Improved Ranger Ride Capability
This lift kit for a 4WD 2019-2023 Ford Ranger was designed to keep your factory ride quality but still give you bigger, badder tires. You will have more tire clearance and better performance without having to worry about overextending the suspension or driveline angles at full suspension droop, which happens with competitor suspension kits. Competing lift kits wear out their components by putting too much stress on the CV shaft/boot operating at a bad angle. The black e-coated BDS 3.5" Lift Kit fixes this problem to give you a longer lasting suspension upgrade. The ride height is accomplished with a steel fabricated strut spacer and a preload spacer.
High-Quality Font & Rear Lift
A 3.5" lift system is exactly what you need if you want a bigger look with larger tires while maintaining ride quality and handling. The aggressive 3.5" of lift is achieved through the assistance of front upper control arms and rear replacement shackles. The 1.5" DOM tubed UCAs give you more strength and suspension over stock components. An indexed ball joint cup allows for reposition of the upper ball joints for better droop travel. Its Moog ball joints and Clevite rubber bushings also allows for durability, quiet use, and corrosion resistance. In the rear, the factory leaf springs are kept and the new shackles offer 1" of lift. You additionally will get a more leveled stance, a fixed rear pinion angle, and more rear suspension travel. and With a tough 3/8" steel material, the shackles will hold up against abuse.
BDS NX2 Series Shock Absorbers
Unlike most UCA lift kits which usually come packaged with no more than a couple of spring spacers, BDS includes a pair of BDS NX2 shocks to round out your new suspension kit with improved performance and ride dynamics. Equipping these shocks on your ride will greatly improve the overall stability, handling, and performance of your suspension, giving you plenty of confidence for a variety of adventures.
Optional Intrusion Beam
If you want to fit even larger tires to make an even more aggressive '19 Ranger, then you will want to add this
Optional Intrusion Beam to your factory hardware for the ultimate performance. Without this part, you will be limited on tire size due to the factory intrusion beams location in the fenderwells. However, you do not want to just remove this beam because it is crucial for collision safety. The BDS' beam uses a lower profile to keep Ford's safety feature with the addition of a larger tire and suspension lift. With an OE tube appearance, the part uses a tough construction to hold up against obstacles. Plugs additionally keep dirt and debris out of your factory mounts for lasting durability.
Fitment: 2019-2023 Ford Ranger 4WD.
Recommended Wheel & Tire Specs: Aftermarket wheels need a center hub bore greater than 93.1mm. 33" to 34" inch tires are usable with this kit. Please note that because of steering knuckle clearance, 285/70r17 or 285/65r18 tires cannot be installed on factory wheels.
Modifications Required: For installation, some drilling, trimming and strut disassembly is required. BDS recommends that a skilled technician installs the kit and a high quality wall mounted strut compressor is used.
RWD/2WD Ranger Fitment: this shock will not fit an RWD/2WD Ranger out of the box, due to slight differences in the RWD truck's lower shock mounts. Replacing or boring out the included bushing sleeve will allow fitment on an RWD/2WD Ranger.
