NICE!!...I tow two 850lbs ATV's plus the trailer and I leave it on setting 1 and it handles nicely. I haven't loaded up the bed yet so this was good information.
I got some Mcgard black lug nuts. Such a better quality metal from the stock ones. I actually had three of the stock lugs nuts strip out on me with the recommended torque.
I love the way they ride on and off road. I tow two ATV's on some off road trails and I have no issues at all. I keep the rear shock setting on number 1 and have not had any issues. I don't have any experience with the Carli shocks.
I've had mine on for almost two years now and I love it. My only suggestion is if you live in an area that uses salt on the roads is put a good coat of paint on it first. Mine is starting to show some rust already
I have a rebel and measured the pockets of the wheels before I bought my spacers. I am running .75" in the front and did not have to cut my studs. If you don't have a rebel, I am not sure what that pocket depth is.
If you go the shock route for leveling weather it be Bilstein's or Falcons, it should not dramatically change the geometry. If you lift with a puck, then you may have to change your UCA's.
I also went with 285/75/18 tires. I have the Falcon shocks set to level with an additional 1/2 wulf spacer in the front. No rubbing at all. I went with .75" spacers in the front and 1>00" spacers in the rear.
Honestly, it will be nothing like stock....it will be better. You will have more lateral stability and a nice firm but not jarring ride. I had bilstiens before these on my F-150 and these have a much better ride IMO.
The Falcons will leave you with a .5" rake set on level. I did not want that so I installed a .5" Wulf spacer on top of my from Falcon shocks. I left the rear alone.
I am running 285/75/18 with my falcon shocks and the rear setting at 1. I am also running .75" spacers in the front and 1.00" spacers in the rear. This made the tires flush with the rebel flares.
I replaced my stock Duratracs with 285/75/18 Duratracs. The first 3,000 miles were great but them I started to get some chopping on the front tires. Very disappointing.
