Carli Pintop 2.5 Leveling System Base 2.5in Lift 2014–2022 Ram 2500 Coil Rear
The Carli Pintop 2.5 Leveling System is built for Ram 2500 owners who want a quality big-shock suspension system with moderate lift height, improved ride quality, and strong light- to medium-duty off-road performance. This system delivers a level stance with a 2.5-inch front lift while maintaining the factory rear coil springs to preserve payload and hauling capacity.
At the heart of the system are Carli-specific, blueprinted King 2.5-inch remote reservoir shocks on all four corners. Compared to a 2.0-inch shock, the 2.5-inch shock body provides 55% more piston surface area for increased control and heat capacity. Carli engineers designed custom pistons and tuned the shocks in-house to improve ride quality, handling, and predictability both on-road and off-road.
Key Features:
-
2.5-inch front lift for a leveled stance
-
Carli linear rate front coil springs
-
Carli-specific King 2.5-inch remote reservoir shocks
-
Rear piggyback reservoir shocks tuned for factory rear coil springs
-
Custom Carli shock pistons for proper base flow rates
-
17-4 stainless steel shock shafts for durability and corrosion resistance
-
Adjustable track bar to recenter the axle at the taller ride height
-
Front reservoir mounts display the 9-inch remote reservoirs over the front tire
-
E-brake line relocation brackets provide clearance for oversized rear shocks
-
Maintains factory rear coil springs, payload, and hauling capacity
-
Improves off-road capability without sacrificing towing manners
Notes:
-
This system is not upgradeable to any other Carli Suspension system.
-
Designed for customers wanting a quality big-shock system with off-road capability, minimal lift, and no reduction in payload or hauling capacity.
-
Slight eccentric bolt compensation is recommended to correct caster after installation.
-
No radius arm drops are included.
-
Customers may experience slight front coil spring bow at the 2.5-inch lift height without radius arm drop brackets.
-
Radius arm drop brackets can be added separately to alleviate coil bow and recenter caster adjustment if needed.
-
This system will result in tight, responsive handling.
-
Carli 3-inch suspension systems will ride softer in the rear due to their included reduced-capacity rear springs.
-
Ride quality can be substantially improved with the addition of a Carli torsion sway bar.
-
A Carli low-mount steering stabilizer is recommended for any tire larger than factory size.
-
Recommended tire size is 35 inches.
-
Recommended wheel width is no more than 9 inches.
-
Recommended backspacing is 5.5 to 6 inches.
-
An 18-inch diameter wheel is recommended for optimal ride quality.
-
Recommended unloaded tire pressure is 45 PSI front and 40 PSI rear.
-
King shocks use plated steel bodies. If exposed to inclement weather for extended periods, Carli recommends wrapping the shocks in 3M film to provide a replaceable moisture barrier.
-
King shock oil is rated to -55°F.
