2" 2014-2018 Dodge Ram 2500 Power Wagon 4WD Backcountry Lift System by Carli Suspension

This Carli Suspension CS-D3-BC-CS-14-H Backcountry 2-inch lift system for the Dodge Ram 2500 4wd Power Wagon models is a premium lift kit that will raise your vehicle enough to fit up to 37-inch x 12.5-inch tires. It is perfect for Ram owners who want the best ride quality on the road, on the highway, during towing/hauling, and at slow to mid-speed off-road.

This lift kit system features 2-inch lift front coil springs with a slightly reduced linear rate for better ride comfort. Paired with the coil springs are Carli Spec 2.0 Performance Series remote reservoir shock absorbers. These shocks use a 2" diameter 6063 aluminum anodized body for corrosion resistance and excellent heat dispersion. Remote reservoirs will increase oil capacity, giving better heat dispersion and performance in extreme conditions. 5/8-inch-diameter hardened steel chrome-plated shafts are also used.

To keep the front axle appropriately centered, an adjustable front track bar is included. In typical Carli fashion, this bar features not found in other track bars. This includes 3/8 inch DOM construction that allows for the use of a 1" x 7/8" FK bearing heim joint with a huge 1" shank.

Radius arm drop brackets lower the factory radius arms, which rotate the axle back to factory angles to maintain proper caster and geometry. Made from 1/4-inch cold-rolled steel, these heavy-duty brackets provide a solid link between the arms and chassis.

In the rear, Carli offers you a choice of rear coil springs that best fit your needs. R1 coil springs will provide .5 to 1 inch of rear lift. These are designed to soften the ride by sacrificing some load capacity (maxed at 1,500 lbs). R2 coil springs provide 2 to 3 inches of rear lift and maintain the factory payload capacity, but offer a firmer ride.

Rear Track Bar: As the Ram 2500’s suspension cycles, the rear axle naturally shifts side-to-side, creating rear yaw that can be felt in the cab. To correct this, Carli offers two solutions: a rear track bar drop bracket that minimizes axle movement while retaining the factory-length bar, or the Carli Extended Rear Track Bar, which dramatically increases track bar length and improves geometry. The result is reduced yaw, improved stability, and far more predictable handling on and off the road.

Required Sway Bar Selection - While Carli does not include a front sway bar correction in this kit it is required to install this lift kit properly. The billet aluminum drop bracket kit works great as a more economical solution. However, for truck owners wanting a HUGE improvement in ride quality the Carli Torsion Sway Bar is your solution and is an amazing upgrade. Designed to allow the front suspension to move more freely without giving up control.
