Carli Backcountry Leveling 2.5 System Base 2.5in Lift 2014–2022 Ram 2500
The Carli Backcountry 2.0 Leveling System delivers a strong balance of on-road ride quality, towing control, and mild off-road capability at a reasonable price. Built for 2014 and newer Ram 2500 trucks with factory rear coil springs, this system provides a 2.5-inch front lift while maintaining stock rear height, payload, and towing capacity.
This system uses Carli-SPEC 2.0-inch remote reservoir shocks custom tuned around Carli 2.5-inch front coils and factory rear coils. The result is comfortable, predictable on-road handling with a major improvement in dirt road, job site, and light off-road control compared to stock. The shocks feature 6063 aluminum construction, anodized corrosion-resistant bodies, 5/8-inch hardened steel chrome-plated shafts, 6061 billet rod ends, 1-piece bushings, full serviceability, and premium 5WT oil for consistent damping across a wide temperature range.
