Configured with Rubber Bump Stop — factory-style rubber bump stops provide a firm, reliable hard stop for the suspension, protecting shocks and components. Well-suited for road use and light off-roading where bump stops are engaged at low speeds.
Overview
The BDS 3" Radius Arm Lift Kit for Ram 2500 trucks replaces the factory suspension setup with heavy-duty components designed for demanding on- and off-road use. Heavy-duty BDS radius arms improve articulation and provide rugged strength, while the BDS Coilover Conversion Kit fitted with FOX 2.5 Performance Elite coilovers delivers precise damping and improved ride quality. Out back, FOX 2.5 Performance Elite shocks maintain control across varied terrain. An optional FOX 2.0 hydraulic bump stop for the front is available for additional impact absorption during high-speed or heavy-impact off-road use.
