I installed the muffler a while back and have had the BDS lift in the shop for a while. I finally conned my dad into spending the day putting it on with my Friday. We had other work coming into the shop all throughout the day and were constantly stopping, but managed to roll it out late Friday evening.

I added the Revtek spacer after the fact because the front was substantially lower. It's still not level, which is a little aggravating, but I think the end product turned out again.

Now I need the flares to come back from paint and the N-Fab's to be color matched.

I'm debating doing the 3" body on top of the 6+2 suspension.

Sorry for the camera phone pics. I'll try to update with some better ones later in the week. Tires are 35x12.50R20 Nitto Trail Grapplers.

 

did u have that tire setup before the lift?

 

No. I sold my factory 20's a while back and put on a set of factory 17's off of one of our 3G Ram work trucks. When I did the lift I swapped the new wheels and tires over.

 

ok......i was j/c if u had them on for clearance reasons

regardless it looks sweet!!! get some time on those tires and give us feedback because i for one am interested in the tires

 

the set up looks good.. would be able to tell better from some leveled pics.

I just ordered some 35/12/20 trail grapplers today... looks lik eima need alot of lift lol

 

My buddy did his first BDS lift in his shop. He will not install them anymore since the kit raised the back 7 inches and the front 4. I went to look at the truck and it did not look right at all. Well today he called BDS and asked them what was up with the lift and gave them the measurements and the claim some kits went out with a 4 inch front end kit.

 

they should have called their dealers and had them open the box then. Bad customer service by BDS if thats true. people pay hundreds of dollars to get lifts installed.. its not like they can just go get it fixed for free when the right parts get mailed to them weeks later

 

Maybe it has something to do with the kit's prototype and R&D being a TRX4?

 

They told me (after the fact) that if you don't have a TRX4 you need to order with the 3" rear spring instead of the 5" spring to sit level. They said the 5" spring is so tall it causes the weight to distribute to the front and compresses the front spring.

They claimed by dropping to the 3" spring the back would drop and the front would come up 1".

I have the Revtek spacer on the front and still not quite level, but I think it might be better than dropping the back and hoping it's level
