With more ground clearance, more tire fitments, and more ways \nto personalize, it's time you give your Ram some added altitude and a \nwhole new attitude. The heart of this system is the 4-link conversion \nthat replaces the factory radius arm. Key benefits to doing this include\n increased stability, wheel travel, and improved handling across all \nterrains. The 4-link design limits caster change to less than 1 degree \nof change throughout wheel travel for better handling, steering control,\n and overall driveability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIncluded are a pair of massive frame-mounted brackets precision \nwelded and engineered to locate the new upper and lower control arms to \ncreate the optimal suspension geometry for late-model RAM trucks. The \n4-link brackets are fabricated from 1\/4\" thick steel and wrapped around \nthe frame as well as the factory radius arm brackets to create an \nextremely sturdy mount for the new arms. Removal of the factory radius \narm brackets is not required allow the brackets to stay intact to speed \nup the installation time and make these kits reversible. The upper and \nlower control arms are built from 2\" OD x 3\/16\" wall DOM tubing for the \nstrength to take any abuse you can throw at them. They utilize large \n2.5\" OD polyurethane bushings to isolate road vibrations and are formed \ninward to allow for extra tire clearance while repositioning the front \naxle slightly forward for increased tire clearance to the backside of \nthe front fenders when turned. These arms are finished in a durable \ntextured black powder coating and use grease fittings for easy \nservicing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe additional front height comes from a pair of specially designed \nprogressive rate ProRide coil springs. The 4\" coils have been engineered\n and tested to improve the ride quality and performance across all \nterrains while holding up to the rigors that 3\/4-ton truck owners \ndemand. A heavy-duty track bar relocation bracket is included to \nrecenter the front axle once lifted as well as a forged drop pitman arm \nto correct steering angles. Sway bar relocation brackets are used to \nreposition the front sway bar assembly and the supplied brake line \nbrackets allow for the easy adjustment of the stock lines to be reused \nwith the lift kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the rear, 1\/4\" steel, 3.5\" tall gusseted air bag spacers are used \nalong with a rear track bar bracket to correct axle positioning, \nextended length sway bar links, and bump stop extensions. BDS supplies \nnew air ride leveling sensor brackets to position the ride height \nsensors at the stock angle. This allows the rear suspension to be \nperformed just like it does at factory ride height and maintain full \nairbag range of motion. The rear suspension is rounded out with your \nchoice of NX2 series or FOX 2.0 shocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShock Options\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChoose between NX2 Nitro Series or FOX 2.0 Performance Series for your kit.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eNX2 Nitro Series:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNitrogen-charged\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwin-tube design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10-stage velocity-sensitive valving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual-welded ends for increased strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1-3\/8\" high-flow piston\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelf-lubricating seals\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSilver powder coat finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFOX 2.0 Performance Series:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2-inch Impact extruded aluminum body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal floating piston (IFP) monotube design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum mounting ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMassive 5\/8-inch hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRace-developed high-flow piston design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eApplication-specific valving to maximize performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLong-lasting clear anodized finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSway Bar Disconnect\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis kit allows standard Ram heavy-duty trucks to enjoy the added \narticulation of a disconnected sway bar.

All mounting hardware is included for simple, \nbolt-on installation. The disconnect pins are made from stainless steel \nand make disconnecting easy via the removable pin clip.

In addition to the improvements in \nstrength and adjustability compared to the stock track bar, it also \nprovides better control of the rear axle by replacing the soft factory \nrubber bushings with high durometer polyurethane at the frame and a \nforged COM bearing joint at the axle. Both ends are rebuildable and the \npoly bushings are greaseable. Can be used with or without track bar \nrelocation when needed for heights of 0-8\".\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel tube construction, 1-3\/4\" x 1\/4\" wall DOM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully welded, greaseable frame mount end uses high-durometer polyurethane bushings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Frame bushing sleeve is knurled to bite into the mount, creating a non-slip connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSteel forged adjustable end threads into precision machined, fully welded thread insert\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe forged end has a fine 1\" thread for fine-tuning adjustment and strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh load capacity COM bearing insert has an injection molded race for long life and quiet operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCOM\n bearing inserts are precision machined for exact fit and mimic the \nstock bushing width for use in the factory mount as well as any \nrelocation brackets designed for a stock bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BDS Suspension","offers":[{"title":"Use NX2 Series Shocks","offer_id":52078173421933,"sku":"BDS-1632H","price":2249.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Use Fox 2.0 Series Shocks","offer_id":52078173454701,"sku":"BDS-1632FS","price":2809.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0892\/2487\/2301\/files\/BDS-1632H.jpg?v=1752694339","url":"https:\/\/dieselpowerproducts.com\/products\/p-bds-4-4-link-lift-system-14-18-ram-2500-67l-cummins-4wd-w-rear-air-ride","provider":"Diesel Power Products","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
