Description
The single biggest improvement of ride quality out of the entire line of Dodge Ram Components. The OEM sway bar's torsion rate is extremely high and it almost marries the front axle to the chassis. You notice this the most in low speed offset bumps, such as crossing speed bumps one tire at a time and entering or exiting a driveway at an angle where you feel an abrupt side to side rocking of the entire rig. The first thing you feel with a Carli Torsion Sway Bar is a "detached" feel of the axle and chassis... finally they are allowed to work independently of each other without undo movement. High speed performance is greatly improved and you instantly feel that the back end of the truck comes around much better which gives you drive out of corners. If you feel a harsh response of your front end on low speed activity, just think what it's doing during high speed. The factory sway bar gives the truck a lazy feel in corners while you still experience body roll. With a lighter torsion rate and adjustable arm design, the high speed cornering of your Dodge Ram will be a natural cycle of weight exchange, followed by the suspension "setting" in the corner. Twist It...Let your axle move, the way it was designed to. IMPORTANT NOTE: - Torsion Bar may be Black or Silver Zinc; depends on supply-chain availability. NOT requestable.

About Carli Suspension
CARLI SUSPENSION KITS, SYSTEMS, AND COMPONENTS

Yeah, we know Sage Carli can launch a full sized truck over nearly any obstacle. If you are into Baja racing, everyone knows by now that Carli Suspension is the name to go with. What you may not realize is that Carli has a suspension kit for your needs too. You probably don't care anything about having your expensive truck go air born, but you do want the best performance out of your suspension for your application. Carli Starter and Commuter 2.0 systems are designed to give you the best possible street manners compared to any other system on the market while providing ample room for the larger tires you want. Potholes disappear, you find yourself building speed on corners and washboard, and that's just when you are on the way to work. Now imagine heading out to feed the cows WITHOUT hitting your head on the headliner. Imagine coming back from your hunting trip WITHOUT needing a trip to the chiropractor. Take another look at Carli Suspension. It's not all about Baja. It's about YOUR truck and what you do with it. Stop by, we'll give you a ride and show you what you're missing. Just bring the checkbook and permission from the boss! One ride and you'll be hooked!

CARLI KITS

The entire engineering philosophy behind Carli aims to offer the real world Dodge Ram and Ford SuperDuty a suspension system that drastically increases the street drive of the vehicle while offering incredible off-road characteristics. So far, Sage Carli's suspension systems are the only option available where you don't have to compromise.

Carli products are designed to meet the expectations of both the daily street driver and the most extreme avid off road enthusiast. From the urban streets to the most remote places, Carli products will far exceed all your expectations. The easiest way to put this into perspective is that Carli truly builds suspension systems for the enthusiast....the person who truly LOVES their truck and wants to upgrade it with the most thought out, tasteful upgrades on the market. No, this type of individual isn't going to head to Napa to pickup a new track bar. They're going to research the best possible track bar on the market and go that route. Carli Suspension is truly a brand for enthusiasts, featuring products that are built by enthusiasts. Just watch any of Carli Suspension's videos and you'll understand why they have such a passion for their products.

Stock production trucks are built mainly to keep costs down. From a truck enthusiast's point of view these standards simply are not acceptable. From people looking to get a better ride with a more aggressive stance to people looking to get some serious off road performance, Carli understands the needs of these enthusiasts. This is epitomized by the ever growing list of satisfied customers. Carli Suspensions relentless pursuit of producing the best performing suspension systems is something that can be felt every time a customer drives their truck. Carli wouldnt have it any other way.

CARLI COMPONENTS

You know, its not always about a complete suspension. In fact, some of our best selling Carli products are things like a track bar, Carli ball joints, shocks, coil springs, and more. Maybe you've got a clunk in your front end that has been nailed down to being from a worn out track bar bushing and you did your research (mentioned above) and found out that the best track bar for your Ram or Ford is from Carli, so you buy that one. Or maybe you want a better ride, but only want to replace the coil springs for now. No problem. Sure, Carli is centered around their entire systems, but nearly all of their components can be used interchangeably on a stock height truck or one with an existing leveling or lift kit. We do our best to make note of any fitment requirements on each product page, but if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out and ask, we're happy to help.

Here at Diesel Power Products we only want to sell the best and lets face it, the stock Ram and Ford suspension needs help. Your stock suspension system is designed to be adequate and nothing more. Carli not only makes the ride of your truck better, it makes it safer. Whether you are towing a trailer on the interstate or doing a little off-road adventure, we will attest that you'll be more than satisfied by upgrading to Carli.

DIESEL TALK | CARLI TORSION SWAY BAR!
This is one of the most noticeable ride quality improvements you can make to a Dodge Ram. The factory sway bar uses an extremely high torsion rate that effectively ties the front axle to the chassis. You feel it most during low-speed offset bumps, like crossing a speed bump one tire at a time or pulling into a driveway at an angle, where the truck rocks side to side instead of allowing the suspension to move naturally. The Carli Torsion Sway Bar changes that immediately. The axle and chassis are finally allowed to work independently, reducing unwanted movement and dramatically improving ride compliance. The harsh, abrupt feel is replaced with smoother, more controlled suspension action. High-speed handling also benefits. With a lighter torsion rate and adjustable arm design, cornering becomes more balanced and predictable. Instead of feeling lazy with lingering body roll, the truck transitions through weight transfer smoothly and settles confidently into turns. The rear end rotates more naturally, giving you better drive out of corners and a more connected feel overall.

Reviews

"Best upgrade i have done to my truck ride wise i highly recommend this product"

Cory (5/5)

Good upgrade

"Was tired of worn out bushings from a leveling kit so I bought this. Took a long time to get due to back order. Pretty expensive but a good upgrade. Install was fairly easy, but spline measurement was off, some sizes are wrong, and I had a bolt snap on me. Made a big difference, especially going across a local bridge with lots of bumps."

Duke (4/5)

Worth every penny.

"after installing on my 3500, it was such an improvement in ride quality. really noticed on the logging roads when you have the offset pot holes!"

Eric M. (5/5)

Carli sway bar

"Quite a big difference with this swaybar it really seemed to help. My old sawybar links were shot and clunking. The Carli swaybar realy smoothes out the bumps"

John D. (5/5)

Alignment issues

"Helping my friend install her Carli Starter kit with this sway bar. With the 3" lift the end links do not align correctly as the lift moves the axle back and left. We reversed a spacer to make it line up and it appears it will be fine until she gets an adjustable track bar. It's well built and looks trick. I knocked off a star just because no mention is made of this issue ( at least I';ve not seen it) and it's pretty pricey. Keep in mind I'm planning to order the same kit. As always, delivery was super fast. Thanks guys!"

Terry D. (4/5)

Great ride improvement

"This, along with a little weight on the bed (shell and bed slide) really takes the violence and agricultural experience in my 06 QCLB 3500 SRW"

Tim (5/5)

Sway bar

"pretty easy install however no directions included. Went to carli website for them and proceeded from there. Some of the sizes for suggested wrenches were wrong and end link assembly instructions were helpful but vague. Already noticed the side to side rocking going through drainage ditches is substantially improved."

Heidi S. (4/5)

Excellent product

"Adding this to my truck was single biggest handling improvement made. Uneven roads are no issue any more."

Anthony T. (5/5)

Awesome

"Helps a tone with the single sided bumps in the road. Let's the suspension do the work instead of your back. Would definitely recommend!"

Nick (5/5)

Worth the money

"Easy to install. The handling and overall feel of my truck has drastically improved. I can't say how much is from this because I did multiple upgrades at once. I can say my 06 ram is like driving a brand new truck. Recommend to anyone. Once you see this next to the stock sway bar you'll know it was money well spent."

Q&A

Does this come with the sway bar endlinks
Yes it does come with end links.
How will this make my truck handle with a four wheel camper in the bed about 1300lbs
The Torsion Sway Bar allows your axle to move and travel farther compared to the stiff factory sway bar. While we have had some people use with a camper it is not technically recommended due to the amount of body role you will feel in the corners. -Mark
Is this compatible with the BD steering brace.
With a BD steering box brace you will need to run spacers between the sway bar and the brace in order to clear. -Mark
Do you have any idea on the compatibility of running a front receiver hitch with this Carli Sway Bar? For example, Draw Tite Front Receiver part number 65046.
After looking at the install instruction for that hitch. It should not interfere in any way with the sway bar. -Sands
Does it come with new sway mar mounts?
Yes it has to come with new mounts with the way it is designed. -Sands
