Looking to replace my rear leafs with either the Carli or PMF Deavers but was looking for any insight from those who are running either. I have the 4.5” Carli Commuter Fox shocks and I know you’re supposedly to match components from mfgs. That said, is there a noticeable difference in either leafs?

I have the Carli deavers and they made a world of difference. Don't have the Carli shocks but wish I did. I would do Carli if you already have their shocks. Think you'll leave a lot on the table if you don't.

I have the Carli Pintop with the full leafs and like above.. since you already have their shocks I would get their leafs. Will make a big difference either way

Went ahead and ordered the Carli 4.5” full leafs. Should be here in about a week. After I installed the 4.5” Carli Commuter kit in the front, the roughest part of the whole ride is from the rear. I previously had the 2.5” Commuter kit but didn’t have the rear Deavers. Excited about how the truck rides.

Just as an FYI --- Carli does use different valving for their rear shocks if they are going to used with their Deavers... If memory serves, the major difference is in their rebound valving.
