You convince me to go straight from stock tires to 37‘s and not being worried about modifying anything else. I only had 35s on my last three trucks so excited to have the ability to get my pumpkins further from the ground before I head to Moab.
This is what I am referring to. This is not a loss to factory, but a gain. This is the initial reason I looked to Carli.
Now ya got me. I will inquire and come back with an answer!I went back and looked at carli.. maybe I missed something but their site says lowered payload to 2000lbs for the rear springs. Does this mean the stock 2500 non power wagon rear springs are over 2000lbs for payload rating?

Oh yeah and as far as Carli, I think still in R&D.
But if I can only put 1600lbs in the bed now, this setup would get me to 2000 if I understand you correctly!?
Yes I am set on Load E for sure. I like to be ready for the what if’s in life. You never know if and when you will need to tow or haul something heavy. Air bags is on my wish list too.
That is what I understand too, but I emailed them to validate. There is a blurb on their website, showing pictures, weight and scale. I think we are correct -- hence my move to Carli vs Thuren. (I am going with a Thuren King steering damper though).
Single or dual king damper? If I remeber right carli offers a a dual
The power wagons have one stock. They help keep the steering wheel from making erratic movements when you hit a pothole or something else at speed. Most people upgrade to a stiffer one when doing off road at the stock one usually isnt meant for harsh off roading.
Here ya go:It’s actually a Thuren King. Carli uses its own IFP shock. My installer said all the cool kids use these Thurens.

Better the Fox? Thuren is priced higher by ~$100
It's a king shock. So definitely. That said, the front and rear shocks are Fox 2.0, but have Carli's valve tuning (not factory). The owner of Carli is quite "full of himself" but he certainly knows his stuff. Check him out on Youtube as he geeks out on the engineering. I didn't go with Carli damper, as it is subpar to the Thuren with the King shock. I will be dropping the truck off this Thursday (as long as all parts are in) and pick it up on Friday. (fingers crossed).
Man if a shops doing it. You should crawl under it and check it all. They don’t tq stuff typically. Unless you know the shop really good. I wish if we payed somebody to do something they’d do it right
Interstingly enough, I asked Thuren who I should use, come to find out the guy also does Carli. That got me doing research
Ain't that the truth. When I had the ONLY shop in town install my lift kit for $800 labor as the dealer wanted $1183 in labor, they didnt run down and tighten the front upper swaybar endlinks bolts. Like wtf. How do you miss that? Anyways, they did a retorque at 500 miles for free. I'm thinking when I have the extra cash I'll swing by moody afb and use the auto craft center to put it on a lift and check everything again.
