Best place to fish is off a tailgate!! However, I’m jealous of where you’re at. I spent a few months training at FLETC over in Charleston. Almost daily, if weather was good, I’d head down to Sullivans Island/Isle of Palms and fish the inlets. Took a guide out of Shems Creek and caught some...

I’m blessed to have a wife that enjoys a lot of the things I enjoy. From mountain biking Palo Duro Canyon, to hiking the long route up Pikes Peak, to snow shoeing up Exit glacier in Alaska, she’s been 100% down for it all.

One Up Offroad offers radius arm drop brackets. Both work with stock shims and will give you 5 degrees castor on a leveled truck. One of the offerings allows you to adjust the axle position to center the wheel to the fender for clearance...

Not a fly fishing trip but I highly recommend Seward Alaska. My wife and I spent several days of our honeymoon there. What a fantastic place!

Very interesting. My 7.3 with 37’s sometimes feels so torquey off the line that I think to myself “this truck really doesn’t need first gear when I’m not towing”. And like Mas13pharmd said, the tires will break loose on pavement with enough skinny pedal pressure.

I carry the factory stabilizer under the back seat now just in case

The other option to look at is One Up Offeoad. They offer Eibach springs in multiple different weight ratings that can be paired with their coil levelers do a really custom tuned ride. I’m sure you could also use the OUO coil levelers with the Carli gas coils for more height

They feel softer than the original tremor springs. Where I immediately noticed the difference was on uneven expansion joints. Stock front and rear felt very harsh/sharp and that has been mitigated. To be clear, it still feels stiffer and than my old stock F150 fx4.

Mine are the old Fox line. Yes, it has diesel shocks. The guys at Texas Motorworx had it in stock and I trusted their judgment with their history in desert race world. When it’s time to upgrade I’ll likely go with the fox performance elite series custom tuned from Accutune.

Yes! I have the diesel commuter kit on my gas truck. Shocks and all with deaver leafs and Firestone airbags. My front end came up 2 5/8” and rear 0.5”. It rides great! It is a little out of sync front to rear due to the commuter shocks on the rear with the deavers. Carli does not...

Any updated pics with the new wheels and tires?

Bought a pile of implements and a gently used Kubota L3800 for a great price so I’m servicing everything before it heads out to the ranch.

I can’t speak for Icon coils but the Carli diesel leveling coils brought my 7.3 Tremor up 2 5/8”. Betting the icon will be very similar
