Coldwater, MI\u2014 December 17, 2014\u2014<\/strong>\u00a0In addition to the 2-8″ suspension systems currently offered, BDS Suspension has released\u00a0a 4-link long arm upgrade for late model RAM HD trucks. Designed to fit 2014-2015 RAM 2500 and 2013-2014 RAM 3500 4WD trucks this 4-link conversion improves drivability and control across all terrains on road and off.\u00a0<\/span>This kit allows late model radius arm equipped\u00a0RAMs running\u00a04-8″ of lift to convert over to the BDS 4-link long arm\u00a0for added strength and\u00a0more consistent caster throughout wheel travel for improved handling.<\/p>\n

The kit includes\u00a0all the necessary components to replace the factory (or aftermarket) radius arm setup\u00a0to a 4-link design. The heart of the 4-link upgrade\u00a0is a pair of massive frame-mounted brackets precision welded and engineered to position\u00a0the new upper and lower control arms for\u00a0optimal suspension geometry on\u00a0late model RAM HD trucks. The 4-link brackets are fabricated from 1\/4″ thick steel and wrap around the frame as well as key off the factory radius arm brackets to create an extremely sturdy mount for the new arms. Removal of the factory radius arm brackets is not required allowing the brackets to stay intact to speed up the installation time. The frame mounts are finished in a durable textured black powder coating and badged with a stainless steel BDS nameplate.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The upper and lower control arms are built from 2″ OD x 3\/16″ wall DOM tubing for the strength to take any abuse you can throw at them. They utilize large 2.5″ OD polyurethane bushings to isolate road vibrations and are formed inward to allow for extra tire clearance while repositioning the front axle slightly forward for increase tire clearance to the backside of the front fenders to improve clearance when turning. These arms are finished in a durable textured black powder coating and use grease fittings for easy servicing. Combined with your current 4-8″ lift, this new 4-link conversion system is designed to improve your late model RAM HDs overall performance, comfort and driveability.<\/span><\/p>\n
