anyone have any input on bds lifts for superduties?

 

I was looking at parts for a BDS lift yesterday. The suspension parts just seemed weak when u compare them to parts on lifts from other companies.

 

Seem to be good springs. Quite a few guys over at the dieselstop have them and they are all happy with their purchase. I have heard that they have one of the softer riding springs on the market and that they are one of the few companies who have their springs made here in the USA.

I'm not sure if they approved by the NHTSA though, a local shop here can only use approved lifts and he said no BDS along with a few others. He didn't say why though.


Hope this helps.

I really don't know anything about BDS but just look of their track bar bracket compared to say Fabtech just looks like its weak. Thanks for steering w/ the right info. Can't really tell by looks i guess.

 

No, you're probably right on the brackets.
I said that they seem to have good springs (one of the softer riding ones), didn't say anything about the bracketry. I compare all the brackets by looks too.



I was just trying to be PC with my response and not mention a better company such as (name omitted so as not to be accused of spamming) .

 

I have a 2inch leveling kit by BDS, and I really like it.
No problems at all, however I'm not crazy about the shocks that came with the kit. I'll need to replace them by the end of the summer. Allready leaking oil.
