Carli Pathfinder suspension

[Terryw123]

Hopefully I'm not too late to the party to ask some questions.

I am trying to decide on what kit to get. I was looking at the Pathfinder kit plus torsion sway bar, upper and lower stabilizers. and.... I WAS also considering the progressive leaf springs

A month ago I unfortunately purchased and had installed an Air Lift 7500XL air bags and have now been told that they are not compatible with the Carli Progressive leaf springs.

So if I have to keep my F250 Tremor leaf springs, as I don't want to lose the $ I paid for the air bags, do I need to go with the Commuter kit instead?

I like the idea of the 2.5 shocks, even though I don't off-road but we have very rough and bumpy country roads here and I also tow about 25% of the time (up to 11,000 Lbs). Was hoping to get the Pathfinder kit but if they aren't meant to go with stock Tremor leaf springs what should I do?

Some people are saying just to buy Fox 2.5 shocks separately. Some said Bilstein 5100s. Some said Pathfinder is fine with stock leafs but I read on these forums that they are not tuned for stock springs.

Would love some help in sorting out my best case set up given that I've already committed to the Air Lift air bags. Thank you in advance!!!!

I ran Pintops with stock leafs and it was a huge improvement over my stock and commuter shocks.
