Final lift considerations

[NevaEnough]

Gentleman,

I own a 2014 f250 6.7l CCSB 4x4. After a few weeks of research this is what I've come up with. I want a smoother ride and enough lift to eventually add wheels and tires. I was originally going to go with the Carli commuter 2.0. But, opted for this instead:

Carli 2.5" coils
Carli 2.0 commuter Fox IFP shocks
PMF 4.5" Ford lift Blocks with a flat taper
PMF Ford U-bolts
PMF Adjustable trac bar

For the Ubolts and axles I'm not sure what diameter I need. I figure a 4.5" block will give me a slight rake. I don't do much towing but, I'd like to have the option. The Fox commuter shock package runs about $640. I was hoping to spend a little less on these. Anyone know where I could get this package a little less expensive or have a better alternative?

What else do I need? (Alignment cams, break line tabs maybe?) before I order I want to make sure it's complete. Any opinions or advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

Carli has a set pricing so the 640 is what they will run. When compared to the standard fox 2.0 the upgrade to the carli valved shocks is not much more. Buying through a vendor can save you the headache and get you great customer service.

You will need alignment cams but any alignment shop can do those when they allign your truck.
That is all you will need for a 2.5" kit.

Thanks SmokinStroker! I'll take a look for some vendors that the FOX 2.0. I really appreciate it man.

Let us know if we can help.
Should be a review of the carli commuter shocks up from a member shortly

And there are already multiple reviews on the fox valved shocks as well

Any 08+ truck needs to have a degree to it. Flat taper will slightly throw out the angle of your driveline and can cause a slight shimmy.

Let me know if theres anything I can do for you. On your front set up I normally run a 5" OUO Traction block with a taper, as the bar will help tighten up the rear feel of the truck substantially, and smoothen out shifting
