Configured with FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks, featuring a 2-inch impact extruded aluminum body, internal floating piston (IFP) monotube design, CNC machined 6061-T6 aluminum mounting ends, a massive 5/8-inch hard chrome plated heat-treated alloy steel shaft, race-developed high-flow piston design, application-specific valving, and a long-lasting clear anodized finish.
Overview
This 8-inch 4-Link conversion lift kit is designed for 2011–2016 Ford F250/F350 Super Duty 4WD gas trucks. The Glideride leaf spring system operates in three stages: the primary three leafs remain active under no load for everyday ride quality; secondary leafs engage as moderate loads are applied; and the bottom overload spring activates when the truck is fully loaded for maximum hauling capacity. This allows the truck to maintain ride quality when unloaded without sacrificing payload capacity.

Important Notes
- Exhaust modification may be required to clear the front driveshaft (gas only)
- Front bumper spacer kit may be required to run 38"x15.50" tires
- Although extremely rare, front driveline vibration may occur
- If equipped with a 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
