Out of the box, your new '07 Jeep JK is trailworthy. However, if your passion is to push to the extreme or you're just looking to turn your ride into a true head-turner, look no further than the new Pro Comp 4-inch Stage II X Flex suspension system. This complete bolt-on system comes with all the necessary components for top-level performance. Replacement lower control arms are manufactured from CNC-formed, laser-cut, 3/16-inch-thick A36 steel plate with 1/8-inch-thick gusset plates for unyielding durability and come equipped with rebuildable high-angle rod ends and long-lasting polyurethane bushings. Adjustable-length front upper arms are included to optimize alignment specifications. Other features include a heavy-duty, adjustable front track bar constructed from 4130N chrome-moly and an adjustable rear track-bar bracket for proper axle alignment. Front sway-bar disconnects, rear sway-bar links, extended front bumpstops, billet rear bumpstop spacers, offset brake-line relocation brackets, vehicle-specific front and rear coil springs, and adjustable, MX6 monotube, gas-pressurized shocks finish the package and provide an outstanding ride. Systems are available with ES9000 twin-tube gas shocks.

The new Ford Super Duty has jumped far ahead of its predecessors. Everything from a new turbo system, new suspension design, and even upgraded creature comforts keep it a top-tier truck. BDS Suspension wants to make your new Ford even better with its four new 6-inch lift kits for both gas and diesel '08 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty 4WD pickups. The standard 6-inch kits are available in rear block or rear leaf-spring designs. The box kit includes two new radius-arm drop brackets to put the stock radius arm back at factory angle, maintaining your stock driving characteristics. The kit also comes with a new steering stabilizer, antisway-bar drop brackets, a dropped pitman arm for steering-angle correction, a track-bar relocation bracket to properly center your axle and bumpstop extension. Choose the rear 5-inch block kit for a rear that is slightly lower than the front giving the pickup the "prerunner" look. The rear leaf-spring design is for those who want their truck level to slightly tail-high.

The new 6-inch four-link systems are also available with your choice of a rear block kit or rear leaf-spring design. This system will give you 10 inches of wheel travel with less than 1 degree of caster change. This means control in the steering wheel over rough terrain. The stability in the steering wheel is noticeable even under normal driving conditions. In addition to four beefy control arms, these kits come with new four-link frame-mounting brackets. These aren't a drop-down bracket: They actually replace the stock mounting system. Don't worry, no welding is required.
