The BDS Suspension BDS518H is a 6-inch suspension lift kit engineered to enhance the ride quality, level the stance, and increase the capability of 1983-1997 Ford Ranger 4WD trucks. This comprehensive kit provides clearance for tires up to 33 inches in diameter, improving both aesthetic and off-road potential. Complementing these are heavy-duty axle pivot brackets, radius arm drop brackets, and a forged pitman arm to correct steering geometry. Bump stop extensions are included to manage suspension travel, and the system is finished with precision-tuned NX2 nitrogen-charged shocks for consistent damping performance. In the rear, the suspension lift is achieved using a high-strength cast steel lift block and longer u-bolts. A matching set of NX2 Nitro shocks is provided to ensure balanced performance with the front suspension. The kit emphasizes an easy, bolt-on installation process and utilizes heavy-duty steel drop brackets to maintain proper suspension geometry. This BDS lift kit is specifically designed to fit the 1983-1997 Ford Ranger 4WD, 1984-1990 Ford Bronco II, 1995-1996 Mazda B2300, and 1994-1997 Mazda B3000. It is a complete package aimed at providing a significant lift and improved off-road capability.
