BDS 4 Inch Lift Kit | Ram 2500 Diesel 4WD (2014-2018) | Rear Coil Spacers | FOX 2.0 Performance Series Shocks

Configured with rear coil spacers and FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks. The FOX 2.0 shocks feature 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 design, application-specific valving, and a long-lasting clear anodized finish.

Overview

This 4-inch lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed for 2014–2018 RAM 2500 diesel-powered 4WD trucks. The kit improves stance, performance, and capability while providing clearance for up to 35-inch tires. Up front, the kit includes diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, radius arm drop brackets, a forged drop pitman arm, a track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops, and brake line brackets. In the rear, the kit utilizes progressive rate Pro-Ride coil springs (or coil spacers, depending on configuration), a track bar relocation bracket, bump stop extensions, sway bar links, and matching shocks. Pro-Ride coil springs are full-length, diesel-specific, and manufactured from high tensile steel as direct OE replacements engineered with properly sized wire diameter for maximum reliability without premature coil bind. A forged drop pitman arm minimizes steering angle, and a heavy duty track bar drop bracket keeps steering geometry in phase through suspension travel while recentering the front axle.
