lift kit for the 2019-2024 Ram 1500 with factory rear air ride, clearing up to 35" tires. The high-clearance front end uses top-mounted strut spacers, 1/4" thick steel crossmembers, a multi-piece differential relocation bracket, and heavy duty skid plates that bolt together into a rigid protective subframe. CNC-machined ductile iron steering knuckles and replacement tie rod ends correct steering geometry and keep the ESC system compliant. The rear runs top-mounted air bag spacers, upper control arm and track bar relocation brackets, bump stop extensions, sway bar links, and new air lines, fittings, and ride height sensor brackets to keep the factory air ride working at the new height.

Notes

• Extreme care must be taken to follow the instructions to prevent air leaks or damage to the bags during installation.
• The factory air ride is a closed-loop system. Opening it more times than the lift instructions recommend will require a recharge at a RAM dealer service department, which needs a scan tool to access the air control module.
• Frame bracket modification is required.
• Fits 4WD models equipped with factory air ride only.
• Does NOT fit diesel models.
• Will NOT fit models with the Thermal Axle option. Reference build code DSK-P or check the diff cover for mounted cooling lines.
• Stock 18" wheels cannot be reinstalled due to steering interference. Stock 20"+ wheels can be reinstalled with factory-size tires.
• Trucks with factory 22" wheels must use the large bore steering knuckles (reference build code WPM or WPZ).
• If using 18" wheels with maximum recommended backspacing, test fit wheels on the vehicle before mounting tires to ensure clearance.
