Ram 3500's are made to tow and have all the heavy duty parts to make that happen. Problem is, this leads to poor ride quality and a stiff feel in the rear of the truck. Much of the jarring ride of the 3500 rear can be attributed to the factory vulcanized bushings in the leaf spring pack and shackle. The factory shackle is very strong BUT the design is not conducive to a smooth ride. This is no surprise as a 3500 isn?t made to ride well, it?s made to tow. The 3500 Factory leaf springs are high-spring-rate and short-travel, why would Ram design a shackle that rides well and is capable of extended suspension travel? Vulcanized bushings are a press-fit bushing often utilized by OEMs in which the bushing material is adhered on both points of contact.

In this case the black bushing material is adhered to both the shackle itself and the crush sleeve the bolt goes through. The crush sleeve (silver sleeve that runs the length of the bushing) is very thick making the actual bushing very thin. When your bushing is designed to only move as much as it can deflect and the deflection is minimal, the ride will suffer.

Carli does everything in their power to milk these trucks for as much ride quality as they can. The vulcanized bushings may not seem like a big deal until you consider that there are 6 total bushings fighting suspension movement in the factory configuration ? front leaf spring pivot, rear leaf spring pivot and shackle pivot. Replacing the factory springs with Carli-spec Deavers replace 4 of these (front and rear leaf-spring pivot) with free-moving, serviceable bushings; this shackle replaces the final 2.
In contrast to the factory bushing, the Carli Bushing assembly utilizes more bushing material and a thinner sleeve to prioritize ride damping. Further, their bushings are serviceable. Droop the rear end and grease them through the protected zerk fitting. The grease travels through grease channels in the bushing, around the crush sleeve and to the bushing face for optimal grease migration and bushing life. If you do manage to wear out the Carli Shackle bushings, you purchase new ones and swap them in; reuse the crush sleeve. The factory shackle requires replacement in its entirety when the bushings crack/rot.

In short, the factory shackle is beefy BUT utilizes a press-fit vulcanized bushing designed to bind and resist movement. This makes for a poor ride, no serviceability and no rebuildability. The Carli shackle works wonders to free up the rear end of your 3500 (even fits factory leaf springs) while offering BOTH serviceability and rebuildability.

35% cotton shirt, 25% linen suit
Color: White, Size: 6, Color: White, Size: 6
This formal suit is not as white as I thought it was going to be. It’s off white due to it having 25% linen, which gives it a natural, “more expensive” sort of look. My 5yo said “it’s a little itchy but looks nice”. I think it’s just stiff because it’s new. I’m going to wash the button shirt and see how it is after washing. I do wish it was 100% cotton. The button shirt is made of a cotton blend with 35% cotton. The stitching is very clean. Well made. As you can tell, it’s a little loose on my average size 5yo. I got him size 6. This will be a great suit for one of the kids piano recitals.
