Ford Transit 2″ AWD Suspension Lift Kit “Trail Hero”

Price

$9,360.00

Mandatory Add-on

OEM and Method Race Wheels that come with a +90mm offset require less backspacing with coilover shock upgrade. It's necessary to use a 3/16" wheel spacer to provide proper clearance between tire and shock. Preferred backspacing is +60mm.

DESCRIPTION

Take your Ford Transit—2WD, AWD, or Transit Trail—beyond factory limits with the WTD Trail Hero 2″ Suspension Lift Kit. Built for vanlifers, overlanders, and adventure haulers who demand more clearance, better ride quality, and serious off-road performance, this system blends precision engineering with heavy-duty components and King shocks. The result? A suspension kit ready for anything from long highway pulls to desert trails.

Front Suspension – Control Meets Capability

  • True 2″ Lift – Adds clearance without killing geometry.

  • Fabricated Lower Control Arms – ¾″ heim joints = 10″ articulation and stronger wheel travel.

  • Camber + Caster Adjustability – 1.5° of camber correction and in-line caster adjustment (Gen 3) for tighter alignment.

  • LCA Support Bracket – Reinforces weak factory points with a double-shear pivot for lasting strength.

  • King Coilover Struts – Height-adjustable, multiple spring rates, 20-stage external compression adjuster, fully rebuildable.

Rear Suspension – Tuned for Comfort + Durability

  • Progressive Rear Leaf Springs – Spec’d to your van’s weight and lift height for load handling and ride quality.

  • King 2.5 Remote Reservoir Shocks – The largest shock built for the Transit. Adjustable compression, remote reservoirs for heat control, built to take abuse.

  • High-Clearance Shock Mounts – Raises mounting points for more clearance and less damage risk.

  • Upper Support Bracket – Adds strength and clean reservoir mounting.

What You Get

  • More Ground Clearance – Clears up to 265/75/16 tires (trimming required).

  • Better Ride, Better Control – King shocks and leaf springs smooth out rough terrain.

  • All-Terrain Ready – Tuned for highways, dunes, or rocky trails.

Technical + Fitment Notes

  • Trimming Required – Bumper, pinch weld, and plastics need cutting for big tire fitment.

  • Wheel Spacers Recommended – 3/16″ spacers prevent subframe rub at full lock.

  • Transit Trail / QLift – Removes factory 2″ spacer, allows +1″ preload for up to 3″ total lift. Leaf springs replace factory rear blocks.

  • Other Lifts – Don’t stack preload for extra lift; you’ll damage parts.

  • Important: Transit Trail does not gain height—kit replaces the factory spacer with KING coilovers at stock height.

Key Features

  • Fully fabricated LCAs with caster + camber adjustability.

  • 2″ suspension lift while maintaining factory track width.

  • Adjustable ride height for fine tuning.

  • 10″ articulation for serious off-road use.

  • Powder-coated finish, built in the USA.

King Shock Highlights

  • Variable spring rates matched to your setup.

  • Vehicle-specific valving = tuned ride.

  • Built-in bump stops + piggyback reservoirs.

  • Gas-pressured, fully rebuildable, externally adjustable.

If you’re serious about building a Transit that handles heavy loads, rough terrain, and long miles without compromise, the Trail Hero 2″ Suspension Lift Kit is the peak of performance. It’s not just a lift—it’s a suspension system built to last.
