Description
The Carli track bar is intended for use on trucks with 0-3" of front end lift. However, Carli also offers a track bar drop bracket that allows use on trucks with six inches of lift. We haven't met a Ram yet that didn't benefit from upgrading to this Carli track bar. By far one of our top selling items, even on a completely stock truck, it will dramatically tighten up the overall feel of the truck. But if you have a lift or leveling kit, or your truck just suffers from a wandering feeling, you will notice a HUGE difference in the drivability of your Ram. PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS: With a heim joint on one end, and a heavy duty CUB bearing on the other, you will feel a much tighter and controlled front end. Each bar is constructed of 1.50" 0.375" wall chromoly to ensure maximum strength. The pan rod bar will also allow you to center the axle after installing a suspension lift. 6" LIFT TRACK BAR OPTION: Now available for trucks with up to 6 inches of front lift! If you are running a 6" lift, previously you could not install a Carli track bar. However, Carli has just introduced their track bar drop bracket to be used in conjunction with their newly designed track bar to properly recenter the axle on taller lifts.

About Carli Suspension
CARLI SUSPENSION KITS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPONENTS

Yeah, we know Sage Carli can launch a full sized truck over nearly any obstacle. If you are into Baja racing, everyone knows by now that Carli Suspension is the name to go with. What you may not realize is that Carli has a suspension kit for your needs too. You probably don't care anything about having your expensive truck go air born, but you do want the best performance out of your suspension for your application. Carli Starter and Commuter 2.0 systems are designed to give you the best possible street manners compared to any other system on the market while providing ample room for the larger tires you want. Potholes disappear, you find yourself building speed on corners and washboard, and that's just when you are on the way to work. Now imagine heading out to feed the cows WITHOUT hitting your head on the headliner. Imagine coming back from your hunting trip WITHOUT needing a trip to the chiropractor. Take another look at Carli Suspension. It's not all about Baja. It's about YOUR truck and what you do with it. Stop by, we'll give you a ride and show you what you're missing. Just bring the checkbook and permission from the boss! One ride and you'll be hooked!

CARLI KITS

The entire engineering philosophy behind Carli aims to offer the real world Dodge Ram and Ford SuperDuty a suspension system that drastically increases the street drive of the vehicle while offering incredible off-road characteristics. So far, Sage Carli's suspension systems are the only option available where you don't have to compromise.

Carli products are designed to meet the expectations of both the daily street driver and the most extreme avid off road enthusiast. From the urban streets to the most remote places, Carli products will far exceed all your expectations. The easiest way to put this into perspective is that Carli truly builds suspension systems for the enthusiast....the person who truly LOVES their truck and wants to upgrade it with the most thought out, tasteful upgrades on the market. No, this type of individual isn't going to head to Napa to pickup a new track bar. They're going to research the best possible track bar on the market and go that route. Carli Suspension is truly a brand for enthusiasts, featuring products that are built by enthusiasts. Just watch any of Carli Suspension's videos and you'll understand why they have such a passion for their products.

Stock production trucks are built mainly to keep costs down. From a truck enthusiast's point of view these standards simply are not acceptable. From people looking to get a better ride with a more aggressive stance to people looking to get some serious off road performance, Carli understands the needs of these enthusiasts. This is epitomized by the ever growing list of satisfied customers. Carli Suspensions relentless pursuit of producing the best performing suspension systems is something that can be felt every time a customer drives their truck. Carli wouldnt have it any other way.

CARLI COMPONENTS

You know, its not always about a complete suspension. In fact, some of our best selling Carli products are things like a track bar, Carli ball joints, shocks, coil springs, and more. Maybe you've got a clunk in your front end that has been nailed down to being from a worn out track bar bushing and you did your research (mentioned above) and found out that the best track bar for your Ram or Ford is from Carli, so you buy that one. Or maybe you want a better ride, but only want to replace the coil springs for now. No problem. Sure, Carli is centered around their entire systems, but nearly all of their components can be used interchangeably on a stock height truck or one with an existing leveling or lift kit. We do our best to make note of any fitment requirements on each product page, but if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and ask, we're happy to help.

Here at Diesel Power Products we only want to sell the best and lets face it, the stock Ram and Ford suspension needs help. Your stock suspension system is designed to be adequate and nothing more. Carli not only makes the ride of your truck better, it makes it safer. Whether you are towing a trailer on the interstate or doing a little off-road adventure, we will attest that you'll be more than satisfied by upgrading to Carli.

Reviews

Dodge Ram Carli track bar

"This thing is much heavier duty than the factory unit. Install was pretty straightforward, but pay attention to the instructions about loctite usage and torque settings, as this can void any warranty."

Robert H. (5/5)

Q&A

My 08 has a 4" lift, will the carli adjustable track bar work with the drop bracket that is on my truck? Im not sure of what brand the lift is on my truck, it was on it when i bought the truck but i believe its a rough country.
Good question. This should work for your truck. That being said you may need drop brackets to clear everything. Feel free to give us a call 888-993-4373 Mon-Fri 6-6 PST. and we can guide you a bit more. Thank you.
Does the carli track bar work with oversized diff cover particularly g2. Thanks
Unfortunately that differential cover has not been tested by Diesel Power Products or Carli for fitment. If it's close to your factory track bar when your suspension cycles then you might run into some problems. -Mark
Does this come with all new bolts?
This kit has you re-use your factory bolts. -Mark
Does this track bar fit a 1996 Ram 2500 5.9L 4x4. The description does not include the 96 model year. But this product pulls up when you select the 94-98 model year RAM's. Thanks
No it will not unfortunately. 94-02 trucks use a ball joint at the frame that it mounts to. -Sands
I have a 2007.5 2500 6.7 cummins. It has the standard "Y" linkage. I have experienced death wobble since I purchased. So far I've changed upper and lower ball joints, tie rod ends, and added a steering box stabilizer but still get death wobble. I know there's a lot of moving parts involved and it's impossible to provide certainty, but will changing the track bar fix it? Thank you.
It is hard to say for sure if it will fix it or not. But a loose track bar can be a major contributor to death wobble as it allows the axle to move side to side which in turn moves the steering. -Sands
