BDS1224H | BDS Suspension 4 Inch Lift Kit With Radius Arms For Ford F-450 Super Duty 4WD | NX2 Nitro Series Shocks

• BDS Forged pitman arm to maximize steering radius at 4" of lift.
• BDS Radius arms are made from heavy duty DOM steel.
• BDS Radius arms restore proper caster angle, axle alignment, and suspension geometry, which helps maintain predictable steering, stable handling, and prevents wander or tire wear.
• Rather than rigid joints, the kit uses OE-style rubber bushings at the frame mounts. These bushings isolate noise and vibration , provide a smoother, quieter ride, and require no ongoing greasing or maintenance
• Choice of Fox shocks ranging from 2.0 to 2.5 Performance Elite.

• 37 x 12.5 with 18 x 9 and in. Backspace
• 37 x 12.5 with 20 x 10 and in. Backspace

HD Radius Arms

In place of the factory stamped steel radius arms BDS supplies a pair of high-strength tubular radius arms. These arms mount into the factory location and offer caster adjustment for a wide range of lift heights along with an OE-style rubber bushing at the frame mount for smooth, quiet, service-free operation.

Pro-Ride Coil Springs

A pair of full-length Pro-Ride coil springs are supplied to provide the correct lift height and smooth, predictable ride across various terrains.

Steering Correction

To optimize steering geometry once lifted, a forged drop pitman arm is used to minimize the steering angle and pair it with a heavy duty track bar drop bracket to keep them in phase through suspension travel while recentering the front axle.
