Built for Ram 2500/3500 owners who want 5 inches of commanding height without sacrificing ride quality — this BDS lift kit adds serious ground clearance and a more aggressive stance while preserving your truck's driveline geometry and factory handling characteristics. Choose between block-style or leaf-spring designs, and pair your lift with either budget-friendly NX2 Nitro shocks or FOX 2.0 Performance shocks for a ride dialed to your budget and terrain.
Installed and serviced at Road Runner Wheels & Tires. Most kits go in the same day. Call (678) 400-6467 to schedule.
What you get up front
- 5-inch lift blocks — stacked under the rear axle to raise your truck cleanly and keep factory angles intact.
- Front coil springs — engineered for the extra load and dialed to match the rear height.
- U-bolts and hardware — all fasteners rated for the new suspension geometry.
Out back
Rear design comes in two flavors. Block kit (available with or without factory overload springs) delivers a simple, proven lift. Leaf-spring option gives you fresh spring rate and a different ride character if your truck sees heavy towing or payload work.
Pick your shocks
- BDS NX2 Nitro Series — comfortable daily-driver shocks that handle the 5-inch lift smoothly and cost less upfront.
- FOX 2.0 Performance Series — digressive damping and larger bore for controlled wheel travel on rough terrain and at highway speed.
Important notes
- Confirm your factory overload-spring status before ordering — block-kit variants come with or without that feature to match your original setup.
- Verify OE wheel offset and backspacing compatibility; wider aftermarket wheels may require spacers or trimming depending on tire width.
- Maximum tire clearance and driveshaft geometry are optimized for this 5-inch platform — consult BDS or Road Runner specs before upsizing past recommended tire diameters.
Why customers pick this at Road Runner
- Corrected caster and pinion angle — BDS geometry keeps your truck handling true, not pulling or wandering after the lift.
- Professional install in our shop by techs who run these Ram kits every week — no guessing, no comebacks.
- Full BDS warranty backed locally — if anything fails, Road Runner makes it right.
- Choose your shock tier at checkout — mix and match block or leaf-spring with NX2 or FOX to fit your budget.
