CARLI SUSPENSION 2003-2012 RAM 2500/3500 4X4 DOMINATOR 6" SHOCK PACKAGE
May have applicable lead time. Direct ships from Manufacturer
This all-around Shock Package, known as the Dominator, offers unparalleled on-road comfort compared to other short-arm systems from Carli. Its impressive off-road performance makes the truck feel much smaller than it actually is. This marks the end of our shock packages that aim to provide a balance between on and off-road capabilities. Any system above the 3.0” King will excel in off-road capability at the cost of on-road ride quality. For those seeking the perfect balance between on and off-road capabilities without compromising one for the other, this is the ideal choice.
The Dominator boasts front Carli Signature tuned, King 3.0” remote reservoir shocks so large, we needed bore the factory spring buckets for them to cycle properly. We include rear piggy-back 3.0″ shocks to match the fronts. As the old adage goes, there’s no replacement for displacement. In an effort to provide customers with the best product, we do not sell off-the-shelf King 3.0s. 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 seat-of-the-pants feel. We round off ALL our King shocks with shafts machined and polished from a solid piece of 17-4 Stainless. 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. All King shocks are built with a plated steel body. If subjected to inclement weather for extended periods, we recommend wrapping your shocks in 3M to provide a moisture barrier that’s replaceable.
Shock Towers are required to install. Additionally, the Upper and Lower front spring buckets will need to be bored to 4.5″ and rear shock cross member will need to be clearances and plated with the Carli Gusset Kit.
Addition Fabricated Axle Truss and Rear Shock Mounts are HIGHLY recommended.
