The Commuter 2. 0 system is designed for the customer seeking the best on-road ride quality on a budget.

Improve the ride of your daily driver with this entry level system built for comfort while keeping your wallet in mind.

Features and Benefits:

  • In Short: The Commuter 2.0 system is designed for people seeking the best on-road ride quality on a budget. The mono-tube, internal reservoir, Carli Spec 2.0 boasts 6063 aluminum construction, anodized body for corrosion resistance, 5/8 hardened steel chrome plated shaft, full serviceability & rebuildability and are built with 1-peice bushings in the 6061 billet rod-ends. These shocks are spec'd with a premium 5WT oil to balance lubricity, consistent damping and the widest available range in temperature variation. We back these with a 1-year warranty, serviced by Carli. More details on these shocks can be found Here.
  • The Details: Your truck will sit 2.5 inch-3 inch higher in the front (year/cab configuration dependent) with 50 percent more suspension travel than the factory platform thanks to the taller, lighter rate coil springs. The rear is lifted 1 inch-2 inch via the customer's choice of a Progressive Add-A-Pack or Full Progressive Leaf Pack. The Progressive Add-A-Pack maintains load capacity and replaces the factory overload with a 5-Leaf, progressive pack that changes the final rate of the spring pack keeping the rear planted while increasing traction and predictability. The optional Full Progressive Leaf Pack replaces the entire factory leaf spring assembly increasing travel and drastically increasing comfort (when compared to when compared to the factory springs or add-a-pack) throughout the entire usable travel stroke reducing payload to a light 3/4-ton spec. This can be brought back to factory capacity with the use of Carli Long Travel Airbags to achieve the best ride and adjustable rear load capacity!
  • When pairing added down-travel with the taller ride height, the position of the factory, front sway bar will need to be altered as well. For this, we offer two options (unless 1994-2002, then there's only one)
  • extended, Sway Bar End Links or the replacement Torsion Sway Bar. The End links are equipped with 1-2 inch FK Rod-Ends and in-house machined 17-4 stainless bodies that are extended over stock to reset the sway bar engagement points. Factory pillow-bushings are re-used to assemble the sway bar to the lengthened link. Carli's optional Torsion sway bar removes the entire factory sway bar assembly replacing it with a torsion bar supported by fabricated drop brackets and delrin bushings. Fabricated sway bar arms and dual 5/8 inch FK heim end links round off the package. This is the single best bang for the buck, ride-quality upgrade offered by Carli Suspension (in close competition with the full progressive leaf spring upgrade).
  • When lifting the front end of a straight axle truck, the front axle is pulled off-center unless the proper linkages are addressed. Three inches of front lift equates to an axle shifted toward the driver's side 3-4 inch and back toward the cab 1-2 inch. This system includes an Adjustable Track Bar to push the axle back toward the passenger side and provide a stronger link with less deflection for the lifted application. We also recommend the purchase of a set of extended control arms to shift the axle forward to its new center of travel.
  • Wheel and Tire: This system will fit up to a 35 inch tire with stock control arms (we recommend purchasing our extended, Mild Steel Control Arms) on wheels with 5.75-6 inch of backspacing. If running factory wheels, we recommend an All Terrain 35 inch tire to avoid rubbing. For 37 inch tire fitment, our High-Clearance Control Arms and Adjustable Track Bar can be paired to a wheel with 5.75 inch of Backspacing. The more rubber, the better the small bump compliance will be at proper inflation pressures. The ride will firm up as you go larger in wheel diameter. For more details, see our article on wheel and tire selection and tire pressures:
  • Features Carli-Tuned 2.0 shocks which provide a more comfortable on-road feel and better offr-road performance. Corrosion resistant aluminum bodies provide long-lasting finish.
  • System includes Multi-rate front coil springs, front and rear shock package, shock tower spacer, and adjustable track bar.
  • Truck wil sit 2.5-3 inch higher (year/cab coniguration dependent) and wheel travel will be increased by 50 percent thanks to the taller, lighter rate coil springs.
  • Fits up to 37 inch tires for a more aggresize appearance and better offroad performance.
  • Requires but does Not include leaf spring option and sway bar option.
