PN. BDS753FPE
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 rear lift: Block Kit Without Factory Overload; rear shock: FOX 2.0 Performance Series Rear Shocks. Front lift: 6.5 in (coil-over). Rear lift: 5.75 in (block). Clears tires up to 37 x 12.5. Recommended tire and wheel setups: 37 x 12.5 tires on 20 x 9 wheels with 4.5" to 5.5" in backspacing. Estimated installation time is 9.5 hrs, rated difficult. Installation notes: Models with two-piece rear drive shafts will require a carrier bearing drop kit. (BDS121612); Requires frame bracket modification; Disassembly/assembly of the factory torsion bar system requires the use of a special unloading tool. The GM specified tool # is CH48809; Compatible with diesel models ONLY. Works with standard or AT4 diesel models; Some minor trim will be required with certain wheel/tire combination. This is normal with most aftermarket tire/wheel fitment on Chevy/GM trucks. Trimming will normally include the bottom edge of the inner fender shrouds and/or lower corner of front bumper valance. As a rule of thumb, deeper backspacing and shorter/narrower tires will reduce/eliminate trimming required. Further trimming tips are included at the end of this instruction sheet; Factory 17, 18, and 20" wheels can not be reinstalled due to UCA and Tie rod end interference; In some cases vehicles used in 4WD on the highway regularly could potentially experience a minor front driveline vibration. If this occurs we recommend replacing the front driveshaft with a dual Cardan style driveshaft; Coilover coil has a large amount of preload, a coil spring compressor must be used to remove the coil from the coilover. Failure to use a coil spring compressor may result in death or injury; Do not increase coilover preload; For DRW models, use the w/ overload rear lift option.
