BDS 2 Inch Leveling Kit | FOX 2.0 Coilover & HD Upper Control Arms | 2013-2018 Ram 1500 4WD

Overview

This 2-inch leveling kit from BDS Suspension is designed for 2013–2018 RAM 1500 4WD trucks. It levels the factory stance and improves both on- and off-road ride quality using FOX 2.0 Performance Series coilover shocks up front and matching FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks in the rear. The kit also includes heavy-duty tubular upper control arms for increased strength and suspension travel, with clearance for up to 33-inch tires. All components are designed for a 100% bolt-on installation.

• FOX 2.0 Performance Series IFP rear shocks included for a smooth, matched ride front and rear
• Heavy-duty upper control arms (UCAs) increase strength and allow for more suspension travel
• UCAs use 1.5" OD x .120-wall tubular construction with an indexed ball joint cup to correct ball joint positioning, enabling additional down travel and camber adjustment
