Carli level kit question

[Donnie Straps]

Im about to order a Carli level kit for 2500 and I noticed they suggest getting eccentric bolts to readjust castor. Just wondering if anyone has used the kit and if they found they needed to add the bolts?

Is the Carli kit not a good o e and thats why no one has an opinion? I didnt want to do juat a spacer kit, thought this was a better choice?

I'm not sure why you need eccentric bolts. I have a 2" thuren level on mine. All that was needed was to re align to their Spec.

The Carli kit says its 2.75 lift so maybe the extra 3/4" is why? I dont know. My front end is down 2 3/4 lower than the rear so I didnt want ti do just a 2" but that may be a better choice so it wont possibly bow the spring.

Might look at the Thuren Suspension web site also. You can also Email Don and get some information your looking for. Also check with CJC Off road.

I have used the Carli and the Thuren kits and never had to do this.

I am pretty good friends with the guys at both places. Call up Carli and ask and they'll be glad to answer your question.

Both are amazing kits!
Thuren's is a bit softer ride IMO.

Thanks, I dis email Thuren today and I will call Carli tomorrow. I was all set to order the radius arm drop bracket it it does add $550 to the kit. I dont mind spending the money if it helps my front end live longer but at the same time, I dont want to soend it if I dont have to. The couple of people that I have talked to with same kit did get the drop brackets so they couldnt say if springs bowed or not.
