Description
Adding a smoother ride and more lift height to your truck doesn't have to be difficult. Built for easy bolt-on installation, this 3" UCA Lift Systems offer next level performance designed around the OE suspension geometry and utilize the FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Series shocks at each corner. These large aluminum-bodied shocks feature DSC (Dual Speed Compression) adjustable reservoirs for additional damping capacity, better heat dispersion and tuneable ride. These are paired with heavy duty BDS tubular upper control arms (UCAs) designed for improved strength and increased suspension travel. These control arms are built from thick wall 1.5" DOM tubing, and use an indexed ball joint cup to reposition the upper ball joints and allowing more droop travel. These arms come fully assembled right out of the box with high quality greaseable ball joints and rubber bushings for long life, quiet operation and superior corrosion resistance over uniballs and heims. Along with the control arms, a pair of reindexed cast steel torsion bar keys are supplied up front to lift vehicle while maintaining ground clearance. A small differential relocation kit is supplied to correct CV axle operating angles without effecting ground clearance. To eliminate sway bar interference, a pair of sway bar relocation brackets is used which maintains proper operating angle. In the rear a 2" block and u-bolt kit is used to create a level to slightly tail high stance. This system utilizes next level damper performance for smooth on-road comfort and extreme off-road capability allowing you to push your truck harder. Take your HD to the next level with BDS and FOX. Recoil Traction Bar Kit Increase your traction and stability without limiting your movement with this BDS Recoil Traction Bar Kit. When your truck is in high torque situations, you need extra help absorbing shocks or vibrations through your system. Install these traction bars to smooth out your ride, increase stability while off-roading, and increase durability throughout your truck. Steering Stabilizer Option: 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.

About BDS Suspension

BDS Suspension was started in 1996 by a business group who felt it was past time to create a suspension company that truly had the best interest of the off road consumer as its' foundation. With over 45 combined years experience with other major suspension companies, both buying and selling, the individuals that would make up the BDS name were frustrated by the lack of quality and the unwillingness to make things right by these 4x4 companies. So, they set out to create a suspension company that would be the best and made a list of the things they felt were not right and made it their mission to correct them.

One of the most important of these wrongs they were looking to right were that of other companies warranties. Too often, the standard protocol was that a broken or damaged part from another manufacturer was denied warranty because of abuse or neglect. For BDS, its simple, if it breaks, they'll replace it, and that is the motto in which they have based their entire warranty off of. So, they welcome you, try and break it, if you do, they'll replace it and probably try to determine a way to increase the rigidity of the product to ensure it never happens again.

BDS LIFT KITS

While most people whom have heard of BDS Suspension automatically think of "lift kits," that ony touches on the wide variety of suspension and steering related products that BDS offers. BDS understands that not everyone is after a complete lift kit, but still after the quality BDS products bring to the table. Some of our most popular products from BDS are replacement adjustable track bars and dual steering stabilizer kits that in many instances can be installed on a completely stock truck, or one that's leveled or lifted. Other popular "non lift kit" parts are leveling kits that include upgraded shocks, progressive rate coil springs, heavy duty control or radius arms, and even leaf springs.
