Lift Suggestions

Decker0909 · Aug 10, 2014

I just purchased a 2015 F 250 Platinum I am looking for about a 3.5 to 4 in lift for it.. I currently have a 4 in Ready Lift on my 2011 its ok but i know there is better .. So how about some suggestions and does anyone have anything for sale that might work for me..

Carli Pintop 2.5 with full leaf upgrade

However, the Icon with OUO looks pretty nice as well.

I'm interested as well, but can ya'll be a little more clear on what should be icon and what should be ouo. Pretty much all Pavement. Still trying to figure all this lift stuff out and looking for a ride just as good as stock or better.

A Standard Icon 4.5" Stage 1 Kit will blow away the Ready Lift stuff your used to. You don't have to spend a ton of money to get a great riding lift kit.

I really like my 3.5" kit from PMF... The fox shocks I just got are the carli ones and ride awesome. But any of these options are gonna be much better than that ready lift.

There's a guy named cjank or somethin on here with almost the same kit I have for sale gently used I think.

Daystar...

For those with 4" blocks and 2.5" in front....did you have to extend the carrier bearing bracket any?

Lot of really good suggestions in here. My favorites are Skyjacker, Bilstein, and Daystar.

Sarcasm set aside, TripleE44's setup is the way I would go. ICON, Precision Metal Fab, and Fox combo.

I'd either do a icon kit matched with icon shocks or go with a Carli kit with Carli shocks. I wouldn't want to mix and match shocks and springs with different companies.

^ this made me lol.

My hopes and dreams are for a Carli Pintop or their new Dominator kit because my truck is no road princess

Icon combined with ouo here as well, pmf is another great option. Trevor is a stand up guy. And know a guy running a full Carli kit and it rides fantastic as well.

3 great choices and you can't go wrong either way

But here's the real secrete

PRO COMP for the win

My truck is stock as far as suspension goes. I was talking to a reputable shop(Chicagoland area) today. He was telling me that icon & Carli 2.5" kits tend to drive rough. Lots of bump steering.

I found this to be crazy as all hell due to the endless hours of research & all the positive feedback out there about icon & carli.

I probably shouldn't even ask but has anyone had any issues with icon or carli 2.5 " kits???

I'm getting ready to purchase a icon & OUO combo so I'm blown away to hear this from this guy.
