Hey guys,

I currently have a Carli Fox commuter kit with 1000HD bags. It tows decently, but I can tell the ride is too soft and needs to be changed. Before we explore options, I'd like to state a few things.

1) This truck was built without a trailer in mind. I never envisioned owning a trailer, but it just happened. I built this truck to play in the dirt, but priorities have changed. I bought an Alliance 251bh travel trailer; the tongue weight and trailer weight are within the specs of my truck.
2) My ultimate plan is to buy a 2500 or 3500 diesel. I'm currently upside down and need to wait to find a good deal or pay some more off my current truck.


I'm looking at two options and wanted your insight or advice.

1) Get a Carli performance King shocks with timber grove helper bags

2) I have a new set of rebel shock/struts and install HD rear coils and timber Grover helper bags.

Option 1 costs far more but should ride pretty decent off-road and with a trailer. Option two is far cheaper, but will it work better than my current setup? I'm so torn about what to do! I don't mind spending money, but I also like to spend it wisely!
