Carli Pathfinder VS Pintop

[BLACKCHERRY]

Not to complicate things for you, but I run the setup below, almost all the time. I went with Carli springs, etc but went with Alcan Springs in the rear and Radflo 2.5 shocks all around. What I like about the rear springs and the Radflo shocks is they are custom built and tuned for your vehicles specific weight. For my rear we built springs around a 5400 lb load, this is basically the weight on the rear axles when the camper is loaded. For the shocks both front and rear were valved for my specific axle weights. It rides like a dream to be honest and handles great on the highway. The closest full Carli kit to this would be their pi top with whatever rear spring rating they have that equates to a 5400 lb rear axle weight.

Sounds like an awesome build (and looks amazing), but i want to address the "custom tuned" part. We hang our hat on this and there are levels to these claims. Radflow are good shocks, Alcan are good springs. Throwing all this together nets you a ton of high-end parts and a shock tuner can make an educated guess as to what would work for this setup, but until you get in the truck and drive it, you don't know how well it works.

Our custom tuning means we take our expertise from 20 years of tuning these trucks specifically and make an educated guess to start the process, then often drive and revalve 20+ times to get to the end result that is actually optimized to the truck's configuration which turns out a significantly different result.

Sounds like you're happy with it, so they must've done some proper estimating, but the shock tuner in me wants to run your truck through my test loop!
