3-Inch Radius Arm Lift Kit

The BDS Suspension BDS1712FS is a 3-inch radius arm lift kit engineered to enhance the stance, performance, and capability of 2014-2018 Ram 2500 diesel trucks. This kit achieves a 3-inch front lift via progressive rate Pro-Ride coil springs and a 2-inch rear lift using spacers. It is crucial to note that this kit is designed exclusively for models equipped with OE rear air-ride suspension, and includes new air ride leveling sensor brackets to maintain factory ride height functionality. Key components include heavy-duty replacement radius arms for improved strength and caster adjustment, a high-strength 1-3/8 inch solid steel track bar for steering correction, sway bar links, and brake line brackets. For suspension dampening, the kit features precision-tuned NX2 or FOX 2.0 nitrogen-charged shocks for both the front and rear. The rear setup also incorporates a track bar relocation bracket for proper axle positioning, bump stop extensions, and air bag spacer brackets. Installation is rated as moderately easy and is estimated to take approximately 6 hours. The HD Radius Arms are constructed from high-strength tubular steel and mount in the factory location, offering caster adjustment and OE-style rubber bushings for a smooth, quiet operation. This lift kit provides clearance for up to 35-inch tires, allowing for an improved stance and off-road capability. It is important to ensure your vehicle is equipped with factory rear air-ride suspension for proper fitment and function.
