Carli Track Bar

Anyone know if the Carli track bar is usable on lifts less than 2.5in?

Since its adjustable, from what I understand it barely works on 2.5" as it was meant for the 4.5". I also heard they were going to have a new part number for the 2.5" - not sure if this ever happened. But also locks you into a single height (should you ever want to change)

I would go with a Lewis Built or PMF adjustable - same price or less, plus its adjustable. Personally I chose Lewis built - works from stock to 4.5"

Thank you, just called carli. Their track bar works w/ the 2.5in lift in the shortest setting so will not correctly align the front with anything less than 2.5.

I have a Lewis on order, but they seem to be MIA (not answering calls/emails) so not sure when that will show up, very frustrating.

Carli for gasser

Just visited with Dan @ Carli and he said they have not yet started revising the spring rates for 6.2, or shock valving.

They are starting on producing the torsion away bar for the front end, unfortunately also for diesel only. But they do have plans to do a couple of setups for the gas engine trucks, but not over 2.5" lift because less power to move really big tires (37" to 40").

So for now, gassers gonna hafta find another way.
