For those who demand maximum ground clearance, superior articulation, and unmatched stability, the WTD – “Trail Runner” 5″ Suspension Lift Kit is the ultimate upgrade for your Ford Transit RWD. Combining the best features of our Coastal Cruiser and Mojave lift kits, this suspension system delivers true off-road capability, increased track width, and the ability to run larger tires without compromising handling or ride quality.

Engineered for Superior Performance

  • True 5” Suspension Lift – Gain maximum clearance without sacrificing handling or stability.
  • Fully Fabricated Lower Control Arms – Designed with a 7/8-inch heim joint, allowing for 10 inches of articulation for improved suspension travel.
  • Factory Track Width Maintained – Unlike other kits that narrow the front end, our boxed lower arms keep the OEM track width, improving stability and ride quality.
  • 2-Piece 6061 Billet Aluminum Coil Lift/Camber Correction Spacers – Corrects camber for precise alignment while allowing for OEM or aftermarket shocks.
  • Bigger Tire Capability – Clears up to 275/70/17 tires for enhanced off-road traction and aggressive styling (trimming required for proper fitment).

Technical Benefits

  • Maintains Proper Suspension Geometry – Unlike other lifts that stress ball joints and alter handling, this design keeps all components within their optimal range.
  • Lower Ball Joint Replacement Required – You can select factory or adjustable ball joints, and WTD can install them prior to shipping.
  • Optimized for Stability – A wider front track width increases stability for both on-road and off-road driving.

Fitment & Wheel Specifications

  • Transit RWD Single Rear Wheel: 17″ x 8″ | +45mm offset | 6.27″ backspacing
  • Transit AWD Single Rear Wheel: 16″ x 6.5″ | +90mm offset | 7.29″ backspacing
  • Transit Dual Rear Wheel: Stock wheels recommended
  • Optional 3/16″ Wheel Spacers (Front Only) – Helps eliminate subframe rub at full steering lock when running stock wheels.

Key Features

  • 5 inches of suspension lift for improved ground clearance and off-road capability
  • 10 inches of articulation for enhanced wheel travel
  • Maintains factory track width for improved handling and stability
  • Powder-coated finish for long-lasting durability
  • Designed and manufactured in the USA

*Important Notes*

  • Trimming Required – Lower front bumper, pinch weld, and door-side plastic must be modified for proper fitment.
  • Wheel Spacers Recommended – A 3/16-inch thick spacer on the front axle helps prevent subframe contact at full steering lock.

For adventurers, overlanders, and van lifers looking to push their Ford Transit to new heights, the WTD – “Trail Runner” 5″ Suspension Lift Kit delivers the performance, durability, and clearance needed to tackle any terrain.

This kit does require you to change your lower ball joints with the new spindle. For this you can choose to have WTD install factory ball joints or adjustable ball joints. If you would like your ball joints installed with your kit they will need to be added to your cart.
