A lifted JK on big tires asks a lot of its suspension: steering angle, axle position and sway bar geometry all change at once, and the damping has to keep up on rough roads.
This BDS 4.5 in lift kit corrects the geometry with Pro-Ride coil springs, bump stop extensions, a drop pitman arm, track bar relocation brackets and fixed length control arms. FOX 2.0 Performance Series shocks with an extruded aluminum body and race-developed piston handle damping, and front sway bar disconnects free up 30 percent more axle articulation. It clears tires up to 37 in.
Install the kit, align the front end, and disconnect the bar when the trail gets tough.
