BDS Suspension 4 Inch Lift Kit, Jeep CJ5/CJ7 (76-81), FOX 2.0 Performance Series Shocks
PN. BDS407FS
A BDS Suspension lift kit raises your truck or SUV to make room for larger tires and add ground clearance, while correcting the geometry that matters for a good ride and safe handling. Each kit is engineered for the vehicle it fits, with components chosen to restore steering, driveline and suspension angles after the lift. BDS kits are offered with a choice of shock packages, so you can match the ride to how you use your vehicle, from daily driving and towing to trail and off-road use.
This part number is configured with shock: FOX 2.0 Performance Series Shocks. Front lift: 4 in (leaf spring). Rear lift: 4 in (leaf spring). Clears tires up to 33 x 12.5. Recommended tire and wheel setups: 33 x 12.5 tires on 15 x 8 wheels with 3.5 in backspacing. Estimated installation time is 6 hrs, rated moderate. Installation notes: Vehicles equipped with the optional Dana 44 axle will require 040005 (Qty. 4) U-bolts listed in the accessories; If your vehicle is equipped with manual steering, you can buy the kit without the PS pitman arm, but BDS Suspension does not offer a manual steering pitman arm. You will need to acquire this from another source; If your vehicle is equipped with an anti-sway bar, a sway bar extension kit (available in the accessories section ) will be necessary for your sway bar to function properly; If your CJ is heavy in the rear ( ie. Hard top with full size spare) you should consider the 114208 add-a-leaf kit in the options to stiffen up the rear leaf springs and reduce the possibility of low rear ride height. This is recommended for all CJ8 Scramblers; Shackle bushing kit 074002 listed in the accessories is highly recommended; Extended brake lines recommended.
Features and Benefits:
- Easy, 100% Bolt-on installation
