Configured with FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks front and rear. FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks feature a 2.5-inch impact extruded aluminum body, an external reservoir design that separates shock oil from high-pressure nitrogen, a massive 7/8-inch hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shaft, a DSC (Dual Speed Compression) adjuster as standard, and are fully serviceable for a lifetime of use.
Overview
This 5-inch radius arm lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed for 2020–2022 Ford F-250/F-350 Super Duty diesel trucks (4WD, SRW models).

Up front, it includes diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, heavy-duty tubular replacement radius arms, a forged drop pitman arm, a track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar relocation hardware, brake line brackets, and precision-tuned nitrogen-charged shocks. In the rear, the kit utilizes a high-strength fabricated lift block, longer U-bolts, brake line brackets, and a matched set of shocks.

Important Notes
- Ford recommends replacement of the pitman arm nut each time it has been removed.
- If installed on a truck with a top-mounted overload spring, an overload spacer block taller than 1-1/8" — UBT4027 (Qty: 4) — is required.
- Use a small pitman arm puller to remove the drag link joint and steering stabilizer taper.
- If the truck is equipped with a 2-piece rear driveshaft, a Carrier Bearing Drop Kit may be required: BDS123402.
- Due to the taller factory ride height, Tremor models will not net the full advertised lift height. The final ride height will be the same as standard models.
- Larger tires on stock wheels are not recommended due to brake line clearance requirements. Use recommended specs listed in the wheel and tire fitment section.
- Minor trimming may be necessary for clearance of 37x12.50 tires on certain wheel setups.
- Installation requires a torque wrench capable of 405 ft-lbs.
- Some trucks with rear driveline vibration may have a recall from Ford regarding the rear axle (Safety Recall 21S31). BDS recommends having this recall performed prior to installing the lift.
- Fits SRW (Single Rear Wheel) models only.
