The Carli Suspension Fabricated Leaf Spring Shackles CS-DSHACKLE-0313 are an excellent upgrade for your Dodge Ram 2500/3500, designed to replace the jarring ride caused by factory shackles. Much of the jarring ride of the leaf-sprung rear can be attributed to the factory vulcanized bushings in the leaf spring pack and shackle. The factory shackle is very strong but it is not conducive to providing a smooth ride. This is no surprise as these trucks were not made to ride well, they're made to tow. The factory leaf springs have a high-spring-rate and short-travel. RAM did not design a shackle that rides well and provides extended suspension travel. The vulcanized bushings are a press-fit which are utilized by many OEMs and it is adhered on both points of contact.

The OEM bushing material is adhered to both the shackle itself and the crush sleeve that the bolt goes through. The crush sleeve (silver sleeve that runs the length of the bushing) is very thick, which makes the bushing very thin. The bushing is only designed to move as much as it can deflect and when the deflection is minimal, your ride will suffer. Carli does everything they can to milk these trucks for the best ride. The vulcanized bushings may not seem like a big deal, until you consider there are 6 total bushings that fight 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 will allow you to 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. The Carli bushings are serviceable. Drop the rear end and grease them through the protected zerk fitting. The bushings are specially designed with channels for the grease to travel around for optimal grease migration and bushing life.

These bushing are serviceable, if you happen to wear out the Carli Shackle Bushings, you can simply buy new ones and swap them in, reusing the crush sleeve. The factory shackle requires replacement in its entirety when the bushings crack/rot. In short, the original shackle is beefy, but the press-fit OEM vulcanized bushings resist and bind during movement. This gives you a bad ride, no serviceability, and no rebuildability. The Carli shackle works wonders to free up the rear end of your truck (even fits factory leaf springs) while offering BOTH serviceability and rebuildability.

Features:
  • Greaseable & Rebuildable
  • Better Ride Than Factory Shackle
  • 1/4" Steel Construction
  • Fits Factory & Carli Springs

Tough ball. Perfect for large chewing breeds.
Color: 3 Colors
My German Shepherd Dog is a year and half old, and she loves these. They truly are pretty indestructible. It took her a little bit to figure out how to squeak it bc they are tough, but now it’s easy for her. They bounce well too. They are larger than a normal tennis ball but a good size for a large dog. Luna is 85 lbs. I would purchase they again, but I probably won’t need to for awhile.

Enjoyable For Our Dogs
Color: 3 Colors
Very durable material. They have a little squish too them for easy pick up for our 50 pound dogs. Our dogs love all balls. They have a little weight to them, but not excessive for a medium to large size dog. We have an English Springer Spaniel and a Goldendoodle. Fun for playtime, but you probably won’t want to throw them around the house.

A little too hard for our dog.
Color: 4 Colors
These are definitely durable balls. They are a harder than our dog prefers. He does play with them a little and enjoys squeaking them, but he doesn't like to play fetch with them and that is primarily the only thing he really enjoys doing with balls.
