The Carli Extreme-Duty Ball Joint Package for 2013-2023 Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD is a high-performance suspension component designed to enhance durability and steering precision. Comprising upper floating king-pins and lower spherical joints, these ball joints are engineered to handle lateral loads and allow smooth knuckle movement through the steering cycle. The upper joints feature a pin and housing contact design that distributes lateral loads more effectively, while the absence of sleeves eliminates failure points. A Viton seal protects against environmental elements, and the joints are constructed with hardened surfaces created through carburizing, resulting in a case-hardness of 20-25 thousandths. The entire assembly is coated with a corrosion-resistant gray finish, ensuring long-lasting performance in demanding conditions.
Designed specifically for 2013 through 2023 Ram 2500 and 3500 models with 4WD, these ball joints are a direct replacement for factory components, offering superior durability and performance for off-road, towing, or heavy-duty applications. They are intended for use on trucks that require enhanced load distribution and wear resistance, making them suitable for aggressive driving or challenging terrains. Installation involves replacing existing joints with these heavy-duty units, which are built to withstand the stresses of off-road and heavy-duty use. The kit includes the necessary components for a straightforward upgrade, providing a reliable solution for maintaining optimal steering and suspension integrity over time.

Overview
Overview
Ball joints are made up of a lower ball joint and upper floating king-pin. The upper ball joint is designed as a pivot point determining the axis on which the knuckle will move and thus, only sees a lateral load. The lower ball joint tracks the knuckle on an imperfect axis, the spherical lower is required to allow the knuckle to move freely with only a slight vertical travel through its steering cycle. Carli Extreme-Duty Upper Ball Joints have a pin and housing but the “hat” of the pin contacts the housing. This adds a second wear surface to further distribute the load applied laterally to the ball joint while providing the same failsafe as a factory ball joint ensuring the pin cannot be pulled through the bottom of the ball joint housing. Further, there is no sleeve isolating the wear surfaces, eliminating the point of failure. A Viton Seal at the bottom of the housing prevents the environment elements from entering the ball joint. The lower joints have no liners of any kind. At the top, a bronze wear surface preloaded by a disc spring, safety washer and snap ring ensures the ball joints wear surfaces are always held tightly together for superior performance. Materials and process play an important role in the impressive durability and performance of Carli Extreme-Duty Ball Joints. It starts with masking. All surfaces but the wear surface are masked with a copper plating. Once plated, the ball joints head to carburizing. The carburizing creates an extremely hard surface with a case-hardness (penetrating depth) of 20-25 thousandths. When the ball joint has completed the carburizing/heat treatment, it’s stripped of the copper masking, leaving the entire joint heat treated and the wear surfaces incredibly hard. The entire joint is then covered with a corrosion resistant gray coating for protection from the elements.
