a softer ride with more control
By nature, 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. Customers can expect a softer ride with more control and bottom-out resistance than the stock suspension.
This is Carli's Jack-of-all-trades system designed for the air-assist Ram 3500 owner needing massive capacity who’s unwilling to sacrificing handling or ride quality to get it. Raising the Ram platform then adding the 2.5” diameter shocks will support the argument that these trucks should come equipped with 2.5” shocks from the factory. Combine this with elimination of the funky, factory leaf springs in favor of a predictable, progressive pack and all supporting components for the air system to work flawlessly and we’ve come up with the perfect solution for those unwilling to settle for good enough.

additional KIT DETAILS:
This system boasts Carli specific, blueprinted, King 2.5” shocks on all four corners. In an effort to provide customers with the best product, we designed a custom piston to determine proper base flow rates to ensure the shock works well in the heavy duty truck platform; we then tuned the shocks around the custom pistons based on the only thing that matters to us, seat-of-the-pants feel. This tuning IS SPECIFIC to the Air-Assist Ram 3500s. We round off ALL our King shocks with oversized shafts machined and polished from a solid piece of 17-4 Stainless Steel. 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.
Single Rear Wheel:
Up to a 37” tire when utilizing wheels that are no more than 9” wide with 5.75-6” of backspacing. A 12.5” wide should fit with no rubbing on the factory radius arm and only minor trimming required, while a 13.5” will require more trimming and slightly more offset to fit properly. 35” tires will fit with VERY minimal, if any trimming. We Recommend running an 18” diameter wheel for optimal ride quality (more rubber = better small bump compliance) on a 35”-37” E-rated tire running 45psi front, 40psi rear when unloaded.
Dual Rear Wheel:
Up to a 35” tire when utilizing wheels that are near stock backspacing. DRW Wheels are a different animal, entirely. Some want to remove the front Dually spacers and run standard wheels, others run dually wheels with a slightly increased width to run a wider tire. Our recommendation is to increase the width to run a 12.5” wide tire, but keep the offset/backspacing as near to stock as possible to ensure the rear track width remains as narrow as possible. We Recommend running a 17”-18” diameter wheel for optimal ride quality (more rubber = better small bump compliance) on a 35” E-rated tire running 45psi front, 30psi rear (DRW ONLY) when unloaded.
