Actually, from what I have gathered in my years of research, the Thuren kits are quite a bit cheaper for pretty much the same components.

Payload or serious flex. I take the flex. Depends really on how you use your rig. It’s great there is options. For me. Thuren hands down. No power wagon here so imagine it on a power wagon lol.

But I read that Carli will increase your payload over stock PW setup. I imagine the air bags you have make the difference for you in payload.

yep, i think they do from what I have read. The bags work for anything that I have to tow.

i dont need a bunch of payload for my use. Otherwise I would have bought a normal 2500/3500 and added offroad goodies. Perfect truck for me would be a half ton truck with one ton running gear... thats just about what a power wagon is.

Now payload police will say. It don’t matter what Carli says it’s what the sticker on truck says. So no the payload is not increased :anitoof: Couldn’t resist lol

Damn payload police! Always got their boot on my neck!!!

You really want payload, you get the AEV kit. Uses stock, non PW springs.

Now the spacer lift Nazis are going to get all up in my grill!!!

I get that. I also get that we live in a litigious society where there are sue happy assclowns everywhere and insurance companies weaseling out of anything they can.

I have zero regrets on getting the Carli Commuter. I did add a Thuren steering dampener to complete the kit. Payload police be damned, I like that I don't have a Cali squat under decent load. :)
