BDS1923FS | BDS Suspension 6 Inch Lift Kit For Ford F-250/F-350 4WD | 1999-2004 | Front U Bolt Square (MFG Prior 02-28-99), Rear Lift Block Kit Without Factory Overload, Rear Shocks Fox 2.0 Performance Series

Glide-Ride Leaf Springs

Built to outperform, BDS engineered the Glide-Ride leaf springs into a multi-leaf progressive spring rate design that provides a smooth ride with any load. This is accomplished with an exclusive triple-stage leaf spring design. Upgrading to BDS Glide-Ride leaf springs will provide flexibility throughout the suspension cycle.

Steering Correction

To optimize steering geometry once lifted, a forged drop pitman arm is used to minimize the steering angle and pair it with a heavy duty track bar drop bracket to keep them in phase through suspension travel while recentering the front axle.

Front U-Bolt Type

This vehicle was manufactured with either square front U-Bolts or radiused front U-bolts. Typically, 1999-2000 are square and 2001-2004 are radiused, but that is not always the case. The radiused U-bolts aren't square or round, but rather have a gentle radius that matches a cast factory upper U-bolt plate on top of the factory spring. Vehicles manufactured prior to 2-28-99 require yet another different box kit due to a change in the factory track bar. Please make the appropriate selection for your particular vehicle.

Important Notes

1. These truck were manufactured with two different style front u-bolts. You will need to know if your front leaf spring u-bolts are square or are half way between round and square with a gentle radius around the OE cast u-bolt plate before ordering.
2. Vehicles produced before 3/1/99 require a different box kit. You must check the production date on the door prior to ordering.
3. The Superduty came from the factory with a 2", 3", or 4" rear block. If you wish to truly level your vehicle it may be necessary to change the rear OE block.
4. Will not fit dually applications.
5. If your vehicle is equipped with a carrier bearing, you will want the 123402 drop kit in the options section.
6. The front driveshaft will need to be lengthened and/or clearance ground depending on how the vehicle is equipped.
