gents, sorry about not getting any replies out there.
I did reach out to Carli several times. I couldn't ever get them to tell me if the spring they provided was correct. you can see in the picture it is the 700 spring. that seems more diesel to me but I couldn't get them to tell me any answer on that. there best answer was to drop my tire pressure in the front to 35 and the rear to 30. well doing that would have made my bilstiens feel like they were clouds.
it really was allot back and forth with Carli over email and phone but haven't gotten any improvement.
it feels like it is up on its tippy toes on the from end. like its too lifted for what it should be. I complained about the front being more than 1 1/2" higher than the rear. I don't like that look at all. the back end feel significantly better than the front. when I pull to a stop the vehicle kind of rocks back and forth as the weight transfers front to rear and back to the front.
If I go over any speed bump I better take it very vey slow or it sounds like thngs are going fall off the truck. the truck just isn't compliant as it travel over broken roads.
going with Carli everything is supposed to good right out of the boxes. the preload gave me too much front lift and I think the spring was was too heavy rated. should have probably have been a 500 not a 700. that was the first question I asked and never got an answer.
I live in Fallbrook CA and would actually love anyone who know how these things are suppose to feel can see if I am all full of Shhh or what. it's ruined the ride I had before I put the Carli kings on my truck.i
I'm not far from moving towards sometime taking all of the latest carli/king stuff on my truck and put it on there's. my truck rode much much better before I wasted all of this money on this system. which I still think is the wrong system. I see other forum members say they were happy with the 500 lb spring. if that is the case then why did I get the 700 spring.
I didn't think Carli was offering the 700lbs springs Not even in the diesel application. I'll put 700lbs on a heavy 1500 that means you'll have a heavy bumper, winch, roof rack, RTT etc etc etc. I wanted to put 600lbs in mine but 550 will do better in my case. They put 600lbs in the 5th gen application. Also, check my build thread. I have pictures with what you need to do to turn those adjusters. For instance check Post #143 here
Ahhh I just saw it. Can’t find a pic of it installed though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ProI don't think there are any yet. They don't even list rams on the barricade website. Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk

4 full turns should be about 1" up or down. so at the most you'll be able to go down almost 1" from where you are if you turn them counter clockiwse. definetely you have too heavy springs in there for your application. King OE comes with 500lbs, you have 13" long 700lbs, Mine came with 14" long, 500lbs springs.
Ask Carli to see if they'll exchange springs, or simply call King and buy 14/500lbs springs. Not CJC, contact Carli. I think somebody at CJC was playing with those coilovers before you ?
Have fun.
Hope it helps.
