Lifted Chevy Trail Boss: Is Lifting The Trail Boss A Good Idea?

[@kyle9954]

Got my trail boss 2 weeks ago - absolutely love it! If you're on the edge about getting one, do it! I took mine on the beach and some trails a week in and it rips.

[@atylerpearce]

I just bought a 2020 yesterday!!!

[@dreadedwolf6576]

Saw one at the dealership with the cherry bomb color and it was a sight to see!

[@statenmorgan962]

Finally someone who realizes that smaller wheels and bigger tires is better and looks better.

[@kirkdunn1379]

Right!......looks halfway normal and usable....

[@jordanbezeau]

I love more tire and less rim but unfortunately 20s are the smallest rim you can use with a lot of these lifts

[@JustinVachon]

@@jordanbezeau Tons of people showing 35's on the 18" rims with a levelling kit on gm-trucks.com forums

[@justinalden3138]

I have stock 20's on my 2021 ram 2500 and I'm going to be putting a 10 inch lift on it with 40 inch tires and I'm dropping down to 17 inch rims

[@andrewlightbody4221]

I've always thought this. Took the 17 inch rims off my old truck and swapped them with the 20 in rims on my new truck

[@FullMetalPatches]

Just an FYI you only need a 2 inch lift to fit 35" tires on standard chevy silverados....the trailboss should already be able to fit 35's from the factory since they come stock wtih a 2 inch lift but for some reason GM thinks that people want a smaller 32 inch tire. I plan on lifting my LTZ silverado 3 inches with a BDS lift and fitting 35's instead of my 33's that came on the truck

[@kenmccune8843]

Who had this truck they did a very good job taking good care of it that's a awesome truck

[@cordellroberson532]

20's are the smallest you can go with the lift knuckles.

[@carlosmorris4510]

This is probably a decent truck... On stilts. 😆 The lift does give these trucks a more aggressive presence though; a cool look. The available 6.2 V8 is a monster, but this smaller 5.3 should get better MPG - I would think. These pickup videos are quite addictive (and interesting) - an instant like & watch from me, lol!

[@terrycole6229]

I've got the V8 6.2 and it drinks fuel like a fat kid drinks cool aid.

[@Alejandro_Diazd]

Great video Ben the truck looks good

[@Depressedwarriorsfan6238]

It's alright

Good morning 🌄. Beautiful Shevrole. 👍👍👍👍👍

[@jaym7692]

Thanks for the review, and i argee with the set-up for off-road

[@somarleor911]

Never liked these new Chevy body styles. But this one might be changing my mind.

[@lancemartin1153]

Once they update the interior they can complete again. Just looks too outdated for the price.

[@thepro_luis4274]

Interior is pretty nice actually. No need for luxury junk it’s a truck.

[@7thkev519]

@@thepro_luis4274 everyone said the same thing back in 2014-2015 when people were buying the Texas edition or the f150 platinum

[@thepro_luis4274]

@@7thkev519 pretty much the Ram community forced GM to redesign the interior bcuz they always criticize it. The interior is very nice and simple. No need for luxury junk you won’t use.

[@yellawood22]

@@thepro_luis4274 for these prices they need to refresh the interior. I’m paying you this much for a truck? I’m not asking to look like a Tesla, but it’s time for new ideas.

[@Josh-sm6td]

@@yellawood22 yeah now they updatednit and want 15k more 🤣 some if these prices are getting absurd, got a 2021 lt trailboss for the fuckin seatbelts not to be adjustable, i miss my 2016 lt with some of these small things, and borla not making an atak series for these 10 speed 5.3 v8’s sucks too, was nothing better than starting up my 2016 silverado with that exhaust system 🥲

[@MegaCbrrider]

5 inch? Are you sure it's not 6inch? Bds only does 4 and 6 from I've seen

[@thatoff-roaddude9515]

Looks pretty attractive 😍 but yea nothing but RAM here ....still look pretty nice🤙

[@jneptune1540]

Beautiful truck. Factory lift??? Amazing. Did I just see 9.6 mpg??? Worst I every got on display from any of my vehicles owned was 14.

[@jackpinekid1]

Why do you rev the engine when you start it ???

[@MrLuckycentury]

Just trying to think of there is anything out there that compares with the Power Wagon or TRX, I think Ben would agree

[@TEX-704]

The Ford Raptor or the new Chevy ZR2, just guessing.

[@SHAFLOXKSS]

Lifting any truck is a good idea

[@theresistance1111]

Unless it's a 2x4 then lifting is just lame!

[@theresistance1111]

It should have plenty power for 35's.my 2000 5.3 pushes 35's just fine.untill I pull a trailer then we are lil under powered.

[@7thkev519]

Looks alright

[@richie21785]

What your mpg with lift and tires

[@Mill72]

Cheap “lift”. Stock suspension has better off-road capabilities than a spacer lift height. The Fox 2.0 rear shocks are nothing special. Especially paired with stock leafs.

[@themanthelegend7048]

Yes.

[@simonvance8054]

Looks awesome 😎

[@dancobin1985]

Oh dear baby Jesus. Giant spacer, sway drops. Poor man's lift on a $60K truck, sounds about right.

[@BenHardyCars]

LOL

[@dhelding]

Agreed. Crappy lift for a nice truck

[@thearcadeventures]

Amazing truck :)

[@aric2352]

Thought trail boss was 10 speed not 8 speed? Mine is 10 spd!

[@sven_the_giant]

The "custom" trail boss comes in a 8 speed automatic while the LT trim level is 10 speed

[@steventrudeau4955]

@@sven_the_giant my 2021 custom trail boss have a 6 speed.

[@o_cama_5461]

if the 5.3 handled the lift and tire imagine the 6.2

[@davidporter7051]

Everything which replaces GM parts make's the truck better.

oof lol

Is That Chevrolet Silverado Trail Boss

[@johnwalter6410]

Oh my God I wasn't expecting that voice haha I've haha at 1st I thought he was Doing a fake voice

[@Sam-pi2fs]

Is it a 6” lift over top of the factory 2” lift? Or added together is a 6”???

[@payasotunkatumadre876]

It’s a 7 in lift now the 5 in bds lift with stock 2 in lift

[@BERTO929]

What are the wheel specs? Brand?

[@JuanCastillo-pz3gq]

That lift takes the mpg down to 9 smiles per gallon baby!

[@aric2352]

You are so wrong its funny maybe if you can't keep your foot out of the floor! I have exact truck

[@akasythix]

I get about 14.8-15.6 and I have a heavy foot with the 6.2

[@coltonmcfadden9898]

It’s not the lift, it would be the bigger tires lol

[@sven_the_giant]

Can this lifted truck fit in a garage?

[@GoProRuss]

isnt the LT trail boss equipped with a 10 speed not an 8?

[@wildlifesaskatchewan]

Yes it does , at least my 2022 does

[@darklyte24]

Looks nice, lifted but no step?

[@BenHardyCars]

No sadly

[@karrs42901]

I couldn't get rid of mine fast enough. So disappointed in that truck. That 8 speed trans is garbage as its very clunky and will eventually shudder with no fix (trans fluid swap does not work). 5.3L is lackluster. The traction control is way too sensitive (even when turned off). Oil cooler lines are known to separate, mine did and pumped all the oil out leaving me stranded. Stay away from this truck.

[@TheAutumnWind80]

The 2021 Trail Boss has a 10 speed transmission, it shifts incredibly smooth. That 8 speed was having a ton a problems

[@dementedpuppy]

Sounds like you just got a clunker 🤡

[@דניאלאלון-פ4ג]

Dear followers!! Don't let the beautiful pictures confuse you . Anyone who buys a new car from GENERAL Motors the chance you threw your money into the trash is very large. In this company there is no customer service, the company's management does not care at all, if you have a problem or a malfunction, you can only pray to God there is a chance that the help will come faster. GM is a very dangerous company, be careful and keep your money safe.!!!Share so more people don't get screwed.GM is a big bluff

[@CarGuysRule82]

Bruh you got man Capri pants on.

Yeah the problem is ford and dodge and gm are all the same its shit no matter what tbh.

Yeah about that anyone that knows the 5.3 knows it's a massive power house a 48k truck with 7k under the hood would definitely take a 100k trx and a raptor besides the jumping lol
