The Most Advanced Ram 2500 Truck Suspension | Carli Suspension Eventure System 

There's a reason pretty much all our personal rigs are on this system now! It just flat out works!

We always enjoy filming these! Just a one man "crew" on the camera over here!

Seriously? That’s even more impressive! I have literally watched every video you guys have put out and this one is by FAR your best work. The you absolutely killed the lighting! This content was amazing. Almost makes me wish I had a Ram 😂

Thank you and it means a lot to hear that! We put a lot of effort into these videos to try and capture what these trucks can really do. We got super lucky on the lighting with this one too as there was a summer storm over the big bear area, which gave us some killer sunset lighting when we dropped down to the JV lake bed.

I literally have a RU-vid app waiting on your next videos and this far exceeds them all!

So after watching this video a couple times. It seems like the Ram is substantially more composed than the Superduty. Is that a correct assessment? Or is that because of the different rear end?

Spot on! If you want this system, just swap out your shocks and you're set.

Yep, the dynamic capabilities of this sound absolutely essential. I drive highway, then jump off road, and haul 10K in between, and having the dynamic ability to actively support all functions enhanced addresses all of my concerns.

It's a pretty incredible system! Static valved shocks are still plenty solid, but this really is the best of the best from all the testing we've done.

@@CJCOffRoad What's this I hear about the diesel only whatnots though? What's it have to do with the suspension? I have the 5.7l hemi gas in my 2500

@@AllForTheGreen1982 diesel motor is way heavier so front springs and shocks have to be tuned for that

The Dominator still wins for all out off road capability, but this offers a little more resistance to body roll, and a slightly better street ride. We'd say this is the best system for 99% of people, minus those that have the goal of all out high speed off road sending. In that case, there's no replacement for the displacement of a 3.0 shock!

Any plans to offer these shocks for the dominator kit?

Anything is possible, but for now Carli plans to keep the 3.0 systems static valved. That said, a dynamic valved 3.0 shock would be an absolute WEAPON of a shock, so we're hopeful it becomes a reality one day!

@@CJCOffRoad I would buy it!

Sadly no.

All you need is an OBD splitter!

There's lots of people that want quality, and want a truck that can ride smoothly on the road and handle whatever off road. Obviously 99% of customers will never send their truck through whoops like what we showed in this video, but we feel it's important to show that to lend credibility, since there's so many suspension options out there that are nothing more than marketing hype. It matters to a lot of our customers who use these rigs to get to remote job sites, oil fields in texas, or just have fun with on the weekend. The proof is in the pudding when a bolt on system allows a truck made to tow to do things it was never supposed to be capable of. We've never been the types to settle for "good enough" so if people want a zero sacrifice setup, this is it.

@@CJCOffRoad beautiful, I love it! American ingenuity at its finest. I have your 2.5” leveling kit on my 2022 ram 3500 in combination with 7500lb bags in the rear. Perfect setup for me, the ride is great. Thanks!

Sadly no plans for 3500 at this time, so you'll want to stick with the Carli pintop air assist 3500 system specifically designed for your application.

@@CJCOffRoad I posted the comment before I got to the 2500 specific comment in the video lol Hopefully one day it’ll be for the 3500’s. I’d like to jump on it.

It's significantly better in every situation. Softer on the street, more controlled in turns, and better off road. It's a huge change having the shocks able to adapt, as you negate all the downsides that come with static valving, but the reduced body roll is probably the most noticeable feature on 2500s.

At this time the system is diesel only, but a Power Wagon system is likely on the way. The sway bar is tied into the truck's electronics though, so for Power Wagons that has to stay. As for the Jeep, there are no plans at this time sadly!

Sadly no plans for a 3500 version of the Eventure at this time, but we've got plenty of other options for you!

These shocks are designed to be rebuilt and serviced easily, just like a King or Fox 2.5. There's actually no reason to ever replace one either, as you can individually service the different parts and seals. That said, pricing all depends on what's needed, but it's nothing crazy or out of the norm. At this time this is a system 2.5 shock only setup, but we're hopeful 3.0s are going to happen in the future.

It's no different than a standard King, Fox or other 2.5 shock in terms of rebuild actually.

Yep, and if you need more capacity than the Carli coils offer, we now have this new airbag kit: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/dodge-air-bags/products/full-travel-rear-air-bag-kit-2014-current-ram-2500

Sadly the Thuren front coils for 14+ trucks don't have enough travel for these shocks, so you'd need to move to the Carli 3.25" setup. If you pair these shocks with a Thuren coil, they'll drop out of the bucket. That's also why you see Carli using more parts for their 3.25" systems than the Thuren kits.

Very well. We offer this with the normal capacity and R2 high capacity rear coils. In your case, the increased progressive spring rate of those R2 coils would do the "carrying" and then these shocks would handle the damping. The rear load feature of this system is great as well, since you actually have control over the compression valving and ramp up in the cab. If you're loaded heavy for a weekend trip, just adjust the rear compression up, and increase the sensitivity to vehicle roll to keep the truck super planted. Cases like your are why we're so excited about this system.

This is essentially just like the King Pintop in terms of servicing and longevity. If for any reason the electronics fail in the shock, it just becomes a normal, static valved shock, which was a very intentional part of the design.

It's the same as any performance 2.5 King or Fox shock, which really depends on usage. The more dirt you drive and harder you push the shocks, the sooner they'll need a rebuild. We'd suggest 50k or so for a normal daily driver, and less for hard off road use. They can be rebuild at home, just like any other 2.5 shock. The goal was easy servicing!

There's plans, but at this time it's diesel only.

Here's a link to the kit: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/ram-lighting-kits/products/dodge-ram-2500-3500-19-on-a-pillar-kits

Not yet. Carli started with the Diesel 2500 system and will work out from there!

Power Wagon 2019+ potential customer... waiting@@CJCOffRoad

They're actually totally different systems. The E-Venture is our pick for a do it all system that's as comfortable on the street as possible, minimized body roll, and handles everything we show in the video off road. If you want to push even harder in the dirt, that's where the Carli Dominator system comes into play. It's capable enough that you should realistically install a cage on the truck if using it to its full potential. For most people, the E-Venture is more than enough!

Yep! These are aluminum body shocks, so they're extremely resistant to corrosion.

For daily driving and comfort yes, but the Dominator will still out run the E-venture in the dirt.

For now it's 19+ only, but it will expand down to 14-18 soon.

No plans yet, but it's possible!

Should be coming soon!

I would love to have that on my power wagon. I was looking at your pin top, but I think I can wait for this if you guys are making it.

I need this for my power wagon

+1 for a power wagon option

Sadly no. This system is coil rear end only at this time.

Just run an OBD splitter!

@@CJCOffRoad well sure shit easy enough!! See you guys soon.

As long as it's factory rear coil and not air, yes!

Our guess is mid 2024

Yep! You just need an OBD splitter

Think of this system as offering the same capability as your pintop, but with the ability for the shocks to self adjust as you drive. That means the on road ride is significantly smoother, body roll is dramatically reduced, and off road performance is improved thanks to offering a better balance of small bump compliance and bit hit absorption. It's really going to outperform the existing pintop in every situation.

Definitely happy to build a truck. We've even built and shipped a few to Hawaii over the years!

The Dominator uses a static valved 3" diameter King, which means a larger piston and shim stack surface area with more damping force than a 2.5" diameter shock like the Eventure. The Eventure is the best fit for people looking for an all around truck, but the Dominator system is still king of the pile for high speed off road charging thanks to the larger shock displacement.

Sadly not going to happen, as those truck's don't feed the necessary information on steering angle etc that this system needs to function.

@@CJCOffRoad Ooooh sad. Just not monitored through OBD or an external computer huh?

Shoot us an email and we can get you set up with one of our east coast shops. Sales@cjcoffroad.com

Nope! Nothing shown really pushed the truck anywhere near its limit. The front axle is trussed, and it's got upgraded Carli ball joints etc. These systems are designed to handle stuff like what we showed without issue.

Yep! Just use an OBD2 splitter

Yep! You would just order this system: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/2019-ram-2500-carli-suspension-systems/products/carli-suspension-2014-dodge-ram-2500-eventure-3-25-lift-system

Can i add this E-VENTURE - 3″ shock system with my stock suspension components. Like spring? Without needing to buy the more expend option of 8k suspension system kit ?

Give it a couple weeks and it will be!

It's possible, but at this point it's 2500 only.

Seems easy enough to at-least offer a shock package? I realize y'all dont make em but 100% carli is missing out on alot of sales not including shocks for both size trucks.@@CJCOffRoad

The issue is more trying to judge sales volume. It's a LOT of time and R&D to develop and tune these systems, so they want to see how the 2500 version sells before investing in a 3500 variant. We're very hopeful it's going to happen though.

Do you have this system for the 2018 yet?

We will in a matter of weeks!

Sadly likely no as the data the system needs to function isn't present on a 3rd gen

@@CJCOffRoad wow! I see. Thank you. This is one example where new technology in new trucks are not annoying but beneficial 😆

Those situations are few and far between, but it's true in this case! haha

Soon! Carli started with Diesel first and is expanding out from there.

@@CJCOffRoad that is something to really look forward too and keep on saving up for! Thank You

@@CJCOffRoad ok just saw it on a F250 Tremor…..it’s the Power Wagon rear coil overs isn’t it….gosh I love them And hate them a the same time(payload and mods)🤷‍♂️😣😜

Here's a link to see pricing: www.cjcoffroad.com/search?q=Ram+eventure

This truck is on 20x9.5 wheels.

@@CJCOffRoad With this suspension do you feel like you lose or gain anything from going with 20 inch wheels vs 18 ? If so what are pros and cons of each ? Thanks for replying appreciate the knowledge.

The more sidewall the better the ride, so you'd gain even more small bump compliance going with an 18/37 over a 20/37 setup!

The rear suspension and shock design is completely different sadly.

@@CJCOffRoad Interesting - as a mechanical engineer I would have thought commonality would have been order of the day for expediency on the assembly line. Hold off to the 25's come out and that put me into 2026.

Any idea when the system will be available for the 3500's?

Sadly no 3500 version of this system yet.

@@CJCOffRoad dang, hopefully one is in the works
