2008-09 Ford F250/F350 Super-Duty 4WD 4 in. Front / 2.5 in. Rear With Bilstein Shocks (V10/Diesel Engine). 2008 2009 Truck SuperLift 4 Inch Lift Kit K854B Ford CTGLKS CTGSS
This Kit uses 2 1/2 in. BLOCKS to raise the rear.
Front lift is achieved via replacement coil springs. The caster angle is corrected using radius arm lowering brackets to drop the rear (frame mounted) ends of the radius arms.
Rear lift is achieved by either rear blocks, add-a-leafs, or Superide Springs. Blocks allow for the best ride quality but axle hop can be a problem with large tires and may require traction bars or ladder bars. The add-a-leaf system reduces axle wrap-up but firms up ride quality. Superide rear leaf springs ride better than stock springs with add-a-leafs, but you lose the factory top-mounted overloads and their extra carrying capacity.
Two front and two rear Bilstein shocks, with black boots, are included with each system.
Features
Diesel / Gas Engine specific coil springs ensure proper lift height and factory ride quality. Front compression travel-stop relocation brackets prevent suspension over-compression Track bar relocation bracket prevents bind, body roll and steering wheel kick Dropped pitman arm for the 6" lift reduces drag link angle Threaded front anti-sway bar extensions do not require cutting or welding Proper factory steering stabilizer angle is restored for optimum operation Includes Front and Rear Bilstein shocks with black shock bootsRecommended Tire Size: 35" x 12.5" tire on 9.5" wide wheel with 5.625" back spacing.

Bilstein Shock Absorber performance features:
- The shock body dissipates heat more efficiently.
- Its unique piston/valve assembly provides completely independent valving between compression and rebound cycles which allows it to react faster to changing terrain regardless of vehicle speed.
- Virtually eliminates the possibility of oil foaming with the patented "floating" piston that divides the high-pressure nitrogen gas and shock oil.
- Superior construction for strength and durability.
Foot Notes
116-Do not alter system components to gain lift height.
117-Factory rear overload springs cannot be retained if replacement rear springs are used.
119-Dually applications will require wider U-Bolts. Measure stock U-Bolts and Select Rear Axle Size above. If not sure call for ordering assistance.
125-Vehicles equipped with top mount overload springs will require a 2 inch longer rear U-Bolt Kit - Select Rear Axle Size above. If not sure call for ordering assistance.
