BDS is now shipping a full line of suspension lifts for the 2015-2016 Ford F150 2WD applications. These kits are based off the tried and true systems for the 4WD trucks, now packaged specifically for the 2WD trucks. Kits include:

2.5" Leveling Kit: These 2.5" leveling kits are designed to eliminate the factory rake while improving the trucks all-around performance and allowing larger wheels and tires to be installed. The kit integrates a new top mounted strut spacer in combination with a pre-load spacer to raise the front end while improving the handling and stability. This 2-piece strut spacer system allows the suspension to fully cycle through wheel travel without maxing out the upper ball joints as is the case with taller 1-piece strut spacer kits on the market. An optional 1" rear block kit and your choice of BDS NX2 or FOX 2.0 rear shocks are available. This kit allows for up to 35" tires to be installed.

4" and 6" IFS Lift Kits: These new high clearance IFS lift kits are engineered to the highest standard, using quality materials built right here in the USA. The kit offers a smooth ride and reliable on-road handling coupled with impressive off-road performance and clearance for larger tires. The 4" and 6" systems utilize a pair of one-piece laser cut 1/4" steel crossmembers, CNC-machined ductile iron steering knuckles, crossmember support braces, sway bar relocation brackets, new alignment cam bolts and upper strut mount spacers to retain the OE ride quality and correct the suspension geometry. In the rear an offset pin lift block and u-bolt kit is used in place of the factory block to recenter the axle within the wheelwell and level the stance. Rear brake line extensions and your choice of rear BDS NX2-series or FOX 2.0 performance gas shocks round out these kits. The 4" system allows for up to 35" tires to be installed while the 6" system fits up to 37" tires. These lift kits have been designed, tested, and independently confirmed to integrate flawlessly with the new electronic stability control (ESC) systems and meet FMVSS No.126 compliance safety standards.

4" and 6" Performance Coilover Systems: The 4" and 6" performance coilover systems bring together the safety and capability of the BDS high clearance IFS lift kit with uncompromising performance of FOX factory series 2.5 remote reservoir coilovers and rear Fox 2.0 IFP shocks for true blend of on-road comfort and offroad performance. These systems include all the components of the standard 4" or 6" IFS systems with heavy duty high clearance crossmember, ductile iron steering knuckles, crossmember braces, sway bar relocation, and more. In place of top mounted strut spacers and rear BDS NX2 series shocks these systems use FOX factory series 2.5 front coilovers and rear 2.0 IFP gas shocks for exceptional performance and ride quality on any terrain.

The FOX factory series 2.5 remote reservoir coilovers come pre-tuned with Eibach coil springs for impressive high speed offroad performance with ride height preset for 4" or 6" of lift right out of the box. These coilovers are a bolt in replacement for the factory struts making installation a breeze. The FOX 2.5 coilovers feature:

  • Smooth-bore, clear coated, zinc plated alloy body
  • Black anodized 6061-T6 billet aluminum mounting components
  • 7/8" hard chrome plated heat treated alloy steel shaft
  • High flow piston design with specially formulated race oil
  • External reservoir separates shock oil from high-pressure nitrogen
  • Easy bolt-on installation, coil spring preload set for proper ride height out of the box

4" & 6" DSC Coilover Systems: These systems up the ante ever more by adding FOX 2.5 factory series coilovers with remote DSC (dual speed compression) adjustment allowing you to dial in the trucks performance to optimal performance on any terrain, on or off road. The coilovers come ready to bolt in and tuned for impressive performance tailored specifically to work with your BDS high clearance lift system. The DSC brings a new level of freedom to easily dial in the ride quality to soak up the harsh unpredictable terrain offroad while still providing a plush ride on pavement. The DSC has 12 adjustment points for the high speed compression as well as 10 adjustment points for the low speed compression allowing you to make large or small changes to further improve your performance. Adjustments can be made by simply twisting the "blue" high speed and "gold" low speed compression knobs located on the end of the remote reservoir of the FOX 2.5 coilovers. No tools or shop adjustments needed, allowing you to tune the suspension out on the trail. Along with DSC coilovers these kits come standard with FOX 2.0 IFP performance gas shocks in the rear. These components combined with the tried and true BDS IFS lift system bring an unbeatable suspension to the market for late model Ford F150 trucks.

So where do I find a cost for one of your kits (2017 Ford SD diesel 250) and what would be an approximate fair range of dealer installation costs?

Hey Chris,
Our website is a great tool to get kit info and MSRP. We have info on all current kits, kit and truck photos, recommended wheel/tire size, estimated install time, install instructions, local dealer locator and a kit customizer tool to build kits with available accessories with accurate MSRP. You can also contact your local BDS dealer for a price on the kits.

I have a 2010 2WD F-150 with rough country 6” lift kit. Not a fan on having spacers in the front, do you guys have a coilover that can be purchased in pairs or individually for my truck? Or know any other options? Maybe something along the lines of a coilover for 4” lift and get a 2” spacer instead?

Hey Derek,
While we have not tested our gas strut or FOX coilover options in combination with RCX kits, they will likely bolt right on. With either option we offer full length, replacement parts so no need to stack a spacer to get the correct ride height. Our longer gas struts (#98163) are sold in pairs and install in place of your factory strut. They reuse your factory coil/top plate for a clean appearance. These high pressure gas strut offer improved offroad performance over stock and retain factory ride quality on the road. Your other option is to upgrade to the FOX 2.5 RR coilovers (#88302063) for next level dampening performance. Both parts can be purchased off our website (http://bds-suspension.com/orderByPart) or through your local BDS distributor (http://bds-suspension.com/distributor-lookup).

Hello I have a 2016 f150 2wd single cab and im trying to lift it 6” . Will your kit fit? Tha k you

I have a 2015 f150 2wd i want a 4” coilover suspension . Which one do you recomend? And can i run 33s

Ultimately 33s can fit with 0-2.5″ of lift depending on the wheel specs you are planning to use. Typically the 4″ kit allows for 35″ tires on a moderately spec’d wheel. Both our 4″ coilover kits are great options, #1523F will use the FOX 2.5 remote resi Coilovers and #1523FDSC will use the FOX 2.5 remote DSC Coilovers to allow compression adjustment to dial in ride quality. For more info on each head to our website bds-suspension.com/product?kid=1523F

I have a 2017 f 150 xlt 2wd. I want to be able to fit 35’s on my truck. Which lift will best fit my truck?

Hey John, thanks for reaching out and your interest in BDS. All of these kit listing fit the 2015-2018 F150 2WD models, they just hadn’t been approved at the time this particular announcement was published. Tire fitment is a difficult one to give a black and white answer one as there are a number of factors that play into “fitment”; things like the width of the tire, diameter-width-backspacing of the wheels, how you plan to use the trucks and your comfort level with trimming if necessary. 35s can be fit wit has small Our 2.5″ leveling kit with the right wheel and with some wider wheels may require 6″ for fitment. We list recommended wheel/tire specs with each of our kits, check them out at bds-suspension.com/product?kid=1523H

I have a 2011 f150 XLT 4WD V8 with a procomp lift kit but want to upgrade the coilovers and rear struts with BDSFOX88302063. Will they fit as a replacement without issues? I also have 20in wheels on 37 so I hope they clear. If they don’t fit, can I return them?

Hi HB, while we haven’t tested that particular setup, the (#88302063) FOX 2.5 RR C/Os and (#98224760) rear FOX 2.0 shocks are designed as a direct bolt-in replacement for the taller strut/strut spacer/shock setup used in most 6″ lift kits so you shouldn’t have any issues installing them with your current setup.

Do you offer a 6” lift for a 2017 Ram 3500 with the factory installed rear auto level air bag system yet ?
