Description

Up the ante of your RAM 3500 diesel truck to the next level with this 8-inch 4-Link lift kit from BDS. Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 40" tires.

Up front the lift kit includes diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, 4-Link control arm conversion, forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar relocation, brake line brackets, and custom-tuned nitrogen charged shocks.

At this height, the transfer case needs to be indexed to allow use of the factory front driveshaft so an indexing ring and new transmission crossmember are supplied. In the rear this kit utilizes heavy duty steel lift blocks along with add-a-leaf springs, u-bolts and a matching set of NX2 Nitro or FOX Performance shocks.

4-Link Conversion

Convert the factory stamped steel radius arms over to the BDS 4-link to optimize suspension geometry for better handling characteristics while adding strength and stability. This bolt-on upgrade utilizes high-strength 1/4-inch steel brackets that allow mounting of HD upper and lower control arms to correct axle positioning while limiting caster change throughout wheel travel.

Pro-Ride Coil Springs

A pair of full-length, diesel-specific, Pro-Ride coil springs are supplied to provide the correct lift height and smooth, predictable ride across various terrains.

T-Case Indexing

At this height, driveline adjustments are necessary to allow the use of the factory driveshafts so a precision-built transfer-case indexing ring featuring ARP-studs can clock the transfer case and improve the front driveline operating angle. Additionally, a high clearance transmission crossmember supplied to allow sufficient clearance.

Important fitment notes

  1. Does not fit OE equipped air ride systems
  2. Recoil Traction Bars Recommended
  3. Dually with 8-bolt Transmission (Aisin), require BDS122409 Def Relocation Kit
  4. Mega Cabs with 8-bolt Transmission (Aisin), require BDS122409 Def Relocation Kit
  5. Vehicles equipped with a Manual T-case requires BDS122423 Manual transfer case shifter extension
  6. Vehicles equipped with a 2-piece rear drive shaft (carrier bearing), require BDS122406 Carrier bearing drop.
  7. This kit requires the use of an aftermarket front driveshaft (not provided) in addition to the (provided) indexing ring kit BDS122624 (6-bolt) or BDS122421 (8-bolt). Both must be installed, however due to variations between truck configurations we recommend installing the kit prior to taking measurements for the aftermarket front driveshaft to ensure correct length. Vehicle can be driven without front driveshaft. Kit was tested with a Drive Line Plus flange and driveshaft, however other high angle driveshaft options can be used.

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.
