BDS 3 Inch Lift Kit w/ Radius Arm | FOX 2.5 Coil-Over Conversion Performance Elite | Ram 3500 (2013-2018) 4WD Diesel | Rubber Bump Stop

Configured with Rubber Bump Stops — factory-style hard stops that protect shocks and suspension components at the end of travel. Well-suited for road use and light off-roading where bump stops are engaged at low speeds.

Overview

The BDS 3" Radius Arm Lift Kit for RAM 3500 trucks replaces the factory suspension setup with heavy-duty components engineered for strength, articulation, and controlled performance on and off the road. Heavy-duty BDS radius arms improve articulation and durability, while the BDS Coilover Conversion Kit — outfitted with FOX 2.5 Performance Elite coilovers — delivers precision damping and ride quality up front. FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks manage the rear. A front adjustable track bar re-centers the front axle after the lift, and front sway bar correction hardware maintains handling performance. An optional FOX 2.0 hydraulic bump stop is available for additional front impact control.
