The Pin-Top 2.5 is hands down, the most popular suspension system produced by Carli. And the reasoning is simple, it delivers the best ride and overall suspension performance for how the majority of Ram owners use their truck. It soaks up pot holes for your daily commute like they didn't exist, but it can still work hard on the trails on the weekends. Featuring hard core components and 2.5" diameter shocks for leveled perfection that will allow you to clear 37" tires, it doesn't get any better than this!

The Pin-Top 2.5 is the most economical way to run a King Off Road Racing Shock package on your Dodge Ram. Carli's most popular system, the Pintop kit boasts 2.5", Remote Reservoir King Shocks. Designed and tuned in house for the customer looking for substantial on-road and off-road performance improvement. You can expect a softer ride with more control and bottom-out resistance than the Backcountry.

CARLI TUNED 2.5" KING SHOCKS

This system boasts Carli specific, blueprinted, King 2.5" shocks on all four corners. In an effort to provide you with the best product, Carli designed a custom piston to determine proper base flow rates to ensure the shock works well in the heavy duty truck platform; they then tuned the shocks around the custom pistons based on the only thing that really matters, seat-of-the-pants feel. The shocks are then treated with shafts machined and polished from a solid piece of 17-4 Stainless. Unlike King's standard shafts, there is no coating to wear off, weather is far less likely to hurt them and if there is a small chip, you can round the edges with emery cloth to ensure the seal housing isn't damaged as they're not brittle like the stock, hardened shafts. The shocks are finished with King oil good to -55* F. Note that all King shocks are built with a plated steel body. If subjected to inclement weather for extended periods, we recommend wrapping your shocks in 3M to provide a moisture barrier that's replaceable.

REAR LEAF SPRING OPTIONS

Your truck will sit 2.5"-3" higher in the front with 50% more suspension travel than the factory platform thanks to the taller, lighter rate coil springs. The rear is lifted 1"-2" via your choice of either a Progressive Add-A-Pack or Full Progressive Leaf Pack. The Progressive Add-A-Pack replaces the factory overload with a 5-Leaf, progressive pack that changes the final rate of the spring pack keeping the rear planted while increasing traction and predictability. The optional Full Progressive Leaf Pack replaces the entire factory leaf spring assembly increasing travel and drastically increasing comfort throughout the entire usable travel stroke at the cost of a 15% payload reduction from a standard 2500.

ADD-A-PACK SPECIFICATIONS:
  • Replaces lower overload spring
  • More predictability and spring progression keep tires planted
  • 1" lift matches to our 3" front systems
  • Includes u-bolts and center pins
FULL PROGRESSIVE LEAF SPRINGS SPECIFICATIONS:
  • 2" rear lift maintains slight rear-height stance with Carli 3" systems
  • Softens initial spring rate at ride height
  • Eliminates factory block, minimizes axle wrap / wheel hop
  • Reduces payload to light 3/4 ton capacity
  • Capable of 15" of suspension travel with factory shackle
  • Requires but does not include 5" bump stop drop bracket

SWAY BAR OPTIONS

When pairing added down-travel with the taller ride height, the position of the factory, and front sway bar will need to be altered as well. For this, you'll receive extended, Sway Bar End Links. The End links are equipped with 1/2" FK Rod-Ends and in-house machined 17-4 stainless bodies that are extended over stock to reset the sway bar engagement points. Factory pillow-bushings are re-used to assemble the sway bar to the lengthened link.

SWAY BAR END LINKS SPECIFICATIONS:
  • Machined out of 17-4 stainless steel
  • FK Bearing, chromoly rod-end

When lifting the front end of a straight axle truck, the front axle is pulled off-center unless the proper linkages are addressed. Three inches of front lift equates to an axle shifted toward the driver's side 3/4" and back toward the cab 1/2". In order to rectify this, you will need to purchase separately an adjustable track bar and relocation bracket.

WHEEL AND TIRE FITMENT

This system will fit up to a 37" tire with Extended Control Arms and Full Progressive Leaf Springs on wheels no more than 9" wide with 5.75" of backspacing. If running factory control arms or wheels; we recommend an All Terrain 35" tire. The more rubber, the better the small bump compliance will be at proper inflation pressures. The ride will firm up as you go larger in wheel diameter.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
  • WHEELS: Carli Recommends a 17"-18" Wheel, no more than 9" wide with 5.75" of Backspacing on Leveling Systems
  • TIRES: 35", E-Rated Tire Fitment is Recommended. Recommended unloaded Tire Pressure 45F/40R
  • RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION: Carli Leveling Systems are Designed and Tested on Vehicles with 17"-18" Wheels with 37", E-Rated Tires. Stock wheels and tires or running a larger wheel diameter will result in a stiffer ride.
  • FITTING 37" TIRES: 37" Tires will fit with the above wheel specifications if the system is equipped with Full Replacement Leaf Springs and Control Arms.
  • LEAF SPRING OPTIONS: Carli gives you two options for rear spring packs with this system. The standard springs are an Add-A-Pack leaf spring pack that replaces the rear, lower overload spring for increased ride quality, but will reduce payload by 15%. Carli also offers a full replacement spring that softens the initial spring rate at ride height, minimizes axle wrap and is capable of 15" of wheel travel, but will also lower the payload by 15%.
