{"product_id":"cs-frad-lvl-2325","title":"CARLI 23+ FORD F250\/350 4X4 RADIUS ARM DROP BRACKETS - 3.5\" LIFT","description":"Designed for perfect fitment on the updated 2023+ Ford Superduty trucks, these drops will correct geometry with 3.5\" lifts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe 2023+ Super Duty introduced some new challenges, specifically pertaining to caster. The steering assist and Ford’s 1° – 3.6° allowable caster range seems to work alright for those equipped with stock, relatively low-mileage Super Duties but, once a lift or oversized tire enters the equation, the handling at this low caster specification leaves us wanting.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen lifting the front of the Super Duty 3 – 3.5″, the factory caster is reduced by approximately 1.5°. For the 2020-23 Super Duty, we provide a 2° caster shim which is enough to restore this caster and add a touch more – unfortunately, this “touch more” is rarely enough for proper tracking. This leaves us recommending our Adjustable Radius Arms proven to add an additional 2.5° of caster (when maxed). Combining the Carli Arms and 2° shims results in a Super Duty on 37″ tires that holds a lane, and returns to center after a turn, better than a stock truck.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEnter the 2024 Super Duty – Ford made ONE change to the platform… They added an outer axle-mounted guard to prevent debris from entering the outside axle tube. The issue is in the functionality of the ball-joint mounted caster shims we provide in our 05-23 Super Duty Systems to correct the caster. These shims don’t affect the axial position of the axle, but rotate the knuckle\/upper ball joint position rearward relative to the axle’s outer “c” to increase caster.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGiven the tight proximity of this debris shield to the axle tube, any caster shim over 1° will cause contact. Unfortunately, these trucks come with low caster from the factory compounded by the loss of caster from lifting the truck (radius arms tilt the axle forward – reducing caster – as the axle travels away from the frame); we had to figure out a solution.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Carli Radius Arm Drops for 3.5\" lifts were designed to fix this problem once and for all. The bolt-on design is a simple and easy installation that will provide the necessary increase in caster at a lower price point than installing the full Carli Radius Arm System and are compatible with stock OR the Carli Adjustable arms.","brand":"Carli Suspension","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43667592315015,"sku":"CS-FRAD-LVL-2325","price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/3925\/1335\/files\/a5b0cea032d62ff2b6a890bca2b0e78e_3d77e6c5-1c41-4c63-b52c-501edbb2f62f.jpg?v=1766483377","url":"https:\/\/www.randysworldwide.com\/products\/cs-frad-lvl-2325","provider":"RANDYS Worldwide","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
