This variant includes a Steel Block Kit for trucks without top-mounted factory overload springs. High-strength steel lift blocks provide correct pinion angles and are designed for vehicles where the factory block has been removed. Paired with FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks featuring a 2-inch impact extruded aluminum body, internal floating piston (IFP) monotube design, CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum mounting ends, a massive 5/8-inch hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shaft, race-developed high-flow piston, and application-specific valving for maximum on- and off-road performance.
Overview
This 6-inch lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed for 2008-2010 Ford Super Duty F250 and F350 diesel trucks (4WD), providing increased ground clearance with fitment for up to 37-inch tires. Up front, the kit includes diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, heavy-duty radius arm drop brackets, a forged drop pitman arm, a track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar relocation hardware, brake line brackets, and custom-tuned nitrogen charged shocks. In the rear, options include high-strength steel lift blocks with longer U-bolts and brake line brackets, or an upgrade to rear leaf springs for a level stance.

Important Notes
- Removal of the factory block is required.
- Installation of the rear block kit will result in a "pre-runner" look with the rear of the vehicle 2 inches lower than the front. To achieve a level stance, the rear leaf spring option must be selected.
- These trucks were manufactured with and without top-mounted overload springs on the rear leaf springs. A top-mounted overload is an extra leaf separate from the pack that sits above the main leaf. You will need to identify which configuration your vehicle has before ordering.
- If your vehicle is equipped with a carrier bearing, you will need to order part #123402 in the options section.
- Although extremely rare, front driveline vibration may occur.
- Front exhaust modification may be required to clear the front driveshaft on gas models.
- U-bolts will not fit dually models.
- Dropped pitman arm will not fit 10-lug wide track F350 models.
