Description
xUpgrade the suspension performance and off-road capability of your Ram 2500 Diesel 4WD (2014–2018) and (2025–2026) with the BDS 3-Inch Lift Kit featuring a FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Coilover Conversion and heavy-duty Radius Arm suspension system. Designed for serious off-road performance and heavy-duty diesel trucks, this system provides increased suspension travel, improved articulation, and superior ride quality.
This kit replaces the factory suspension setup with heavy-duty tubular BDS radius arms, improving caster control and axle positioning while increasing ground clearance and suspension strength. The upgraded radius arms provide improved articulation and durability for demanding off-road environments while maintaining stable on-road handling.
The front suspension is upgraded with a FOX 2.5 Performance Elite coilover conversion system, featuring large diameter aluminum shock bodies, external reservoirs, and Dual Speed Compression (DSC) adjusters. These adjusters allow precise tuning of both high-speed and low-speed compression to optimize ride comfort, towing stability, and off-road performance.
In the rear, FOX 2.5 Performance Elite remote reservoir shocks provide consistent damping performance and improved ride control whether driving on pavement, hauling loads, or navigating rugged terrain.
Optional FOX hydraulic bump stops are available to provide additional impact absorption during aggressive off-road driving and large suspension compressions.
Engineered for durability and performance, this BDS suspension system allows clearance for up to 35-inch tires with the proper wheel and tire setup, making it an excellent upgrade for diesel truck owners building a capable off-road, overland, or heavy-duty work truck.
