Small correction: for legal reasons - i.e. so buyers don't need a CDL - the F450 has less payload than the F350. Since the F450 weighs more they have to lower the payload capacity on the sticker to keep vehicle weight at max 14,000 lbs. I would still own an F450 since "overbuilt" = "long life". I love mine!
@@unitaper it was a joke. I roll deep into six figures yearly. I could afford one if I wanted but I choose not to put my money into depreciating assets like this.
I have a slide in truck camper, I like your lift and set up… What’s the overall width of the rear that truck with the American forces, adapters, and 12.5 wide tire set up?
@@CJCOffRoadhow are 37” tires able to fit on this or a 23/24 f450 . What’s the minimum lift or level you offer so a person wouldn’t have to cut/trim a bunch ?
Have a 2024 350 Platinum stock, would like to add this look and ride to it. Only concern is pulling safely my 41’ 5th wheel at 25k. What do you suggest tire/wheel/ lift setup?
Can you provide the outermost wheel measurements. Basically from outer left wheel to outer right wheel. I’m looking to use your lift kit with the same wheel/tire set up and just verifying it fits into my garage opening. Thank you
I'm looking at building up a used f450 to haul a heavy truck camper. Would your recommend this build for my situation? I love the look! Also, I live in Michigan and this would be my daily driver. How's it handle in the snow, ice, slush and rain?
This build would be a perfect example. You get the high capacity of the 450, but with better suspension to be able to take the truck off the pavement. We also offer shock wrap protection kits for guys like you that need to deal with salt and corrosive environments.
What would you guys suggests if I wanted that much lift in the front. But still wanted to maintain just a little bit of rake. So that it sits level with a trailer and not nose up. Maybe a 1 1/2 raise in the back?
For this particular truck, the standard soft ride as that's what the customer wanted. The stock F-450 leaf packs are a physically different size/shape, so the add a packs don't fit!
This truck still requires you to get a non commercial CDL the moment you hook a trailer to it. Just look at DOT websites from any state. And its because what it can haul, not what youre hauling.

And the turning radius is way worth it.
Which is annoying because the addition of a 14k gvwr trailer then requires you to get a CDL anyway.
When I win the lotto… this is what I’ll drive daily.
Out here on PHX this is all you see daily in the NW Valley...
Why not work hard and make more money?

Tell me about it
What a beast. Looks crazy from the back
Id definitely would do it this way now i want one like it
Looks fantastic!

Yikes! This think looks intense! Like a tank!
When can ya make a video of an excursion with the similar suspension system?
Beast mode
Nice! Glad to finally see one. The 37’s look good. But one curious how some 35’s on 20’s might look. To small?
With how big these trucks are, a 37 definitely looks more proportional!

You guys should do a 2024 gmc 2500hd at4
We will!

Beautiful. What's a setup like this roughly cost?
Easy to build piece by piece on their site, id guess 3-5k with all the add on’s. Not including tires/ rims

I didn't see an f450 option on your website
Here's a link to the 450 suspension section: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/f450-suspension-systems
Would you still be able to use the front mud flaps on this truck with this set up?
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Did you guys upgrade the Diff cover or was that already installed on the truck?
That's actually factory on F-450s
Curious if those tires would be rated for the weight of potential trailers/payload
There's tons of tire options out there so it's pretty easy to find something that meets the hauling needs of the customer.
What can this set up tow? More or less than stock? Can tow 30k lbs still?
I’m not seeing a kit for the 23 450 ? When will that be available ?
These systems fit from 2017 to current! Here's a link to the level height 450 systems: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/f450-2-5-kits
Do you need to add the leaf springs in the package or can go with out them
You can retain stock no problem.
What is the smallest diameter rims you could realistically run on an f450?? I hate the big rim look.
The smallest we've seen for these trucks are 20" diameter. There's really no high end aftermarket dually wheels smaller than that!
@@CJCOffRoad thanks, yeah I’ve been shopping and that’s what I’ve seen too.
If you aren't going larger than 35s, you can run a 285/70R19.5 on a 19.5x7.5 wheel.
Get 15”

What would you guys suggests if I wanted that much lift in the front. But still wanted to maintain just a little bit of rake. So that it sits level with a trailer and not nose up. Maybe a 1 1/2 raise in the back?
All you'd need is a slightly taller block for the stock leaf packs!
Does this setup turn completely or did you guys need to trim a lot?
This setup turns and articulates completely after minor plastic trimming.
but which full leaf pack is it? HD?
XHD? OR XXHD?
Also explain for the rest of us why the Add-a-packs won't fit on the F450 Springs?
For this particular truck, the standard soft ride as that's what the customer wanted. The stock F-450 leaf packs are a physically different size/shape, so the add a packs don't fit!
@@CJCOffRoaddo the progressive springs fit on the 4.5 inch diameter axle?
Do you offer any 6 inch kits for the F450? I have a 2022 but would like to run 38's and go up 6 inches
We offer a whole line of 4.5" systems if you want to run 38s: www.cjcoffroad.com/collections/f450-4-5-kits
F450 Truck level on 37s 22s, will it Rub on full turn?
It should clear on dually wheels.
This truck still requires you to get a non commercial CDL the moment you hook a trailer to it.
Just look at DOT websites from any state. And its because what it can haul, not what youre hauling.
Only for trailers with a GVWR over 10,000 lbs.
Rear setup looks not DOT legal
