About this part
Carrier Bearing Drop Shims, fitment-checked
Shims that drop the driveshaft carrier bearing on 4WD Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks built 2003-2010, and Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks built 2011-2016 — Rough Country 1161. Setting the bearing lower keeps the rear shaft closer to its factory working angle after a lift. Plan on 2-3 hours.
Fitment runs across Dodge Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD trucks from 2003-2010, including Power Wagon, TRX, and TRX4 trims, then continues on Ram 2500 and 3500 4WD from 2011-2016 in trims from Tradesman up through Laramie Longhorn. Raising the truck changes where the two-piece driveshaft's center support sits relative to the transmission output; these shims move that support down to compensate, which is the cheapest path back to a quiet driveline. Rough Country lists 2-3 hours. Check the fitment section for the full submodel list before ordering.
