Frequently Asked Questions About Carli Suspension


Q. What size tires can I run with your suspension?
A. A 35” tire with the proper offset wheels works great with any of our suspension systems. A 37” tire can also be run but the proper offset and backspacing becomes increasingly important.

Q. How do the 5 leaf progressive add a packs work?
A. Custom made 5 leaf progressive add a packs work by replacing the factory lower overload spring with 5 additional leafs A higher leaf count spring allows the use of a thinner leaf material that yields a more flexible progressive leaf stack, producing a much smoother spring rate curve throughout the complete suspension cycle. These add a packs are designed to keep your stock load carrying capacity as well.

Q. Why is your suspension system better than the competition?
A. We have spent months dedicated to shock valving and spring rates to give the end user a product that has been tuned specifically for the Dodge Ram truck. Partnering with King and Bilstein shocks to find the optimal shock valving for this line of trucks took more than a few months to achieve. Having the correct coil spring rate is just as critical, as both the shock and coil work together to give you an improved ride and better overall performance.

Q. Do you offer drop blocks for the sway bar?
A. The drop block supplied by some companies actually creates leverage on the swaybar by pulling it further from the trucks frame. This makes the sway bar less effective. Instead of using drop blocks we go a step further and machine a set of 17-4 stainless swaybar endlinks. This replaces the factory ball and socket design with a nylon lined F.K. bearing that will last much longer and is much stronger.

Q. Can I upgrade my suspension system down the road?
A. Yes, our suspension systems give you the ability to upgrade components at your own pace. We sell components of our suspension systems separately as well as in package form. There is no need to start over from the beginning in order to upgrade your suspension further.
