Carli 3.25" Pathfinder Suspension System 14-25 Ram 6.7L Cummins 2500 with Factory Air Ride

The Carli 3.25" Pathfinder Suspension System is designed for Ram 2500 4WD trucks with the 6.7L Cummins and factory rear air suspension. With approximately 3.25" of front lift and 2" of rear lift, this system increases suspension travel, improves ride quality, and provides clearance for up to 37" tires while maintaining the functionality of the factory rear air suspension. Positioned between the Backcountry and Pintop systems, the Pathfinder is built for drivers who prioritize a smooth, controlled ride on the street while still wanting capable performance on light to moderate off-road terrain. Carli-SPEC 2.5" remote reservoir shocks help absorb small and medium road imperfections while providing increased control and bottom-out resistance when the terrain gets rough. The system is engineered around the Ram 2500 air-ride platform and includes the components needed to correct suspension geometry and accommodate the additional ride height and travel. Factory load-leveling and alternate trailer height functionality are retained, making the Pathfinder a strong option for trucks that still need to tow, haul, and work while benefiting from improved suspension performance. WHAT'S INCLUDED Front linear-rate coil springs Carli-SPEC 2.5" remote reservoir front and rear shocks Brake line tabs and shock reservoir mounts Adjustable front track bar with steering stabilizer bracket Radius arm drop brackets Front bump stop drops Extended transmission crossmember hardware Extended rear sway bar end links Rear airbag spacer for the 3" lift configuration Rear bump stop drop brackets Extended rear ride-height sensor links PATHFINDER 2.5" REMOTE RESERVOIR SHOCKS The Pathfinder shock package is designed to balance everyday comfort with added off-road capability. The 2.5" remote reservoir shocks provide more damping capacity than the smaller 2.0" shock packages used in lower-level Carli systems, helping the suspension remain controlled over rough roads and moderate off-road terrain. On pavement, the Pathfinder is tuned to absorb small and medium imperfections without requiring aggressive driving to take advantage of the improved ride. REQUIRED SWAY BAR OPTION A sway bar solution is required with this 3.25" suspension system to correct the position and geometry of the front sway bar after the truck is lifted. Choose between Carli billet sway bar drop brackets, which retain the factory sway bar, or the Carli Torsion Sway Bar for a more substantial ride-quality upgrade. BILLET SWAY BAR DROP BRACKETS: Retain the factory front sway bar Correct sway bar geometry for the 3.25" lift In-house machined billet aluminum construction Hard-anodized for corrosion resistance TORSION SWAY BAR: Replaces the factory front sway bar assembly Designed to improve suspension compliance and ride quality Includes fabricated drop brackets, sway bar arms, and replacement end links REQUIRED REAR TRACK BAR OPTION A rear track bar option is also required. As the Ram 2500 rear suspension cycles, the short factory track bar allows the axle to move laterally, which can be felt as side-to-side movement or rear-end "yaw." Choose between a rear track bar drop bracket to reduce this movement while retaining the factory track bar or the Carli Extended Rear Track Bar Kit for a larger reduction in track bar angle and rear axle movement. EXTENDED REAR TRACK BAR KIT: 13.8" longer than the factory rear track bar Reduces rear axle yaw and lateral movement Improves rear suspension geometry and handling Uses NVH-isolated PTFE FK bearings for increased service life OPTIONAL UPGRADES LOW-MOUNT STEERING STABILIZER The optional low-mount steering stabilizer replaces the factory-location stabilizer and is adjustable from 70-200 psi. It can be set with no directional influence or adjusted to help counter left-hand tire pull. It can also be paired with the Carli high-mount stabilizer for an opposing dual-stabilizer setup. Direct bolt-in replacement Adjustable nitrogen pressure Designed to reduce steering feedback and unwanted tire pull HIGH-MOUNT STEERING STABILIZER The optional high-mount steering stabilizer installs above the factory steering stabilizer location and is also adjustable from 70-200 psi. It can be used independently or paired with the low-mount stabilizer to create an opposing stabilization system. Simple bolt-in installation Adjustable to help counter right-hand tire pull Can be combined with the Carli low-mount stabilizer FABRICATED RADIUS ARMS Carli's optional fabricated radius arms add strength, improved control, and front shock protection. They use boxed steel construction, serviceable stainless spherical joints, and integrated limit straps designed for the added travel of the 3.25" suspension system. 1/4" boxed steel construction with internal X-bracing Serviceable 17-4 stainless spherical joints Includes 12" quad-wrap limit straps Designed for Carli 3.25" lift systems Requires the included radius arm drop brackets with the Carli 3.25" front lift FRONT DIFFERENTIAL GUARD Add the optional Carli Front Differential Guard for additional protection around the front differential and ring gear when driving off-road. 1/4" wall cold-rolled steel construction Protects the front ring gear Bolt-on installation Includes Grade 8 hardware LIFETIME BALL JOINTS Carli Extreme Duty Ball Joints replace the factory upper and lower ball joints with serviceable components designed for long-term use in heavy-duty trucks. Includes upper and lower ball joints Copper-plated, carburized, and dry-lubed construction Includes Red Line CV-2 grease Backed by Carli's lifetime advanced-replacement warranty WHEEL & TIRE FITMENT This system can accommodate up to a 37" tire when paired with wheels no wider than 9" with approximately 5.75"-6" of backspacing. Carli states that 37x12.5" tires should fit with only minor trimming when used with the factory radius arms, while 37x13.5" tires will require additional trimming and slightly more offset. A 35" tire should fit with very little, if any, trimming. Maximum Tire Size: Up to 37" Recommended Wheel Diameter: 18" Maximum Wheel Width: 9" Recommended Backspacing: 5.75"-6" Recommended Tire Type: 35"-37" E-rated tire Recommended Unloaded Tire Pressure: 45 PSI front / 40 PSI rear IMPORTANT: This suspension system is designed for diesel-powered Ram 2500 4WD trucks equipped with factory rear air suspension. It retains the factory air suspension's load-leveling and alternate trailer height functions. A front sway bar option and rear track bar option are required to complete the system.
