Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
This system fits the 2019 and newer Ram 1500 in standard trims (non-Rebel, non-Off-Road Package) with a coil-spring front suspension, without the RamBox storage system or Multi-Function Tailgate. The standard 1500 rear coil springs included with this system are specifically not compatible with trucks equipped with RamBox, Multi-Function Tailgate, or Rebel/Off-Road geometry — those applications require different Carli systems.
| Year Range | Make | Model | Drivetrain | Suspension | RamBox | Multi-Function Tailgate |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2019–2024 | Ram | 1500 (standard trims) | 4WD | Coil-spring (non-Air-Ride) | No RamBox | No MFT |
Trim coverage: Standard, Tradesman, Big Horn, Lone Star, Laramie, Laramie Longhorn, Limited, and other non-Rebel/non-Off-Road Package trim lines — provided the truck does not have RamBox or Multi-Function Tailgate, and does not have factory Air-Ride.
EcoDiesel note: Carli's confirmed lift figures are based on Hemi-equipped trucks (600 lb front coil rate producing 2.5" of front lift). EcoDiesel Ram 1500s will see approximately ½" less front lift than Hemi trucks due to the diesel engine's additional front weight.
Year range note: Carli's own product listing states "19-24." Trucks model year 2025 and beyond should be confirmed with Carli or OFAS before ordering.

Difference from Rebel systems: The rear coil spring is the hardware that separates this system from both Rebel variants. This system uses CS-RAM15MRC-19-R (standard 1500 non-Rebel progressive-rate rear coils). The Rebel systems use CS-RAM15MRC-RBL-19-R or CS-RAM15MRC-RBL-19-R-HD. The front coil spring geometry also differs between standard and Rebel applications. All shock and UCA hardware is shared across all three Performance 2.5 variants.

Installation Notes
Skill level: Advanced. This is a complete suspension system replacement — coilovers, UCAs, rear coils, rear piggyback shocks, extended sway bar end links, and brake lines. A qualified suspension shop with 2019+ Ram 1500 experience is required.
Post-install alignment: Full front-end alignment is mandatory after installation. Do not drive at highway speed until alignment is completed. Budget for alignment when planning total project cost.
Driveline geometry: At approximately 2" to 2.5" of front lift with new UCAs and performance coils, confirm caster, camber, toe, and U-joint operating angles with your alignment shop after installation.
Critical installation warning — rear shocks: The King 2.5" rear piggyback shocks are longer than the factory rear coil spring perch allows. Installing only the rear shocks without the Carli rear coil springs will cause the factory rear springs to fall out of the truck. The complete system must be installed together. No partial installation.
Required tools (professional shop):
| Tool | Required |
|---|---|
| Vehicle lift rated for Ram 1500 | Yes |
| Torque wrench | Yes |
| Full socket and wrench set | Yes |
| Coilover and spring compressor tools | Yes |
| Alignment equipment or scheduled alignment appointment | Yes |
Torque specifications: Follow Carli's published torque values from the installation instructions. Do not substitute generic torque specs on critical suspension components.
Common Questions
My standard Ram 1500 has RamBox — which system do I need?
Not this one. Carli explicitly states that the standard 1500 rear coil spring (CS-RAM15MRC-19-R) included in this system is only applicable for non-Rebel/non-Off-Road trucks without RamBox or Multi-Function Tailgate. If your standard 1500 has RamBox, it needs the Rebel rear coil springs — which means you order CS-RAM15PERF25-RBL-19 (the Rebel system with standard-load Rebel coils). The Rebel coils are rated to accommodate either Rebel geometry or standard 1500s with RamBox or small constant loads. Text (469) 407-7538 if you're unsure.
What is the difference between this system and the Rebel system (CS-RAM15PERF25-RBL-19)?
Two differences: the rear coil spring and the front coil spring. This system uses springs engineered for the standard 1500's front suspension geometry and unloaded weight. The Rebel system uses springs engineered for the Rebel's unique front suspension architecture. Both systems include identical King 2.5" remote reservoir coilovers, Uniball UCAs, rear piggyback shocks, sway bar end links, and brake line kit. The spring selection is what matches the system to your specific truck.
Is this system compatible with my 2025 Ram 1500?
Carli's published product listing states "19-24" — 2025 and newer Ram 1500 fitment is not confirmed from available source data. Text (469) 407-7538 and OFAS will confirm with Carli before your order ships.
Is a front-end alignment required?
Yes, without exception. After replacing UCAs, coilovers, and spring rates, a full alignment is mandatory before highway driving.
What tire size does this support?
Carli's own build uses 35" x 12.5" tires on 18" x 9" wheels at 4.5" backspace with minimal trimming. Cold tire pressure of 35 psi front and 30 psi rear is recommended when unloaded. Confirm final wheel and tire specs with your installer.
Can I install only the front or rear components separately?
No. The King 2.5" rear piggyback shocks are significantly longer than the factory rear coil spring perch allows. Installing the rear shocks without the Carli rear coil springs will cause factory springs to fall out of the truck. The complete system must be installed together.
The Obsidian Take
This system is for the 2019–2024 Ram 1500 owner on a standard trim — Big Horn, Laramie, Limited, Tradesman, and similar — without RamBox and without the Multi-Function Tailgate, who wants King 2.5" remote reservoir coilover performance on the standard platform. It is the correct starting point for any standard 1500 4WD build that prioritizes both on-road and off-road performance without needing Rebel-specific geometry or HD load capacity.
The RamBox and MFT exclusions are the most important fitment gates on this system. If your standard 1500 came from the factory with RamBox or MFT, this system's rear coil springs are not rated for your configuration — you need the Rebel system (CS-RAM15PERF25-RBL-19), which uses rear coils that accommodate those factory options. This is not a minor detail: using the wrong spring in the wrong application means the truck will not sit at intended ride height and will not ride as the system was tuned to deliver.
It is not for Rebel or Off-Road Package owners — that platform requires Rebel-specific springs and geometry. It is not for any Ram 1500 with factory Air-Ride. And it is not a bolt-it-on-the-weekend job — a qualified suspension shop and a mandatory post-install alignment are the baseline requirements for a system at this price point.
At $5,929 with 148 lb of hardware and King 2.5" dampers tuned by Carli for the standard Ram 1500 platform, this is a complete performance suspension solution — not a leveling kit with shocks bolted on.
