Carli 2.5" Leveling Starter Suspension System 08-10 Ford 6.4L Powerstroke
Sure, you could add a simple spacer on top of your coils to level your 2008-2010 Ford SuperDuty, but wouldn't you rather actually improve the ride quality while also getting that level stance you're after? If so, check out this Carli Suspension 2.5" Starter Leveling Kit for your 2008-2010 Ford Powerstroke.
UNMATCHED BUILD QUALITY
The Super Duty Starter system is designed for people who want a small suspension lift without the stereotypical ride-quality degradation associated with mass-produced "lift and leveling kits". The Carli Signature Series shocks' build quality is unmatched for their price point and offers a nice boost in ride quality.
The truck will sit 2.5" higher in the front and have more wheel travel thanks to the taller, lighter-rate coil springs. Stainless Brake Lines and an Adjustable Track Bar round off the front-end geometry correction while Caster Shims improve the stock handling. The rear is outfitted with a Progressive Add-a-Pack lifting it 2" on F-250's and 1/2" on F-350's and matching rear shocks help keep the truck planted over rough terrain while maintaining factory towing and payload capacity. The 2.5" systems are designed to work with trucks equipped with the 2" rear block. Super Duties equipped with a 3-5/8" tall block from the factory will require the factory 2" tall Block to achieve a leveled stance with the Add-a-Pack. Part Number: 7C3Z-5598-L and 7C3Z-5598-K.
FORD LEVELING STARTER SYSTEM
This system is considered entry-level; however, it's fully upgradeable and only requires an upgrade to one of Carli's many signature-tuned shock packages to be converted to one of the higher-end systems. This system was designed with the Progressive Add-a-Pack and should not be run with the Full Progressive Leaf Springs.
WHEEL AND TIRE FITMENT
- On their 2.5" Ford Systems, Carli recommends 17"-18" wheels, no more than 9" wide with 5.5" of backspacing with Carli Fabricated Radius Arms or 5" Backspace with factory arms; 5" will require a bit more trimming. Tires, 37x12.5" will fit with some trimming; 35" will likely fit without trimming. The more rubber, the better the small bump compliance will be at proper inflation pressures. The ride will firm up as you go larger in wheel diameter.
OPTIONAL UPGRADES:
LEAF SPRING SHACKLE
Factory rear shackles are strong but can make the ride stiff and bouncy. Carli’s shackles are made from thick steel and have serviceable bushings that let the rear suspension move smoothly, reduce axle wrap and wheel hop. Made from strong 1/4" steel, greasable and rebuildable for long life, provides a far better ride than the factory shackle, and fits both factory and Carli springs
LONG TRAVEL AIRBAGS
Long Travel Airbags let you carry heavy loads or tow without losing the smooth ride. They support the rear suspension, reduce sag under weight, and keep the ride comfortable while maintaining proper suspension travel for off-road or daily driving.
CARRIER BEARING DROP
The Carrier Bearing Drop lowers the driveshaft carrier to prevent vibration and keep your rear suspension running smoothly on lifted trucks. Carrier Bearing Drop lowers the carrier on 2-piece driveshafts to prevent take-off shudder and driveline vibration, and includes stackable 3/8" shims to accommodate 1"-4" of rear lift.
LOW MOUNT STEERING STABILIZER
- Minimize steering wheel feedback and maximize control
- Adjustable nitrogen pressure and custom tuned valves for larger tires
- Includes differential guard and clamp
- Optimized for Carli 2.5″ systems
IMPORTANT NOTES:
-
WHEELS: Carli Recommends a 17"-18" Wheel, no more than 9" wide with 5"-5.5" of Backspacing on Leveling Systems
- TIRES: 35", E-Rated Tire Fitment is Recommended. Recommended unloaded Tire Pressure 45F/40R.
- RECOMMENDED CONFIGURATION: Carli Leveling Systems are Designed and Tested on Vehicles with 17"-18" Wheels with 35", E-Rated Tires. Stock wheels and tires or running a larger wheel diameter will result in a stiffer ride.
- ADD-A-PACKS SuperDuties equipped with a factory 3-5/8" Block will require the 2" Factory Block [7C3Z-5598-L, 7C3Z-5598-K] to achieve a level stance.
