Maximize the capability of your 2008 Dodge RAM 2500 and 3500 4WD diesel truck with this 8-inch lift kit with long arm and FOX 2.5 Coil-over conversion from BDS Suspension. These kits feature proprietary FOX 2.5 coil-over shocks designed specifically to bolt-on performance for increased travel and the ability to soak up the roughest terrain along with smooth on-road comfort. Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 38" tires.

BDS developed a mounting system that bolts directly to the factory coil mounts with only minor trimming/drilling required. This new system also includes weld in reinforcements at the axle for superior strength. BDS built the long lower control arms to reduce caster change through wheel travel which creates a more controlled feeling in the steering wheel. This long arm long arm system retains the factory triangulation of the arms which adds to the stability of the suspension system.

Up front the lift kit includes FOX 2.5 Coil-Over shocks, all four control arms plus mounting bracket, forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, bump stops, and sway bar links. In the rear this kit utilizes heavy duty cast steel blocks, longer u-bolts, and a matching set of FOX 2.0 Performance shocks.
