Upgrade the capability and stance of your truck with the BDS Suspension 8 Inch Lift Kit for Ram 3500 4WD diesel models (2013-2018). Designed to deliver maximum ground clearance, improved suspension geometry, and aggressive styling, this heavy-duty lift system includes a robust 4-link conversion to enhance suspension performance and durability both on and off the road.
At the front, this kit features diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs engineered to provide the proper lift height while maintaining smooth ride quality across varying terrain. The factory radius arm suspension is converted to a heavy-duty 4-link control arm system, utilizing high-strength brackets and control arms that improve axle positioning while reducing caster change during suspension travel.
To maintain proper steering geometry after lifting, the system includes a forged drop pitman arm and track bar relocation bracket, ensuring correct steering angles and proper front axle centering. Additional components such as sway bar links, bump stops, and stainless steel brake lines help maintain safe and reliable suspension operation.
At this lift height, driveline geometry adjustments are required. The system includes a 6-bolt transfer case indexing ring and heavy-duty transmission crossmember to improve front driveline angles while allowing the continued use of factory driveshaft components.
In the rear, the system uses lift blocks combined with add-a-leaf springs or optional full replacement leaf springs, along with new u-bolts and brake line brackets to provide proper lift height while maintaining load capacity and ride stability. The suspension system is paired with FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks, delivering improved damping performance and control both on-road and off-road.
With clearance for up to 40-inch tires, this BDS Suspension lift kit is an excellent upgrade for Ram 3500 owners seeking maximum lift height, improved off-road capability, and a bold lifted stance.
