Is too much of anything a bad thing? Test those limits with BDS Suspension's 8" Lift Kit with 4-Link Conversion! Get improved stance, performance, and capability out of your Ford, and with the added clearance, you can fit those beautiful 38" tires that dwarf the rest of the road. In the front, you get diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, heavy-duty 4-link control arms, forged drop pitman arm, brackets for the track bar, sway bar, and brake lines. On top of that, you have your choice of NX2 Nitro Series, FOX 2.0 Performance Elite Series, or a fully loaded FOX 2.5 Performance Elite with Coil-Over Conversion for your shocks. With these choices, the only question is how jealous your neighbors will be when they see your truck.
BDS completes this kit using replacement GlideRide leaf springs with integrated overload leaf for the rear, u-bolts, rear brake line brackets, and a matching set of NX2 Nitro, FOX 2.0 Performance, or FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks.
Shock Options:
-
NX2 Nitro Series Shocks - BDS NX2 series gas shocks offer impressive performance on and offroad. They use a nitrogen-charged, twin-tube design with 10-stage velocity-sensitive valving for lightning-fast dampening and superior control.
-
FOX 2.0 Performance Series Shocks - Fox 2.0 performance series shocks have been tuned and tested by both FOX and BDS Suspension to maximize performance specific to each application and every BDS Suspension system. The Internal Floating Piston (IFP) shock design is based on proven Fox Racing Shocks race products but re-designed to maximize the ride quality, handling, and control of your BDS-equipped truck, whether on or off the road.
-
FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Series - Need to kick your suspension up another notch? The FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Series greatly expands your off-road capabilities and how much punishment your shocks can take. Made with external reservoirs to keep your shock oil away from high stress and higher temperatures, the elite series shocks are part of a suspension that will handle whatever you throw at it. Comes with easy adjustments to switch between different terrains, load and speed. Dual Speed Compression Adjuster comes standard.
Steering Stabilizer Options:
-
Single NX2 Nitro: Are you worried about your steering control? NX2 Nitro Steering Stabilizer is designed to be a high-end performance shock at an affordable price. Built with a durable metallic finish, a large fluon-banded piston, and self-lubricating seals this stabilizer is tough enough to last but tuned with vehicle-specific valving to give you amazing control. Built with both the morning commute and some light off-roading in mind, keep stress out of your steer and install one of these today!
-
Dual NX2 Nitro Series: Is one not enough? Then upgrade to a dual steering stabilizer setup which gives further enhanced vehicle control and lessens side-to-side motion to a greater effect. Heavy off-roading requires a heavy suspension that can handle it but can still be smooth on asphalt.
-
Dual FOX 2.0 Performance Series: Taking things even further is the dual FOX 2.0 setup. Built to last from the top up this performance setup will enhance control, reduce shimmy and bump steer, and improve tire wear and front-end component life. Protect your investment and smooth out your rough spots before they leave you figuratively hanging.
Front Adjustable HD Track Bar
These new track bars are a massive upgrade to the factory unit, constructed from 1-3/8? solid steel stock reinforced with gusseted ends to handle whatever on-road and off-road abuse you can through at it. Adjustments are made at the 1-3/8?-12 fine threaded center turnbuckle with pinchbolt ends to allow easy tuning to properly recenter the front axle for a range of lift heights. The track bar is formed for proper clearance around critical front end components and is designed to easy installation without the need to clearance the factory frame and axle mounts. Both ends use high-durometer polyurethane bushings with thick-walled steel sleeves for strength and reliability. Parts come with a high quality textured black powdercoat finish for a great look and excellent corrosion resistance. The are designed for use on 0-3" of lift and can be used in combination with most aftermarket track bar brackets to be used on taller lift heights.
Sway Bar Link Kit
This heavy-duty replacement sway bar links are designed specifically for lifted applications. These sway bar links are designed to correct the sway bar operating angle for improved performance for use on any lift kits.
Rear Driveshaft Spacer
When lifting a model Ford F-250 or F-350 Superduty 6" or more it may be necessary to extend the rear driveshaft to ensure adequete spline engagement at full droop of the suspension. One option is building out a custom extended length driveshaft but a simpler and more affordable solution is to use this driveshaft spacer kit which provides the the necessary driveshaft spline engagement.
Carrier Bearing Drop Kit
A 2-piece rear drive shaft will require some extra work as the geometry of your drive system will now have some added stress. We recommend adding this carrier bearing drop to avoid any potential driveline vibration with the added
lift height.
