Convert the front of your Duramax to the control and strength of a Coilover setup while increasing your ride height by 6.5". Building upon the tried and true BDS high clearance IFS system, this system allows HD owners the ability to eliminate the traditional torsion bar suspension in favor of FOX 2.5 factory series remote DSC Coilovers. Additionally, a weld-in support gusset is used to reinforce the upper mount if you choose to revert back to the torsion bar style suspension.

Notes
- A torsion bar tool is required to unload the torsion bars.

- Models with two-piece rear driveshaft may require a carrier bearing drop kit (#121612).
