Diesel-specific Pro-Ride dual-rate coil springs provide a 6-inch front lift. A precision transfer case indexing ring and high-clearance transmission crossmember address driveline geometry at this lift height. Five-inch rear lift via high-strength fabricated steel block.

The 4-Link conversion addresses what the factory stamped steel radius arms cannot: axle positioning control and caster management throughout wheel travel. At 6 inches of front lift, driveline geometry requires the precision transfer case indexing ring and high-clearance crossmember that BDS includes in this kit. FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks provide the off-road damping that matches this lift height. The result is a truck that clears 38-inch tires, maintains controlled handling, and does it with a bolt-on installation. Two non-negotiable pre-order checks: verify your rear spring leaf count (2-leaf vs. 3-leaf) and check for a 2-piece driveshaft. Miss either and the kit won't configure correctly before it arrives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis Product Is For You If\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou own a 2017–2019 Ford F-250 or F-350 Super Duty in a 4WD diesel SRW configuration with a 2-leaf main rear spring pack.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want a 6-inch 4-Link lift that corrects suspension geometry rather than simply adding height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks with application-specific valving at this lift height.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want up to 38-inch tire clearance with a 100% bolt-on installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou are prepared to have ADAS sensors professionally recalibrated after installation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou have confirmed your transfer case type and rear driveshaft configuration before ordering.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis Product Is Not For You If\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour truck is a dual rear wheel (DRW) model.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour truck has a gasoline engine or is 2WD.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour truck has a 6.2L engine with the 6R100 transmission.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour truck has a manual shift transfer case and you are not prepared to modify the shift cable mount.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour rear spring pack is a 3-leaf main — see the 3-leaf main rear block variant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want NX2 Nitro Series shocks — see the NX2 variant of this kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYou want FOX 2.5 Performance Elite Series shocks — see the FOX 2.5 variant.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eProduct Family Reference\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cdiv dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eConfiguration\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eShock Option\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"col\"\u003eRear Block\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBDS1527FS (this product)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFOX 2.0 Performance Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5-inch, 2-leaf main\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNX2 Nitro variant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNX2 Nitro Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5-inch, 2-leaf main\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFOX 2.5 variant\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFOX 2.5 Performance Elite\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5-inch, 2-leaf main\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3-leaf main variants\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVarious\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5-inch, 3-leaf main\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch4 dir=\"ltr\"\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this kit compatible with DRW (dually) models?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. SRW (Single Rear Wheel) models only.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this work with the gas engine?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. The Pro-Ride coil springs are diesel-specific.
