Product Description:
This System Requires the Torsion Sway Bar and Full Progressive Leaf Springs to properly function.
2003-07 Rams MUST convert to factory “T-Style” steering.
The Performance 2.5” is Jack-of-all trades long arm system. Sure, the Pintop rules the bang-for-the-buck but converting these trucks to long arms opens a whole new world of ride quality and corrected geometry. Pair the balanced suspension travel (6” up and 6” down) with a 2.5” King for which we developed a new, long-arm specific, piston and tuning profile and you’ll wonder how you ever lived with short arms. This is a very balanced on-road system and will slay any trail to which you point it. If you’re not seeing daylight under your tires on the daily, this is the perfect kit.

Torsion Sway Bar
As this is a high-performance, no compromise system, we recommend the Carli Torsion Sway Bar, The factory sway bar with extended links would be severely limiting to the performance of this system boasting 50% more suspension travel than factory.
Rear Leaf Options
For the same reason as the above sway bar replacement, we only offer this system with the option for Full Progressive Leaf springs; add-a-packs and stock leaf springs are NOT recommended.
Leaf Spring Shackle
Much of the jarring ride of the leaf-spring rear can be attributed to the factory vulcanized bushings in the leaf spring pack and shackle. The factory shackle is very strong BUT the design is not conducive to a smooth ride. The Carli shackle is constructed of 1/4″ American cold-rolled steel. The mid-length gusset ensures no deflection while the serviceable bushings offer a far superior ride to the bind of the factory bushings.
