STEERING:

MOPAR 2008.5 DODGE HD STEERING UPGRADE (MOPAR-52122362AL-01)

OR

Synergy HD Steering

OR

Apex HD Steering

We offer three steering linkage choices depending on your needs.

Mopar HD T style linkage is the easiest drop in option for these trucks. It corrects the toe angle change and other flaws found on the factory Y style linkage, and uses heavier duty joints. This steering also allows for the most stabilizer options, including the Carli dual opposing setup.

The next option is Synergy HD steering, which uses a T style configuration, heavy duty linkage, and easily replaceable metal on metal joints. Synergy linkage is ONLY compatible with low mount stabilizers.

The final option is Apex. This option uses heavy duty linkage, metal on metal joints, and has a lifetime warranty on both the linkage and joints which is unprecedented in this market. This linkage does require adding clamps to run stabilizers, so just select the necessary clamps for the stabilizers you choose

If your truck currently has Y style steering and you're moving to this T-style Mopar, Synergy or Apex, you will need the pitman arm listed in the options. Here is a reference photo:

BALL JOINTS:

CARLI DODGE RAM 2500/3500 EXTREME DUTY BALL JOINTS 2003-2013 (CS-DBJP-03)
OR
EMF 2003-2012 DODGE RAM 2500/3500 HEAVY DUTY BALL JOINTS (EMF03DODGEBJ4-01)

These two ball joints get our pick for being the best, and longest lasting joints on the market for these trucks. Made in North America, both options are a huge upgrade over stock, or anything you'd get at a normal parts store. If you're wanting to do ball joints for the last time, these are the way go to. Carli's ball joints come with a lifetime warranty, and EMF joints are re-buildable in the truck. If you've had lot of knurled/splined joints pressed into your truck, the EMF oversized joints are the way to go.

TRACK BAR:

CARLI SUSPENSION 03-13 CARLI DODGE RAM ADJUSTABLE TRACK BAR (CS-DATB-03)

This track bar is without a doubt the best option on the market for the Ram platform. It uses massive 3/8″ wall DOM construction foe the bar itself, a FK rod end heim on the axle side, and an industry leading reinforced, encapsulated 7/8″ Uniball joint on the frame side. This is the last track bar you'll ever need.

STEERING STABILIZER:

CARLI DODGE RAM 03-13 2500/3500 STAINLESS LOW MOUNT STEERING STABILIZER (CS-DLMSS-T)
OR
CARLI SUSPENSION 03-12 CARLI DODGE 2500/3500 HIGH MOUNT STEERING STABILIZER (CS-DHMSS-03-T) NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SYNERGY
OR
CARLI DUAL OPPOSING STABILIZER SYSTEM WITH DIFF GUARD (CS-DSSOSK-T) NOT COMPATIBLE WITH SYNERGY

Steering stabilizers play a key role in fighting feedback from the road. Does your wheel get ripped out of your hands when hitting a one sided pot hole? Changes are you need a better stabilizer. Unlike most options that use normal shocks that are the right length, Carli stabilizers are specifically designed and tuned for steering applications. They also feature a nitrogen pressure adjustment to dial in the driving feel of your truck and fight tire pull. The low mount is a bolt in, factory position replacement. The high mount is great as a high clearance option when used alone, and mounts off the drag link so it's tucked up out of harm's way.

If you want the best of the best, use the dual opposing setup which combines the high mount and low mount in opposite directions so that you have the most damping force possible to fight feedback, and the best possible adjustment range and handling. The opposing setup also pre-loads all the joints of the steering to reduce slop and improve feel. No other stabilizer setup on the market goes this far, but the results speak for themselves. This option also includes Carli's diff guard that's shown in the photos.

EMF BUSHINGS:

These $20 bushings are the cherry on top of your front end re-build, and eliminate the play often found in the upper column joint of the steering. They're probably the best $20 you'll ever spend! if you're buying anything in this kit, these bushings are a no brainer add on. Please note that they are included with any EMF ball joints.

STEERING BOX:

REDHEAD** 2003-2008 DODGE 2500 & 3500 STEERING GEAR (2879)

Steering boxes are a common wear item on these trucks, so we offer a proven replacement. Redhead is the industry leader in steering boxes, and their bolt in factory replacement box is a fantastic option to freshen up the front end.

**The Redhead Steering Box option includes a $300 core charge. This will be refunded to you upon the return of your original core.**
