The first system featuring King Off Road 2.5 Race Shocks and Carli's first premier suspension kit. The Performance 2.5 has been around since day one and, naturally, has been through the longest refinement period of any Carli system. Sporting a plush street drive that will give you a "car like" feel, while still letting you pound some humps in the dirt. The first seasons chasing and running support in Baja were done using the Performance 2.5 system on Carli's own Dodge Ram trucks.

CARLI'S SIGNATURE LONG ARM SYSTEM

The Performance 2.5 System is just another example of Carli's unwillingness to cut a single corner. Sure, they could have included short control arms, and a mini pack out back, but they knew the capabilities of the shocks surpassed some of these items and that ultimately the performance of the suspension would not be fully utilized unless other upgrades were standard equipment to the system. That's why this kit is treated to Carli's signature Long Arm System and Full Progressive Rear Springs along with plenty of other high end components. The Performance 2.5 will do just about anything you can fathom, whether its nailing a whoop section or delivering you the most controlled and comfortable ride on your commute to work.

With the release of the 3" Long Arm, comes the Long-Arm equipped Systems. The decision has been made to discontinue the older, short-arm variation of the Performance 2.5" in favor of a Long-Arm equipped, extended travel version at which you're looking now. This system requires customers to cut off the factory control arm mounts in favor of the Carli Drop Brackets to house the internally gusseted, fully fabricated Long Arm System. These arms are over 50% longer than the factory arms boasting 3/16" construction, internal gusseting, extended travel capability, more linear travel stroke and a better ride quality given their length and position parallel to the ground.

SLIDE OVER DESIGN SHOCK TOWER

To take advantage of the Long Arm's capability, Carli has included a 6.25" tall, slide over-design shock tower to ease installation and accommodate the longer (12" Travel) shocks. Included 1" front bump stop drops and limit straps ensure customers can dish repetitive beatings to their King 2.5" shocks with confidence of full and safe utilization of the shock's travel. In a short arm truck, it's not uncommon to see 7" of up-travel (metal to metal) and 3" of down-travel. The combination of the long arm system's 6.25" tall tower and 1" bump drop allows for the 12" travel shock and shifts the front axle's operating range down 1"; the result, 3" more down-travel when compared to a short-arm system only sacrificing 1" of up-travel. This is a far more balanced setup spec'd with 6" of up travel and 6" of down-travel ensuring the front end maintains contact over rough terrain.

CARLI TUNED LONG TRAVEL 2.5" KING SHOCKS

This system boasts Carli specific, blueprinted, Long-Travel King 2.5" shocks on all four corners. For the Long Arm system, Carli designed a second, off-road oriented 5-Port custom piston opposed to the 3-Ports in a short-arm Pintop 2.5" System. This piston and long arm tuning profile alters flow of the pressurized shock oil displacing a wider surface area of the tuning shims to increase bottom-out on sharp hits while providing a predictable, comfortable street ride. ALL of Carli's King shocks are treated to shafts machined and polished from a solid piece of 17-4 Stainless. Unlike King's standard shafts, there is no coating to wear off, weather is far less likely to hurt them and if there is a small chip, you can round the edges with emery cloth to ensure the seal housing isn't damaged as they're not brittle like the stock, hardened shafts. The shocks are finished with King oil good to -55* F. Note that all King shocks are built with a plated steel body. If subjected to inclement weather for extended periods, we recommend wrapping your shocks in 3M to provide a moisture barrier that's replaceable.

Your truck will sit 3"-3.25" higher in the front (year/cab configuration dependent) with 70% more suspension travel than the factory platform thanks to the taller, linear rate coil springs. These systems require the extended travel capability of the linear spring as the free-height of the multi-rate coils was too short to reach the droop potential.

TORSION SWAY BAR OPTIONS

As this is a high-performance, no-compromise system, it is highly recommended to upgrade the sway bar with Carli's Torsion Sway Bar, but extended end links are optional, and Full Progressive Leaf Springs are standard. The Carli Torsion Sway Bar removes the entire factory sway bar assembly replacing it with a torsion bar supported by fabricated drop brackets and delrin bushings. Fabricated sway bar arms and dual 5/8" FK heim end links round off the package.

TORSION SWAY BAR SPECIFICATIONS:

Selection of the Torsion Sway Bar Replacement will not Require size selection as the entire sway bar assembly is replaced. We need to know if you have a 10mm or 12mm end link. The way you can verify this is if you take an end wrench and measure the nut that compresses the rubber end link bushing. It will be 10mm if it takes a 15 mm socket and it will be 12mm if it takes an 18mm socket. Please verify before ordering.
  • Easily the best bang for the buck upgrade for ride quality
  • Allows front suspension to move freely without giving up control
  • For trucks with 0-3" of front lift
  • Requires removal of electronic sway bar on Power Wagons
  • Torsion Bar may be black or silver zinc; depends on supply chain availability. NOT requestable.

REAR LEAF SPRING OPTIONS

The Full Progressive Leaf Pack lift the rear 1.5-2" by replacing the entire factory leaf spring assembly increasing travel and drastically increasing comfort throughout the entire usable travel stroke at the cost of a 15% payload reduction from a standard 2500. This payload reduction can be supplemented back to factory 3500 SRW capacity with the addition of the Long Travel Airbags for the best of both worlds; ride quality and payload capacity/load control.

STANDARD FULL PROGRESSIVE LEAF SPRING KIT SPECIFICATIONS:
  • 2" rear lift maintains a slight rear-height stance with Carli 3" systems
  • Softens initial spring rate at ride height
  • Minimizes axle wrap / wheel hop
  • Reduces payload to light 3/4 ton capacity
  • Capable of 15" of suspension travel with factory shackle
  • Fits 4" axle tube
HEAVY DUTY FULL PROGRESSIVE LEAF SPRING KIT SPECIFICATIONS:
  • 2" rear lift maintains slight rear-height stance with Carli 3" systems
  • Softens initial spring rate at ride height
  • Minimizes axle wrap / wheel hop
  • Designed for those with 1,500 lbs in bed at all times
  • Capable of 15" of suspension travel with factory shackle fits 4.0" axle tube

ADJUSTABLE TRACK BAR

When lifting the front end of a straight-axle truck, the front axle is pulled off-center unless the proper linkages are addressed. Three inches of front lift equates to an axle shifted toward the driver's side 3/4" and back toward the cab 1/2". This system includes an Adjustable Track Bar to push the axle back toward the passenger side and provide a stronger link with less deflection for the lifted application.

WHEEL AND TIRE FITMENT

This system will fit up to a 37"x12.5" tire with on 17"-18" wheels with 5-5.25" of backspacing. If considering Fiberglass Fenders, a 4.5" Backspacing on a 9" Wide wheels will fit up to a 37x13.5" wide tire. This system was tuned with 17" wheels on, 37" Toyo M/T at 40F/35R. The more rubber, the better the small bump compliance will be at proper inflation pressures. The ride will firm up as you go larger in wheel diameter.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
  • WHEELS: Carli Recommends a 17"-18" Wheel, no more than 9" wide with 5.75" of Backspacing on Leveling Systems
  • TIRES: 37", E-Rated Tire Fitment is Recommended. Recommended unloaded Tire Pressure 45F/40R
  • RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION: Carli Leveling Systems are Designed and Tested on Vehicles with 17"-18" Wheels with 35", E-Rated Tires. Stock wheels and tires or running a larger wheel diameter will result in a stiffer ride.
  • FITTING 37" TIRES: 37" Tires will fit with the above wheel specifications if the system is equipped with Full Replacement Leaf Springs and Control Arms..
  • 2013 2500 APPLICATION: This kit will NOT fit a 2013 2500 as the driver's side rear shock mounts do not fit the 2013 models. Further, there is clearance issues between the shock tower and A/C lines due to the reconfiguration of the 2013 models.

Doesn't really taste like bacon. I know becaused I chewed it. Great as a slower eating thingy.
Style: Dental Chew, Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Dental Medium
So my dog has this thing where she does not want to chew on anything that she is supposed to chew on unless it's a knuckle bone that she cannot be trusted with (because she bites off fragments of bone) or one of those flexible, edible nylabones for "gentle" chewers, which she will eat in a single sitting. If I want to get her to chew something that might actually withstand her for more than an hour, I have to pretend it's mine. It's a secret forbidden treat that I love very much and just "accidentally" left within her reach to steal and covet. So it's pretty much standard practice at this point that, when I get her a new chew toy, I gotta carry it around for a while, pretending to chew on it. I got this bone in the mail and did exactly that, but I noticed right off the bat that, for a bacon-flavored thing, it didn't smell like anything at all. It was just this plain sort of plastic scent. And that's how I ended up actually chewing on it instead of just miming it out because maybe the bacon flavor was under the initial layer? But no, it wasn't. It was just bacon-colored plastic. So if your dog is the type of chewer that will chew regardless of flavor, this should work out fine. If not, go for something else. My dog did not give a heck about this bone, even once the "this is actually mine but you cleverly stole it away" ritual was completed. After that, I tried putting it in her bowl with her food, thinking maybe the flavor of the food would rub off enough that she'd want to chew it. She didn't, but what did happen is the reason I'm giving this a positive review at all. While it fails utterly as a chew, it makes a really great impromptu "stop eating so fast, you tornado shaped like a dog" mechanism. We've bought actual slower eating bowls for her and never had any success, because she just gives up and cries if she can't get her face into the crevices. But when we put this in her regular round bowl and pour her wet food around it, she's able to nose the benebone around in the bowl as she eats her food, but it does slow her down considerably. She's way less farty and whiny after food time, which anyone who has experienced how specifically racid dog farts can be will know is a blessing. So, thanks, Benebone. For us, your product is worthless as a chew, but invaluable as a makeshift slower eating thingy. Edit: Benebone got in contact with me about my review and offered to refund my purchase and send me some different products to try. I declined the refund, because I do find the bone I bought useful for the above-described purpose of slowing my dog down when she eats. But I did accept the samples. She's still pretty unimpressed with them, and I will probably end up passing them along to other dog-havers I know, but I myself am pretty impressed with Benebone's customer service and so have changed my review from 3 stars to 4. It was "suggested" that I mention that other dogs will probably be more satisfied with Benebone's flavors if they are not as picky as my dog is, and that sampling a Benebone yourself is maybe not the most reliable way to test its tastiness, when dogs have much more sensitive noses/tongues than humans. Which is certainly true! But I don't think my dog is a complete alien for wanting something with slightly more discernible flavor and scent. And I do think some of the advertising for Benebone implies more of that than you actually get in the finished product. So I'm gonna have to double down on my previous assessment that, if your dog likes to chew for the sake of chewing, Benebone will probably really appeal to them. But if they're a more food-motivated chewer, you're better off with fully-edible chews like rawhide or bully sticks.

My Dog’s Favorite – Durable & Keeps Them Busy
Style: Fishbone, Flavor Name: REAL Jack Salmon, Size: Small
This is my dog’s favorite chew by far. I used to go through chew toys constantly and could easily be replacing them every week, but this one actually holds up. It keeps my dog engaged and gives me peace of mind knowing it’s something they enjoy and I can trust in terms of durability. If you have a dog that goes through toys quickly, this is definitely worth trying.

My Pitbull absolutely loves the bacon flavor.
Style: Stick, Flavor Name: REAL Bacon, Size: Medium
This is officially my dog’s new favorite toy. She plays and chews on this thing nonstop. She has dozens of toys and she doesn’t touch any of them unless, she forgets where she left her bacon stick. This is a must for the perfect Dental Toy. I kinda suspected she’d love these things, so I also bought the knob in chicken flavor. She likes the chicken but, it’s so obvious she loves the bacon flavor. Smart girl. I absolutely love bacon also, bacon is perfect by itself, and it makes everything else much better. Except a bacon martini, so disgusting. The main reason I bought two was to put one in my vehicle, for road trips. My dog is my child, my Princess, so she goes almost everywhere with me. I knew this would be great for keeping her entertained and distracted while we’re out running errands and stuff. I always keep separate toys in the cars for her to chew on. A few years ago I forgot to grab a few toys out of the bin and she decided that boredom was a good excuse to chew on a seatbelt, no cool. Ever since then I decided to have dedicated toys that stay in the vehicles, so I’ll never forget again. The toys she loves the most are the ones I buy multiples of. One for the house and one for each vehicle. For me it’s simpler. I did notice at first, her gums did bleed a tiny bit. She’s a Pitbull, very aggressive chewer but, only with certain toys. This is definitely one of those toys. The bleeding stopped after a few days and things are back to normal. This is truly a unique product. I call it a toy but it has many positive perks. It’s her favorite. She plays with it all the time. Any time I need to distract her for something I grab the Benebone and show it to her, she immediately gets excited and self soothes. I feel like dental hygiene is the biggest bonus of all though. I’d say 80% of her toys have dental hygiene in mind, that’s very important to me, along with not having bad breath. She see’s a flavored toy, and I see her getting dental praises at every vet visit. All parties are extremely happy. This toy is also extremely durable. With that said, I knew she wouldn’t be able to chew through it overnight, or even in a week. It’s tough finding toys that she won’t chew through overnight. This product is lasting her a long while. It’s not always about the price. To me, a toy lasting more than a few months is more important than the money spent. Based on the video ad I saw online I knew it’d be a durable product, plus I love supporting happy families that bring something different, and unique to market. Happy family equals happy products. Once it arrived and I could feel the material and texture in my hands I knew for sure “no way she’s gonna chew through this fast, or maybe not at all”. Even though it really is lasting for a long time, I still feel like she’s chewing through it faster than other dogs. That’s just my particular dog. I had a tough time picking the right size for my dog. My Pitbull is small, about 35lbs. But man does she chew in the 100lbs + size range. I really wanted the biggest size for her but, I thought I don’t want it so big she won’t be able to even chew on it, or even just getting her jaws around it. So I went with ONE SIZE ABOVE the size/weight chart that is provided in the description, and it turned out to be perfect for her. It’s small enough she can chew and have fun. It’s too big for her to bite chunks off. In the past she’s bitten chunks off all her small toys. I put both the chicken and bacon in front of her to see which one she’d grab first. Of course it was the bacon. Then it took them both and put them in her toy bin to see which she’d grab. Again the bacon right away. I love bacon too, great choice thinking like me. So I the bacon flavor stays in the house, and the chicken I put in my car for road trips. The noises my dog makes while chewing and playing with this thing drives my wife nuts. It doesn’t bother me at all, not even a little. Thanks to multiple tours to Iraq, I can completely ignore petty noises and sounds. My wife on the other hand, will tell her to play in a different room. She listens and goes into a different room. That applies to both us for all of our dog’s toys, not just this one. To be honest these Benebones do have kind of a hard texturized plastic feel to them, so yes it does make a tiny bit of noise when she’s playing and chewing. I can almost promise and guarantee that any every dog will love the Benebone in any of the shapes, sizes, and flavors. It really is the perfect toy for a dog. Especially for aggressive chewers like my Pitbull, Princess Polly. She keeps her favorite toys in her bed. This Benebone has a spot beside her big squeaky tennis ball, rubber tug-a-war, and her deer antler. I haven’t even seen her touch the other toys since I bought the Benebone. I am extremely happy with my purchase and will for sure be buying more forever. I recommend buying multiple for inside your home and for each vehicle. You will not be disappointed, unless you buy one and your dog looses it and forgets where they hid it for later.
