Configured with a 3 Inch Rear Block Kit, this option produces a level-to-tail-high appearance at the finished ride height.
Overview
This 6-inch suspension lift kit from BDS Suspension is designed for the 2014 Ford F150 4WD. The kit provides clearance for up to 37-inch tires and addresses suspension and steering geometry at the new ride height. Up front, the kit uses high-arched 1/4-inch thick steel crossmembers, FOX 2.0 Performance Series struts, multi-piece differential relocation brackets, and a skid plate. Steering geometry is corrected with a pair of CNC-machined ductile iron steering knuckles. The kit also includes sway bar relocation brackets, brake line brackets, alignment cam bolts, and all necessary hardware. In the rear, high-strength cast steel lift blocks and longer u-bolts level the stance, paired with FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks.
