The BDS 2157PPS 4-Inch Extended Travel 4-Link Coilover Lift Kit for diesel-powered Ram 3500 trucks combines premium FOX suspension performance with heavy-duty BDS components for improved ride quality, handling, and off-road capability. Designed for clearance of up to 37-inch tires, this system features FOX 2.5 Performance Elite DSC coilovers up front for excellent ride control and adjustability both on and off the road.
The factory front suspension is upgraded with a heavy-duty BDS 4-link system designed to reduce suspension bind while maintaining consistent caster and pinion angles throughout suspension travel. A forged adjustable track bar properly centers the front axle, while sway bar and brake line correction components maintain proper suspension operation at the increased ride height.
For increased suspension travel, BDS includes a 10-bolt transfer case indexing ring that corrects driveline geometry and allows additional front suspension droop. Rear lift is provided by a high-strength fabricated lift block system with longer U-bolts. Rear shock choices include FOX 2.5 Performance Series HTO shocks with position-sensitive Hydraulic Top Out rebound control or FOX 2.5 Performance Elite reservoir shocks with DSC compression adjustment.
The kit can also be configured with factory-style rubber bump stops or upgraded FOX 2.0 Factory Race Series hydraulic bump stops for additional bottom-out control during aggressive off-road use. With its combination of FOX coilover technology, BDS 4-link geometry, and extended-travel design, this system delivers a premium suspension upgrade without sacrificing everyday drivability.

Important Notes
Fits Diesel models only
Special literature required: OE Service Manual for the model/year of the vehicle. Refer to the manual for proper disassembly/reassembly procedures of OE and related components.
Adhere to recommendations when replacement fasteners, retainers, and keepers are called out in the OE manual.
Larger rim and tire combinations may increase leverage on suspension, steering, and related components. When selecting combinations larger than OE, consider the additional stress you could be inducing on the OE and related components.
Post suspension system vehicles may experience drive line vibrations. Angles may require tuning, the slider on the shaft may require replacement, the shafts may need to be lengthened or trued, and the U-joints may need to be replaced.
Secure and properly block vehicle prior to installation of BDS Suspension components. Always wear safety glasses when using power tools.
If installation is to be performed without a hoist, BDS Suspension Co. recommends rear alterations first.
Due to payload options and initial ride height variances, the amount of lift is a base figure. Final ride-height dimensions may vary depending on the original vehicle attitude. Always measure the attitude prior to beginning installation.
Models with two-piece rear drive shafts will require a carrier bearing drop kit. BDS122406
