2011-2016 Powerstroke 8" BDS 4-Link Conversion Lift Kit (BDS1500H)
This BDS system converts your truck to an 8" lifted 4 link setup monster! Why a 4-link system? It's simple, with 10" of wheel travel there is less than 1 degree of caster change (front axle rotation), which means more control in the steering wheel over rough terrain. The stability in the steering wheel is noticeable even under normal driving conditions. In addition to 4 massive control arms, this kit comes with new 4-link frame mounting brackets.
Tire & Wheel Combinations:
- 38" x 15.50" w/ 17 x 9 and 4.5"
- 38" x 15.50" w/ 18 x 9 and 4.5"
- 38" x 15.50" w/ 20 x 9 / 20 x 10 and 4.5"
Notes:
- Exhaust modification may be required to clear the front driveshaft (gas only)
- Front bumper spacer kit may be required to run 38"x15.50" tires
- Although extremely rare, front driveline vibration may occur
- If equipped with a 2-piece rear driveshaft, a driveshaft alignment kit will be required
- Front driveshaft u-joints may max out at full droop. If so, a new front shaft will be required.
- If equipped with a rear sway bar, #123009 is required.
- U-bolts will not work on dually. BDS leaf springs are not intended for use beyond the truck's maximum payload capacity. Trucks equipped with overload springs will only have the capacity of a non-overload-equipped truck. If heavy payload use is desired, supplemental rear airbags are recommended.
