Description

Engineered to improve stance, performance, and capability, the BDS 4.5-inch lift kit for the 1999-2006 Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 4WD is a must have upgrade. For maximum ground clearance, BDS designed a No Torsion Bar Drop System where the torsion bars are mounted directly to the top of the lower a-arm eliminating the need to drop the torsion bar cross-member. This kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 33" tires.

This kit takes advantage of BDS's tried and true high-clearance design for improved ground clearance, strength, and offroad protection while correcting suspension and steering geometry for great on-road handling characteristics. Up front, the kit utilizes torsion bar relocation brackets, high-arched 1/4-inch thick steel crossmembers along with a multipiece differential relocation brackets and heavy duty skid plates built for offroad protection. Steering geometry is corrected at the new taller ride height with CNC-machined ductile iron steering knuckles. These combined with the provided sway bar drops, bump stop extensions, brake line brackets, CV spacers, supplied hardware and more provide a comprehensive front suspension lift ready for whatever you throw at it.

In the rear BDS offers both replacement lift block and full Glide-Ride leaf spring options to lift and level that stance. The lift block installs in place of the stock block and retains ride quality and load capacity. Also for the rear are new u-bolts, brake line brackets and precision tuned NX2 Nitro or FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks.

High Clearance Crossmembers

BDS maximizes ground clearance with their heavy duty 1/4-inch thick laser cut perfect fit crossmembers. Paired with a front skid plate system that bolts together to create a rigid subframe while adding extra protection.

Heavy Duty Steering Knuckles

BDS corrects steering geometry at the new taller ride height using a pair of high-strength, CNC machined ductile cast iron steering knuckle design to work with factory tie rod ends to maintain steering angles for proper function and ESC compatibility.

Warranty

BDS warranty coverage is for the original retail purchaser with proof of purchase. BDS hard parts and bushings have lifetime replacement coverage; finish and normal wear are excluded.

BDS NX2 and BDS/FOX Performance Series shocks have limited lifetime coverage excluding normal wear and oil seals. At BDS’s discretion, qualifying leaking seals less than two years old may be considered for repair or replacement.

FOX proprietary shocks and coilovers follow FOX warranty terms rather than the BDS warranty. Qualifying leaking seals less than one year old may be considered; other FOX concerns follow the FOX service process.

Properly maintained ball joints and tie-rod ends less than three years old may qualify, subject to the manufacturer’s conditions.

Remedies are repair or replacement at BDS’s discretion. Eligible warranty ground shipping is covered; removal, installation, expedited freight and consequential costs are excluded.

Read the official BDS warranty and FOX service terms.
