I wonder what the difference is between the Carli versions and the ones straight from Deaver. Just $200 for the Carli name? lol.

Carli emailed me back the next day and Deaver emailed me within hours and 5-6 times today back and forth.
I'm doing a 2 inch BDS lift with Fox shocks, 285x75/r18 tires (on the stock wheels), Cooper Discoverer AT/3's, and the Deavers. $2790 including shipping and Tax. I'll be self installing at a friends garage. (Not the tires).
If the ride on this truck is not good then I guess it never will be lol

True. However I did order the softest springs that Ford offers for the F250 so those should be good. After dropping $3k I really don't see me spending another $1k on some kind of coilovers. I'v not dug into a progressive spring for the front but you never know.

I ordered the complete spring. I did ask how much capacity would be altered. They said it would be a "lite" 3/4 ton. So if you split the capacity of a half ton and a three-quarter ton I would say that would be a safe number.

Did your springs come in? Curious as to how ordering and install went, also how much different is the ride?

I actually called to check progress lest week. They said that the springs had been put into production 3 days prior to my call and they would probably be 4 weeks out. So a little longer than their original estimate. They did seem professional and courteous so I'm not really worried about it. Directionally just giving me more time with the stock leaf springs so I'll have a better base for comparison.
I will definitely update the thread when they come in and I get them installed.
