Important Notes

Vehicles with radius arm mounted ride height sensors will require BDS123303. Designed for use on diesel models, but can be installed on gas trucks — will achieve an additional 1/2 inch front ride height on gas models. Installation requires a torque wrench capable of 406 ft-lbs. Due to taller factory ride height, Tremor models will not net the full advertised lift height; final ride height will be the same as standard models. Larger tires on a stock wheel are not recommended due to interference with the brake line, radius arm, and sway bar — use the recommended specs listed in the wheel and tire fitment section. Trucks without a top-mounted overload spring will require (x4) UBT4031, available to purchase separately. Fits SRW models only. Recalibration of your vehicle's Advanced Driver Assistance System (ADAS) cameras, radars, light detection and ranging (LiDAR), and other sensors may be necessary by your local dealership or ADAS service center. This will ensure proper functionality of vehicle features such as lane keeping, lane departure, parking assistance, blind-spot detection, adaptive cruise control systems, and other functions as they did prior to installation. Please connect with your local dealership or ADAS service center. Similar to a wheel alignment, all charges and expenses that may occur from dealership calibrations and adjustments are the sole responsibility of the vehicle owner.
