The BDS 4-inch lift kit is an amazing upgrade for your 2014-2018
Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra 1500 that will leave others in envy.
Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit
includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance
for up to 33" tires
This kit takes advantage of BDS's tried and true high-clearance
design for improved ground clearance, strength, and offroad protection
while correcting suspension and steering geometry for great on-road
handling characteristics. Up front, the kit utilizes full length
replacement strut shocks, high-arched 1/4-inch thick steel crossmembers
along with a multipiece differential relocation brackets and heavy duty
skid plates built for offroad protection. Steering geometry is corrected
at the new taller ride height with CNC-machined ductile iron steering
knuckles. These combined with the provided sway bar drops, bump stop
extensions, brake line brackets, CV spacers, supplied hardware and more
provide a comprehensive front suspension lift ready for whatever you
throw at it.
In the rear BDS offers both replacement lift block and full
Glide-Ride leaf spring options 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 are new u-bolts, brake line brackets
and precision tuned NX2 Nitro or FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks.
High Clearance Crossmembers
BDS maximizes ground clearance with their heavy duty 1/4-inch thick
laser cut perfect fit crossmembers. Paired with a front skid plate
system that bolts together to create a rigid subframe while adding extra
protection.
Heavy Duty Steering Knuckles
BDS corrects steering geometry at the new taller ride height using a
pair of high-strength, CNC machined ductile cast iron steering knuckle
design to work with factory tie rod ends to maintain steering angles for
proper function and ESC compatibility.
