These will not work with stock suspension, but we will offer black decal packages!

We've been really impressed with it so far!

Looking forward to a video review from you guys

Kings get softer as they wear in. They need a few thousand miles to reach their prime.

@@Rhinopkc that’s what I was told. They’ve got about two thousand miles on them now. I’m thinking of checking the nitrogen charge and maybe let a little out. I understand they come charged from Carli at 265 psi and can be let down to 190. So I may drop them to the low 200s and see if they’re any better.

Remembering that nitrogen charge is more related to preventing cavitation than anything else. Shoot us an email and we’re happy to suggest areas you might be able to improve ride. Tire pressure is a huge one. With a properly set up truck with a pintop system, full packs, and tires at the right pressure, the truck should be very smooth. Shock break in is a real thing too.

@@CJCOffRoad I’m running 295/65/20s and I’ve lowered the pressure to 55 psi on all four tires. I’m not running the Deaver rear leafs because my airbags need the rear block. Thinking of adding the add a pack but not sure if the 2” block will be tall enough to work with the airbags.

@@secretsquirrel572 you should get the daystar cradles for the airbags so you’re not limited on down travel in the rear. Then you can run the add a pack or full deavers with no concerns.

We have decal kits coming for these! They’ll be offered in a few different colors including a subtle black out style.

No it’s a different manufacturer for both.

Not a tuned set specific to air trucks. We have off the shelf Fox and Bilstein shocks that will fit, but the Carli tuned sets are only available in full set of 4.

Coming this year!

The goal is to be as smooth as possible! What that means depends on the system. For example, the Commuter is tuned to be as smooth as possible on the street, while the Backcountry is tuned to offer the best ride on road as well as light or low speed off road driving.

For now Carli will stick with King for their 2.5" and 3" diameter shock packages.

To the untrained eye yes, but if you ride in one you'll realize it feels nothing like the standard 2.0 shock!

That was the whole goal with this project. Since Fox unfortunately couldn't make product in a timely and reliable manner, they're now taking control of production.

Is everything made by King and Carli built in the US? Are all parts sourced from the US?

@@secretsquirrel572 100% of everything they do is here in the US.

These shocks are actually noticeably more sensitive around town, but from the sound of it your issue isn’t shock based. It sounds like it’s related to tire pressure, tire size, or other suspension setup. Do you still have the stock rear leaf packs?

Stock rear leafs and 20” wheels?

37” Falkens 45 psi front 40 rear. Carli Backcountry 2.5” Carli add-a-packs rear.

What do you mean by “more sensitive?” Better small bump compliance or worse small bump compliance in comparison to the fox shocks?

Their King shocks use a stainless shaft, but all their existing Fox shocks (and any other Fox shock for that matter) uses chrome plated steel shafts. Stainless shafts would significantly raise the price, which isn’t ideal when the 2” diameter shock offerings for the Commuter and Backcountry are supposed to be more budget friendly. Anything 2.5” and larger diameter King shock based is stainless.

Couldn’t have said it better ourselves!

@@JustDiesels Thanks for the explanation. Trying to research a kit myself.

These are IFP Nitrogen charged shocks.

@@CJCOffRoad nice!

Do you mind if we ask where you ordered from? We have tons of these in stock and on the shelf! Our worst back order is only 2 months for the Ram systems that haven't been released yet.

@CJC Off Road I ordered it from Diesel power products out of spokehan Washington They just shipped everything, but my shocks I should receive a pallet on May 3rd via FedEx

I have a 2006 Dodge 3500 mega cab If you have the shocks, let me know how much ,& I will just order from CJC OFF ROAD thanks

Stainless just doesn't make sense on a 2" shock as they're supposed to be more cost friendly, which is why these and none of the outgoing Fox packages had them. Carli does offer stainless shafts standard on all their 2.5" and 3" King shock packages however!

@@CJCOffRoad I see thanks for the information. Gotta save up for the kings 😅

King, Fox, Bilstein, etc. all come with Chrome plated shafts in their 2.0” shocks. No one makes stainless for an entry level shock - massively cost prohibitive. Step up to 2.5” reservoir shocks and you have the option to pay for stainless upgrade with a couple manufacturers but all manufacturers still spec with chrome plated.
