The Carli 3″ Backcountry Suspension System for 2019‑present Dodge Ram 2500 4×4 (Hemi) is a premium all‑around lift and performance upgrade engineered for truck owners who want a comfortable daily ride with real off‑road capability—without the cost or harshness of high‑end race‑oriented systems. Designed around Carli’s renowned tuning, this system delivers smooth, controlled ride quality on highways, city streets, and gravel roads, while still offering enhanced performance when the pavement ends. 

At the heart of the Backcountry System are Carli SPEC 2.0″ remote reservoir shocks with 6063 aluminum bodies, anodized corrosion protection, 5/8″ hardened chrome‑plated shafts, and billet rod ends, tuned with premium 5WT oil for consistent damping across a broad range of temperatures and driving conditions. These shocks, paired with taller, lighter‑rate coil springs, increase suspension travel by about 50 % over stock and give the truck a more compliant, confident feel on‑ and off‑road. 

The system elevates the front of your Ram by approximately 3″–3.5″ (cab‑dependent) and includes a choice of rear coil options so you can tailor ride and load support to your needs. Geometry‑correcting hardware like an adjustable track barkeeps the front axle centered after lift, while radius arm drop brackets restore caster and proper axle placement for predictable steering and handling. This complete kit also includes bump stop drops and a rear track bar drop bracketto reduce rear yaw and maximize shock travel, ensuring the truck behaves confidently in all conditions. 

The Backcountry System is the ideal choice for Ram owners who want a versatile suspension upgrade that thrives on everyday roads, excels at towing and hauling, and still has the capability to comfortably handle slow‑to‑mid‑speed off‑road trails—all while supporting up to 37″ x 12.5″ tires with the right wheel setup.
