BDS121152 will increase wheel travel by upgrading the aluminum or stamped steel OE upper control arms (UCA) on your 2016-2018 Chevy Silverado or GMC Sierra 1500 to BDS performance. Specially designed for leveled and lifted applications these arms are built from high-strength 1.5-inch OD x .120-wall steel tubing and feature an indexed ball joint cup to correct the ball joint positioning. These UCAs can be used with BDS 6.5-inch lift kits and other lift and leveling kits on the market. The frame mounting ends feature durometer-specific rubber bushings and premium quality ball joints for smooth quiet operation and superior durability compared to arms featuring uniballs poly bushings or heims.Tapered and roll-pointed leafs add flexibility and provide an even deflection rate Increased wheel travel and a softer ride from tapering allow smoother transition between leafs as compression takes place Higher articulation from bolt-style leaf alignment clamps prevents leafs from fanning out allowing leafs to twist and flex Multi-leaf progressive design for smooth ride Anti-friction pads provide a smooth and quiet ride Bushing Material: Rubber Bushings Included: Yes Construction: Tubular Control Arm Material: Steel Grease Fitting Included: Yes Installation Time: 2-3 Hrs Lift Height: 2_3 IN Pvg Product Status: Active Designed for vehicles with OE stamped steel or aluminum control arms. Will NOT fit vehicles with OE cast steel arms (use #121151). Control arms are much larger than stock. Tire/wheel selection is critical to allow for proper clearance. Optional weld-on steering stops are for cast steel and stamped steel arms only to eliminate any possible contact between the tire and upper control arm (these steering stops cannot be used on aluminum arms). Wheels (stock/leveled) - 4.5" Backspacing required to run 12.50 wide tires. 5" backspacing will work with 11.50 wide tires (285). Wheels (BDS 4.5/6.5) - works with wheels listed on kit fitment. May require the use of supplied weld-on steering stops for some combinations Will NOT fit Magneride equipped models. The included wheel spacer is to be used in the event the factory spare tire needs to be installed this is for temporary use only. Will work with most leveling kits and 6" lift kits on the market.

Wearable Parts - Limited Lifetime Warranty
BDS NX2 Series Shocks and BDS/Fox Performance Series Shocks:
Shock oil seals are not covered by this Limited Lifetime Warranty because they are subject to wear over time and use. At BDS's discretion, leaking shock seals less than 2 years from date of purchase, free from contamination, damage, or abnormal seal wear due to misuse can be considered for repair or replacement under warranty. A shock absorber is a wear item and over time will experience diminished damping resistance due to normal component wear. This is not a defect in material or workmanship and is therefore not warrantable. Defects in material and workmanship do not include such things as dented cylinders or bent rods caused by obvious side impact, rust or corrosion.
Fox Proprietary Shocks and Coil Overs:
Fox Proprietary parts are covered by their warranty and are not included in the BDS Warranty. BDS may offer to assist with the warranty of defective product, at our discretion. Other warranty concerns should be handled through the Fox Service program. Leaking shock seals less than 1 year from date of purchase, free from contamination, damage, or abnormal seal wear due to misuse can be considered for Warranty. FOX service information can be
