But those of us who do care for one reason or another, this is the best I can come up with. On a 4.5" ICON they claim a 50% increase in travel. I believe stock is around 6-7. (Someone correct me if thats wrong though.) So that looks like about 9-10.5 on an ICON kit. The Carli kit is also a 4.5" kit. But they claim to have around 10" of travel. So it looks to be close to the same amount. But I also had the same thoughts when I first looked into what was the best for what I wanted. I happen to like the Carli kit, but others may like the ICON kit with maybe an upgraded shock. A friend of mine has an ICON 4.5 with FOX 2.5 shocks that seams to ride pretty darn good. On road and off. But in the end it may just a bit of personal prefrence.
Yup,
In the case of the Superduties you see an increase of 3-4" of travel in the front with the Carli 4.5 coilover kit. This is partially due to the very low spring perch that they use on the Kings as well as their increadibly stout upper coilover mount that replaces the stock coil bucket. They are very close to releasing more information on their other Ford stuff that uses standard coils and will be available with multiple shock packages.

Anyone with a Carli ford video yet? I know this kit's the top of the line, but I'd still like to see it in action before I buy one. Sorry, but the videos of this product get me goin.
