Configured with Rubber Bump Stops and a 6-Bolt Indexing Ring Kit. Rubber factory-style bump stops provide a firm suspension limit, protecting shocks and components during road use and light off-road driving where bump stops are engaged at low speeds. The 6-bolt indexing ring kit is compatible with the standard Ram 3500 transfer case bolt pattern.
Overview
The BDS 4-inch 4-Link Lift Kit for 2013–2018 Ram 3500 4WD Diesel trucks replaces the factory suspension with a purpose-built system designed for increased articulation, strength, and off-road capability. The kit centers on heavy-duty BDS 4-Link arms paired with a front coilover conversion featuring FOX 2.5 Performance Elite coilovers, delivering improved damping control and ride quality on and off the road. FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks are fitted at the rear. An optional FOX 2.0 Hydraulic Bump Stop upgrade is available for the front to provide an additional layer of impact absorption at full suspension travel.
