BDS1825PSS | BDS Suspension 3 Inch Lift Kit With Fox Coilover Conversion For Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra 2500HD / 3500HD 4WD Diesel | Stock Rear Lift | Fox 2.0 Performance Series Shocks
For 2011-2019 Chevrolet Silverado / GMC Sierra 2500HD / 3500HD
Description
Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, the FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Coilover kit includes everything necessary to set your 2011-2019 Chevy Silverado/GMC Sierra 2500/3500 HD truck up right with clearance for up to 35" tires. These kits feature proprietary FOX 2.5 Performance Elite coilover shocks, designed for bolt-on performance, increased travel, and the ability to soak up the roughest terrain, while maintaining smooth on-road performance.
In addition to replacing the factory torsion bars, the upper and lower control arms are upgraded to improve strength and travel, and to accommodate the new coilovers. The new upper control arms are fabricated from large 1.5" OD x .120-wall tubing, fully TIG welded for the highest quality, strength, and durability. To complement the uppers, the new lower control arms are built from high-strength steel, fully boxed and internally gusseted.
This kit adheres to BDS's engineering standards to improve ground clearance, strength, and off-road protection while correcting suspension and steering geometry for outstanding on-road handling. Up front, the kit utilizes FOX 2.5 coilover shocks, heavy-duty tubular upper control arms, fully boxed and gusseted lower control arms, and multipiece differential relocation brackets to maintain correct CV angles. These, combined with the provided sway bar links, supplied hardware, and more, provide a comprehensive front suspension lift ready for whatever you throw at it.
In the rear, BDS offers replacement lift blocks to lift and level that stance. The lift block installs in place of the stock block and retains ride quality and load capacity. Also for the rear is a U-bolt flip kit for max clearance and precision-tuned FOX 2.0 Performance Series or Performance Elite Series 2.5” shocks for ultimate off-road performance.
