If you are after a truck that can do anything, from handling the rigors of daily driving, hauling a huge trailer, or just flat get dirty on the weekends, the first step is having a proper suspension. The Pintop 2.5 from Carli Suspension is just that. What really separates the Pintop kit from Carli's Commuter and Backcountry kits are the shocks, and what a difference the 2.5's from King make. Featuring Custom King 2.5" Remote Reservoir Shocks with Carli Signature Tuning that are built specifically for the Factory Air Ride Equipped 3500s, we guarantee you that you've never owned a suspension system like this. And once installed, you'll realize you've never owned a truck like this before either.

CARLI 3" PINTOP SUSPENSION SYSTEM COMPONENTS

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 and then adding the Pintop shocks will support the argument that these trucks should come equipped with 2.5" diameter shocks from the factory. Combine this with the 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 you'll experience the perfect solution for those unwilling to settle for good enough. Your truck will sit 3"-3.5" higher in the front (cab configuration dependent) with 50% more suspension travel than the factory platform thanks to the taller, lighter rate coil springs.

AIR ASSIST FULL SPRING PACK

The 3500 air assist Rams tip the scales with a maximum payload exceeding 6,000 lbs. in most configurations. Because of this massive payload capacity, Carli went back to the drawing board with Deaver Spring and designed a progressive leaf spring pack that lifts the rear 2.5" while drastically increasing unloaded ride quality and maintaining the truck's capacity without further stressing the factory air system. With the selected leaf pack in place, Carli had to address the factory air system. After several revisions, they found the perfect spacer height to achieve full travel of the new leaf springs with the factory bag and built a relocation bracket for the rear height sensor to ensure proper operation of the load leveling system so it will continue to function exactly as it was originally intended to. As the front radius arm drop brackets interfere with the factory air tank, this kit will also include a custom bracket and airline to relocate the tank to the spare tire area. The spare tire cavity on these trucks will not accept anything larger than a stock size spare; given the recommended 35"-37" tires with this system, it was the logical choice with the nullification of the factory spare. Another perk, it alleviates the Amp Research Step and air tank interference that is a known issue, even with the Amp Research relocation bracket.

AIR ASSIST FULL SPRING PACK SPECIFICATIONS:
  • Converts rear to full progressive leaf spring design
  • 1" rear lift, matches a 3" front suspension lift
  • Minimizes axle wrap & wheel hop & maintains factory payload
  • Includes sensor, bag, and airtank relocation, airline, hardware and fittings
  • Will only fit 3500 trucks that have factory air-assist

KING 2.5 PINTOP SHOCKS

This system boasts Carli specific, blueprinted, King 2.5" shocks on all four corners. In an effort to provide customers 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 truly matters, seat-of-the-pants feel. This tuning is specific to the 3500 Air-Assist Ram 3500s. All Carli King Shocks are rounded off 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. The shocks are finished with King oil good to -55 degrees Fahrenheit. Note that all King shocks are built with a plated steel body. If subjected to inclement weather for extended periods, Carli recommends wrapping your shocks in 3M to provide a moisture barrier that's replaceable.

SWAY BAR OPTIONS

When pairing added down-travel with the taller ride height, the position of the factory, front sway bar will need to be altered as well. For this, you have two options; Billet Sway Bar Drop Brackets or the replacement Torsion Sway Bar. In order to gain the highest ride quality, we absolutely recommend the Torsion Sway Bar as it allows each wheel to cycle more independently of one another while still keeping a very stable feel at speed. Its really quite impressive what a difference this upgrade alone can make.

SWAY BAR END LINK AND DROP BRACKET KIT SPECIFICATIONS:

  • Combines end links and drop brackets for perfect sway bar position
  • 17-4 stainless steel, fully rebuildable
  • Excellent articulation
TORSION SWAY BAR WITH END LINKS SPECIFICATIONS:
  • Direct fitment to Carli lifts
  • Replaces immobile factory sway bar with custom torsion bar
  • Huge ride quality improvement
  • Includes drop brackets and sway bar links


TRACK BAR AND RADIUS ARM 

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, in the radius arm equipped Rams, lightened caster and slight rearward axle shift. This system includes an Adjustable Track Bar to push the axle back toward the passenger side and provide a stronger link with less deflection for the lifted application. Carli also include Radius Arm Drop Brackets to recenter your caster adjustment and shift the axle forward to its new center of travel. Everything is included to support flawless operation of all components.

WHEEL AND TIRE FITMENT

For single rear wheel (SRW) applications, this system will fit 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.

CARLI RECOMMENDATIONS

For dual rear wheel (DRW / Dually) applications, Carli recommends up to a 35" tire when 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. Carli's 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. Also recommended is 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.


OPTIONAL UPGRADES

  • Leaf Spring Shackle: smooths rear ride, reduces leaf spring binding
  • Long Travel Airbags: supports rear load while maintaining suspension travel
  • Low Mount Steering Stabilizer: reduces steering pull, improves straight-line control
  • High Mount Steering Stabilizer: adds steering stability on lifted trucks
  • Fabricated Radius Arms: improves ride quality, strength, and front-end control
  • Front Differential Guard: protects front differential from impacts
  • Lifetime Ball Joints: improves steering durability and long-term reliability

Another Good One in the Bag
Format: Kindle
Love the change this adventure keeps taking. We go from our LitFantasy to a comic book adventure. One of the most interesting LIT tales I have read so far. The adventure continues to hold you captured and throws in a few twist. Didn’t see those 3 making an appearance in the Reapers Realm. But, no other spoilers, just read it; it’s definitely worth reading!!! Cheers 🍻 Peace ✌🏾 & Love ❤️

I love this series
Format: Kindle
I interesting powers and a funny yet cynical main character who loves smack talk and confusing everyone around him , friends included , Jason from the very first book is just thrown into the deep end and told to swim or die , in this book he's back in his world and has to save it and empower his family while protecting them from everybody around them , allies and enemies alike . It's hilarious when Jason decides to mess with people or his own family , it's a serious book as well and lots of action, he's just trying to be what he needs to be for his family and his world , while also trying to leave it a better place before he moves on the the other world he was dumped in , In his eyes he's only back on Earth to fix mistakes and leave his family better off than when he left them , oh and the world too lol . Read it from the first book to the next one in the series , you won't be disappointed, I wasn't, trust me these books are worth it .

Almost too accurate
Format: Kindle
Another absolutely amazing book in the series, it was scary how exactly on point the actions of various agencies and governments was in this book. It would all play out like this too, absolute chaos for short term gains that in the grand scheme of things mean nothing - almost felt like I was reading "Don't look up" but with gold and silver rankers. As much as I didn't like a certain character and his family, he came through and his private chat brought a tear to my eye. Great job as always, the characters are phenomenal, but like Jason - I'm really ready to be done with Earth, what a dumpster fire.

One Step Too Far But Otherwise Great
Format: Kindle
Huge fan of this series and the multiverse that it has created. I often find find myself laughing out loud at the irreverent main characters quips. I've been five stars all the way for every book so far but I had to drop a star for a very specific reason. This was the first time I was negatively pulled out of the reading experience in this series. (Though, definitely not the first time lol. That totally random, albeit delicious, recipe for lemonade pulled me out that one rime but it wasn't an unpleasant experience). Spoilers follow: Jason's final words to his dead brother's spirit were so inappropriate and crass that I very much hope this isn't the direction that Jason's character is growing toward. I outwardly cringed and had to put the book down for a few days because I wasn't sure this was a character I wanted to continue to read about after reading those lines. Aside from that it was a great book. I truly hope this was a one-off and simply poorly written vs something we can expect more of going forward. Cringe humor can be funny but there's a limit that was drastically overstepped in that line.

Loved it!
Format: Kindle
There seems to be many books out there now with the fake girlfriend/boyfriend, fake girlfriend/girlfriend, or fake fiance/spouse. I actually like this particular trope quite a lot. Some are OK, bad or good. This novel falls in the last category. I really liked this book and will definitely be re-reading it sometime in the future. Tansy and Gemma are very likeable as individuals. As a couple, they have amazing chemistry very early on. One of the best things I liked about this novel is that the author doesn't make us wait until the end of the book for the characters to acknowledge their attraction. They become a true couple early on despite almost everyone thinking it is not real. The writing is well done and I really really liked the main characters. (Have I said that enough times?) There was definitely some heat too! Everything THIS woman is looking for from a romance novel. Definitely recommend. I give it 4 ¾ stars.
