Bring your Chevrolet or GMC to new heights (literally) with this 4.5" system from the suspension gurus at BDS. Getting a lift kit installed is the first step to unleash the power and places you and your truck can go. Fit larger tires, get better visability on the road, better off-road capability, and give the appearance you have always wanted. This unique High Clearance suspension lift kit utilizes high arched crossmembers that blend perfectly with the angle of the factory installed lower control arms for a completely integrated look while lifting your vehicle a full 4-1/2" dramatically increasing ground clearance at the front crossmembers and improving operating geometry. A front differential skid plate comes standard, for increased off road protection.

The rear is lifted with a tapered 3" block for easy installation. This highly customizable kit gives you the choices you need to build your rig your way. Standard or narrow track knuckle kits, gas shocks, and a recoil traction bar kit are just a few of the options and upgrades available for this 4.5" Chevy/GMC suspension lift kit.

Shock Options

This 4.5" Lift Kit comes with the following shock options for your front and rear:

NX2 Series is a solid wallet-friendly choice whether you are staying on the road or heading up a mountain. Built with a nitrogen-charged twin-tube design and 10-stage velocity-sensitive valving for lighting-fast dampening, you can be sure that you will be ready to meet whatever challenge your GM truck can get into. Like your Ram, it's built to last using a 14mm hardened chrome shaft and a fluon-banded piston with self-lubricating seals means rock chips and corrosion aren't going to be your problem. If you are looking for a choice that gives you the best bang for your buck and won't let you down choose the NX2 Series shock.

FOX 2.0 Performance was built with a mind towards making your BDS lifted truck a formidable off-road vehicle. FOX and BDS worked together to specifically tune each valve so that it functions in concert with each BDS Suspension system. Built on a race-developed high-flow piston design and CNC Machined 6061-T6 clear anodized aluminum these shocks won't fail when you need them most. FOX is known for its race products so if you are looking for a suspension that you can depend on when you're pushing your GM truck to the limit these are the ones for you.

Carrier Bearing Drop Kit

A 2-piece rear drive shaft will require some extra work as the geometry of your drive system will now have some added stress. We recommend adding this carrier bearing drop to avoid any potential driveline vibration with the added lift height.

Recoil Traction Bar Kit

Increase your traction and stability without limiting your movement with this BDS Recoil Traction Bar Kit. When your truck is in high torque situations, you need extra help absorbing shocks or vibrations through your system. Install these traction bars to smooth out your ride, increase stability while off-roading, and increase durability throughout your truck.
