Carli SPEC 3.5" Leveling Backcountry 2.0 Suspension System 20-22 Ford 6.7L Powerstroke

When most people think about a "leveling kit," they think about a spacer that goes between the front coils and coil buckets to effectively raise the front of the truck several inches. While this type of product does "level" the truck for fitment of larger tires, it does absolutely nothing to improve upon the handling and overall suspension performance of the vehicle. In fact, this type of system will typically degrade these factors, as the existing shocks are over extended, the caster is not accounted for, and the axle is offset because the factory track bar is still in place. If you want to level your truck the right way, then this is the system for you!The Backcountry 2.0 Suspension System from Carli is about leveling your truck the RIGHT way. It's designed for people seeking light to medium off-roading while still maintaining good on-road driving. Utilizing Carli SPEC 2.0″ diameter shocks tuned for slow to mid speed off road use as well as all-around comfort and ride quality while driving in town, on the highway, towing, or hauling. Carli SPEC 2.0 boasts an aluminum body, hardened steel shaft, and full rebuild-ability. The shocks contain premium 5WT oil to balance lubricity, consistent damping and the widest available range in temperature variation. Your truck will sit 3.5” higher in the front and have more wheel travel thanks to the taller, lighter rate coil springs. To accommodate the additional travel, the kit contains improved brake lines, an adjustable track bar, and caster adjusters to improve on the stock handling.FRONT SWAY BAR OPTIONSThe front sway bar geometry will need to be addressed with your choice of the following options(after selecting an option, you can view an image of it by clicking up through the images above) Sway Bar Drop Brackets Economical choice Maintains the factory Sway Bar End Links Extended Sway Bar Links A much more robust option Only option compatible with a snow plow bracket Torsion Sway Bar w/ Links Optimized for use with Backcountry System Huge ride quality upgrade Not for snow-plows, in-bed campers, or constant heavy loads REAR LEAF SPRING OPTIONSThis system is designed to be paired with a rear leaf spring upgrade to achieve the proper stance.(after selecting an option, you can view an image of it by clicking up through the images above) Add-a-Pack Replaces the stiff overload leaf with a pack of 6 progressive leafs for a smoother ride Maintains original load carrying capacity Rear will be 0.5" to 1.0" higher than front when paired with the 3.5″ front suspension system Full Progressive Leaf Spring Kit Replaces stock 5 leaf design with a 12 leaf progressive design for a smoother ride Only a slight reduction from a standard 3/4-ton load capacity Rear will be 0.5" higher than front when paired with the 3.5″ front suspension system HD Full Progressive Leaf Spring Kit For the customer that constantly has a +1,000lb load in their bed Rear will be 1.0" higher than front when paired with the 3.5″ front suspension system With an empty bed, these will lift the rear more than stated and ride very rigid OPTIONAL UPGRADE: Upgraded Leaf Spring Shackles Larger rubber bushings for a far better ride Free-floating bushing instead of rigid Greasable and Rebuildable IMPORTANT NOTES: Wheels: Carli recommends a 17"-18" wheel, no more than 9" wide with 5" - 5.5" of backspacing Tires: 35", E-rated tire is recommended.
