Carli Suspension Dodge Leveling 14+ 2500 Diesel Dominator 3.0 System - CS-DD30-1419-D

The Dominator is pinnacle offering in boasting front Carli Signature tuned, King 3.0” remote reservoir shocks so large, we needed to engineer mounting systems front and rear for them to cycle properly and strengthen the chassis for the larger shocks. 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.

The Details: 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. We offer two base kits separated ONLY by the rear coil springs with which they’re spec’d:

The “Base Kit” includes everything required to complete the lift aside from a sway bar modification (listed below). There are 2 optional "Base Kits" - one includes "R1" rear coils, the other "R2".

Front Sway Bar (required)

You MUST select a Sway Bar option with the BASE Kit. This System has been optimized for use with the Torsion Sway Bar; this sway bar upgrade is a HUGE ride quality upgrade. Maintaining the factory sway bar through use of the Sway Bar Drops is only recommended for customers requiring the stiff rate of the factory sway bar - i.e.: those with snow-plows, in-bed campers or who are constantly hauling to the capacity of the truck.

-Sway Bar Drops

• Machined billet aluminum


• Hard-Anodized for corrosion resistance


• Correct factory sway bar geometry on 3" Lift

-Torsion Sway Bar

• Easily the best "bang for the buck" upgrade for ride quality


• Allows front suspension to move freely without giving up control


• Requires removal of electronic sway bar on Power Wagons


• Compatible with 0-4" Front Lift


• Torsion Bar Shaft may be Black or Silver Zinc; depends on supply-chain availability. NOT requestable.

Low Mount Steering Stabilizer (optional)

Bolt in steering stabilizer (factory location). Adjustable from 70-200 psi to run neutral (no directional influence at 70psi) or at 200psi to counter the left-hand pull inherent to tires like Nitto Trail Grapplers. Run in conjunction with the Carli High Mount for the ultimae Dual, Opposing Steering Stabilizer combination that's infinitely adjustable.

• Direct bolt-in replacement


• Corrects left tire pull, adjustable

High Mount Steering Stabilizer (optional)

Bolt in stabilizer adjustable from 70-200 psi to run neutral (no directional influence at 70psi) or at 200psi to counter the right-hand pull inherent to tires like Toyo Mud Terrains.

• Simple, Bolt-in Installation


• Corrects right tire pull, adjustable


• Combines with Low-Mount for opposing stabilization


• Fitment: 2019+ Ram 2500/3500, 4×4, Including Power Wagon


• Fitment: 2014-18 Ram 2500/3500, 4×4 with 19+ Drag Link

Fabricated Radius Arms (optional)

Icing on the cake, these arms add Limit Strap Protection for your Front Shocks, 1/4" Boxed Steel Construction, and Serviceable 3" - 17-4 Stainless Steel Spherical Bearings.

• Massive Strength Upgrade vs. Stock Arm


• Improved ride quality and control


• Internal X-Bracing & Serviceable 17-4 Stainless Spherical Joints


• 12" Quad Wrap Limit Straps, For 3.25" Lift Systems

Front Differential Guard (optional)

Better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

• Protection for your Ring-Gear


• Bolts On In Minutes


• 1/4" Wall Cold-Rolled Steel Construction


• Grade 8 Hardware

Lifetime Ball Joints (optional)

Do your ball joints once, grease every oil change and forget they exist.

• Set of Upper and Lower Ball Joints


• LIFETIME Advanced-Replacement Warranty


• Copper Plated, Carburized and Dry-Lubed


• Includes a tube of Redline CV2 Grease

 Axle Support (optional)

• MASSIVE axle support ensures the axle stays true no matter the beating


• 1.75" OD .0120" Wall Main tube


• 1" OD Main Tube Supports


• 0.250" CNC Cut Finishing Plates


• WELD-ON Fabrication Part

Pretty Much, It doesn't get better than this.

In the front, the shocks utilize a 3.0″ King with a large Pintop Bushing to secure them to the factory location.

The front, lower shock mount – we provide a 1/4″, boxed replacement for the weak, factory stamped, half-welded mount. The top index included in the side specific mount servers to locate the shock mount off the axle’s radius arm mount. Once the factory shock mount is removed, the Carli shock mount will be welded in place providing peace of mind and as much space as possible to cycle the 3.0″ diameter cylinders of the Dominator shocks.

Even slightly offsetting the lower shock mount, the factory brake lines that come over the top of the radius arm need to be relocated to prevent the wiper cap (blue cap on the bottom of the shock body from which the shaft extends) contacting the factory lines. We provide extended Stainless Brake Lines and routing brackets to clear the brake lines from the shocks completely.

Another weak point…. The factory coil buckets offer very little support for the isolator – and thus, the coil – beyond a small hole to index its fitment. Combine this with a lower coil seat that’s angled forward and inward creating a spring pressure that induces both forward bowing and slipping coils. It’s not uncommon to see flattened isolators and springs that look like they’re going to slide forward and out of the bucket. Compound this factory shortcoming by adding big shocks, extended travel, and a heavy right foot off the pavement and additional support for the coils becomes cheap insurance against a coil re-installation off-the-grid! Machined from a solid piece of mild steel, these supports require front suspension disassembly, cleaning of the factory coil bucket, welding, priming and painting. Once in place, they appear factory as they’re nearly completely covered by the factory isolator. With these installed, your coil spring will not budge.

In the rear, we move the shocks from their extremely limiting factory location inside the frame-pocket. The tubular rear frame crossmember exits through the outside of the frame serving as the perfect location to which to weld our replacement upper shock mounts.

The bottom shock mount sandwiches the factory mount utilizing 2 existing holes in the mount as well as the factory shock mounting location with the provided hardware. The mount extends forward and cants outward to align perfectly with the new upper mount while providing optimal tire clearance.

Because the shock position changes, the factory bed support must be modified, we provide a bolt-in solution to support the bed laterally from the factory control arm bracket once the factory support it removed.

To accommodate the radius arm drop-bracket installation, the harmonic dampers on the 2019+ Hemi trucks require relocation.

Last but certainly not least, the e-brake routing bracket. It’s simple, a bolt, spacer and a couple insulated P-Clamps to ensure the factory E-Brake cables don’t run into your massive, new shocks!
