Designed to improve stance, performance, and capability. BDS Suspension has designed this 4.5-inch lift kit for your 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler YJ. This kit includes everything necessary to set your truck up right with clearance for up to 33 inch Tires.

This 4.5-inch lift kit includes front and rear Glide-Ride leaf springs with new u-bolts, front and rear track bar relocation brackets to center the axle, stainless steel braided brake lines, sway bar disconnects, power steering pitman arm, bump stop extensions, a transfer case drop kit to ease the drive line angles and 1 inch xtended shackles to let your springs really flex. Round out this kit with specially tuned NX2 nitro series gas shocks to offer improved damper performance.

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.

These spring feature tapered leafs, anti-friction pads, bolt style leaf alignment clamps and a full military wrap to protect your spring eyes from the rocks. Upgrading to BDS Glide-Ride leaf springs will provide flexibility throughout the suspension cycle.

Rear Lift Option

Select the appropriate rear springs based on the weight of your vehicle and hard top vs. soft top.
