Improve Rig's Stance and Performance

Go big with the BDS Suspension 8-inch lift kit and 4-link conversion for your 2011-2016 Ford Super Duty F250 and F350 diesel truck. Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability, this kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 38" tires. Up front the lift kit includes diesel-specific Pro-Ride coil springs, heavy-duty 4-link control arms, forged drop pitman arm and track bar bracket for steering correction, sway bar relocation, brake line brackets, and custom-tuned nitrogen charged shocks.


Improves Steering and Drive Quality

Convert the factory stamped steel radius arms over to the BDS 4-link to optimize suspension geometry for better handling characteristics while adding strength and stability. This bolt-on upgrade utilizes high-strength 1/4-inch steel brackets that allow mounting of HD upper and lower control arms to correct axle positioning while limiting caster change throughout wheel travel. Comes with a pair of full-length, diesel-specific, Pro-Ride coil springs are supplied to provide the correct lift height and smooth, predictable ride across various terrains.

Note: 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.

Important Notes: 

  • Front bumper spacer kit may be required to run 38"x15.50" tires
  • Although extremely rare, front driveline vibration may occur
  • If equipped with 2-piece rear driveshaft, a driveshaft alignment kit (#123406) 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.
  • Front auxiliary shocks can be omitted from kit - the system can be used with C/O installed alone
