Adventure X is where the Ram 3500 HD gets a 4 link front end. Instead of radius arms, this 3.5 inch kit uses adjustable 4 link arms and skidded brackets, which Rock Krawler says smooths out the highway ride, improves articulation and gives you better axle control. The rear is lifted with blocks, or risers if you have air ride, and the truck keeps its factory towing and payload capacity.
What's in the kit
- (1) HD adjustable front track bar made from 1.5 inch O.D. solid chromoly steel, with an adjustable, rebuildable anti-wobble joint at the frame and a custom 1 inch shank FK rod end at the axle
- (2) sport tuned multi-rate coil springs
- (4) heavy duty adjustable 4 link front control arms made from 2 inch solid alloy steel with heavy duty forks
- (2) fabricated 4 link brackets with skids, laser cut from 1/4 inch steel
- (2) fabricated lift blocks

Shocks are the choice you make under Pick your package. Rock Krawler lists four shocks as part of the system when they are configured.

Pick your package
Every Adventure X kit has the same 4 link, coils and hardware. The Package option decides what shocks come with it.
- Base System: Coils, 4 link arms and brackets, track bar, lift blocks and U-bolts. No shocks come in the box.
- Bilstein 5100 Shocks: Bilstein 5100 shocks for all four corners. Rock Krawler calls them a great pairing with its multi-rate coil springs, and they are maintenance free.
- 2.625 RR Shocks: Four RRD 2.625 inch remote reservoir shocks built by Rock Krawler. The body and reservoir are fluted, military-grade hard anodized aluminum, the shaft is 1 inch 17-4 PH stainless, and the shock is serviceable, rebuildable and revalveable.
- Fast CD Adjusters: The same RRD 2.625 inch remote reservoir shocks with Fast CD adjusters and 3.25 inch reservoirs. The adjuster lets you change compression damping in seconds, up to 30 percent more with infinite settings, so you can tune for empty, loaded or towing.
Pick the Configuration that matches your truck: Diesel or Gas, and Rear Air Ride if the factory air ride is on it. The air ride versions add air bag risers so the system keeps working.
Fitment and what else you'll need
Fits the 2013-present Ram 3500 HD 4x4, diesel or gas, with or without factory rear air ride (choose your Configuration). Rock Krawler lists 37 x 13.5 inch tires for this kit and does not list any additional required parts on the product page.
Rock Krawler lists a 3 to 4 week lead time on 2.625 inch RRD shocks and coilovers, counted in business days from the order date.
Rock Krawler lists lifetime warranty coverage on this system. Its warranty page covers hard parts such as control arms, track bars and mounting brackets for life, joint housings for 10 years and coil springs for 5 years against fracture. Shocks, joints and other wear items carry shorter terms, and the full terms are on Rock Krawler's warranty page.
