BDS 4 Inch Lift

[crazywoody]

Looking at going with a BDS 4 inch loft for my 2014 RAM 1500 4x4 CC (non air susp)

I will be using bilsteins up front, the fox 2.0 in the rear and opting for the 3 inch rear spacer instead of the 2 inch in the rear.

My question is if i go with the 3 inch spacer in the rear instead of the normal 2 they offer will it give an extra inch of lift in the rear? Therfore making it a 5 inch lift? Once that is done i can adjust my bilsteins upfront to say the 2 inch setting gaining an extra inch up front aswell and leveling it give or take a setting?

Welcome back! I did some more research on lifts like you said I should...From what I learned, 3-2=1

I think that would be 1" higher [emoji23]

I've done the bds 4" with 3" rear coils your better off doing the 6" leaving bills at 0 and still using 3" rear coils

What's your point? He will achieve the same lift which the set up I said expect with much more room to grow if he wants to go bigger. The 6" with 3" coils is a much better deal.

What do you mean by useing 3 inch rear coils?

The 6" lift kit comes with two options for rear lift coils, 3" lift or 5" lift. If you're looking to get a 4" kit with 3" rear coils and then jack the front end up with Bilsteins to level it then you're better off just getting the 6" kit with 3" rear coils and leaving your Bilsteins at stock height as this will give you better angles on the front A-arms and CV shafts.

The problem is that he wants 5" of lift. Won't settle for 6" or 4".

That +/- 1" doesn't make a huge difference
