Overview
This 5.5-inch radius arm lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed for 2019–2024 Ram 3500 gas-powered trucks equipped with factory rear air bags. The kit improves stance, performance, and capability while providing clearance for up to 37-inch tires. Up front, the kit includes gas-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, heavy-duty replacement radius arms, a forged drop pitman arm, a track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar relocation hardware, and brake line brackets. A transfer case indexing ring and new transmission crossmember are included to allow use of the factory front driveshaft at this lift height. In the rear, the kit uses a high-strength fabricated lift block, heavy-duty air bag spacers, and longer U-bolts. Precision-tuned NX2 Nitro or FOX 2.0 Performance Series nitrogen-charged shocks are included front and rear depending on the selected configuration.
