This kit is designed for 4WD models. Will NOT fit AT4X or ZR2 models, as the lower control arm profile is different. For DRW models, use the "with overload" rear lift option. To determine your correct rear lift option, check whether your truck was manufactured with or without top-mounted overload springs on the rear leaf springs.

Important Notes & Installation Requirements

• Requires frame bracket modification.
• A torsion bar tool is required to load and unload the torsion bars.
• Models with two-piece rear driveshafts will require a carrier bearing drop kit.
• Factory 17-18" wheels cannot be reinstalled due to tie rod end interference. Stock 20" wheels can be reinstalled with up to a 35x12.50 tire.
• Vehicles frequently used in 4WD on the highway could experience a minor front driveline vibration. If this occurs, BDS recommends replacing the front driveshaft with a dual Cardan style driveshaft.
• Do not install this suspension system with any type of torsion bar lift keys to achieve more than the tested 6.5" lift height.
• Some minor trimming will be required with certain wheel/tire combinations. This is normal with most aftermarket tire/wheel fitment on Chevy/GM trucks and typically involves the bottom edge of the inner fender shrouds and/or the lower corner of the front bumper valance. Deeper backspacing and shorter/narrower tires reduce or eliminate trimming. Additional trimming tips are included in the instruction sheet.
