    Thank you!

    And oh man it drives completely different now.

    The Carli torsion sway bar makes a massive difference in handling when coupled with these Kings.

    I do need the Kings bled down just a touch as they are a bit on the stiff side, but either way this thing is going to be a beast off road. Video of that to come soon.

    It needs to get the stabilizer installed and a couple of other tweaks on Tuesday, and then she will be ready to go full send on the dirt!
    Enjoy!

    EDIT: apparently none of the pictures actually saved, so lets try this again.

    I don’t mind diesel clatter.

    I used to drive my 4th gen on a 12V tune, but when the truck runs like trash I have an issue with it.

    Also I appreciate the compliment!

    Man, it has been MONTHS since I've posted on this forum. As you all know, the last big upgrade was the full Carli set up I had installed. To date, I'm sitting just shy of 9000 miles on the truck, and that's about 3000 miles (maybe? idk) on this Carli set up. So let's talk about where things are at today.

    After only about 3.5-4 weeks of having the suspension installed, I completely tore the lower shock mount off the axle on the passenger side. To date, I'm still not really sure what happened as it was a pretty clean break. Not sure if this was a OE defect, or maybe I caught a piece of shale...either way, bad news bears. But I was able to run the truck the 12 miles off the trail, took it to dinner, drove it home, and to the shop the next day....Carli springs are no slouch, let me tell you.

    EBC4D313-0604-4541-8748-DAE7A5F432B4.jpg

    So I had the OE mount ground down, rewelded, and then both sides gusseted. Everything has been good to go! However, I will probably truss the axles in the near future and opt for Carli fabricated radius arms just to avoid any further complications. (The factory radius arms use a vulcanized bushing that severely limits travel and creates a very stiff front end that is not conducive to a mid-travel suspension).

    The Nitto Ridge Grapplers have been great, but they balance like ****. The wheels were balanced at day of install, retorqued 100 miles later & rotated, balanced again when the shock broke. And are about to be balanced AGAIN on Wednesday. Probably going to opt for some Centramatics because this frequency of balancing is dumb.

    Oh, and I blew the front upper shock bushings too. That was a fun replacement job; ratchet straps were involved...big thanks to Carli for sending me out replacements ASAP since King's facility is currently closed.

    Anyways. Where are we at today? The truck has been great, sure things have broken, but I beat the hell out of this thing...just ask my paint. I've also got a few other things I will be going over at some point too that should excite some of you. All things considered, these 2019+ trucks are amazing. Worlds apart from my 2015 and I look forward to driving this thing until the wheels fall off. Stay tuned for more content soon. Also, lease me alone for being gone for 5 months LOL, I've been busy.

    So had the rotate and balance done today, and apparently there was a radio update or something of the sort that was installed.

    Looks like enough people were unhappy with the font of the digital speedometer in the upper center part of the display, so that has been changed...and I'm not a fan.

    It went from the nice bold numbers to a skinny, Arial-esque font.

    Anyways, not sure what else was updated but for those of you with the 12" screen, just know there is an update out there.

    Anyways, just happy to have my truck not shake on the highway anymore.

    More stuff to come soon.

    EDIT: So I'm stupid. I guess when the radio flash was done, the radio theme reverted to the default one...not the Rebel theme I had it on. Jesus I've been working too much *face desk*

    What’s up everyone!

    Been off the grid for a few days, took a much needed vacation!

    These were uploaded from mobile so the quality probably isn’t the best, will reupload once I get them onto the laptop and edited.

    Who said big trucks can’t do Jeep things LOL

    As promised. Post-edit;

    I've got a few more truck pictures to put up in due time.

    These aren't full size as full size is 6000x4000 LOL, so forgive the minor loss in quality.
