Reason number 5 for lifting your truck: you have a much better view ahead of you while driving. If someone has to hit the breaks 2, 3 or 4 cars ahead, you'll know right away and can respond accordingly.

Here in the South= lots of wild animals on the road,especially deer 🦌,an average car the deer usually ends up in the cabin seating right next to you! So… that’s why we drive lifted trucks

I got the BDS 4 inch lift kit with the fox shocks upgrades in the rear on my 2020 ram limited. I went with 35 inch tires on 20 inch wheels and I can honestly say that the ride is better than it was when it was stock. A week after getting the lift kit installed I drove from Long Island New York to Houston Texas and back and I can tell you I thoroughly enjoyed driving every single mile. This truck is like a Mercedes-Benz with a pick up truck bed on it. Also, BDS will fight your dealer in court if they don’t cover your suspension warranty.

2 years later.. what’s your thoughts now? I just ordered 35s for my 2020 limited and was looking at the same lift. Thoughts?

No.5 reason is its easier to drain fluids without having to raise it up with lifts and ramps

To me? bieng able to see over everything else around you is quite an advantage! that would be my number 5, especially here in the north, snowstorms and piles of snow piled up high on the sides of the roads, I can see clearly over all of it!! OH!! and great truck. Thanks for all the info you provide, love your content!! 🙂

Got Carli suspension with King 2.5” pro/reservoir shocks, 35” on 20x12.5 Proline wheels. Handles soooo much better. Truck looks smoking hot too. What you said was true. Good info.

The feeling of having power while driving is amazing and for that the Reason #5 is To have the commanding view!!

subscribed bc your vids helped me with the exhaust and lift love the vids can’t wait to start doing the mods on my 5th gen💯

Awesome video and one of the best looking Ram Rebel's I've seen!! Lift

Just got my 21 ram rebel… after 10 + years of leasing and owning German cars. Loving the truck life. Barely fits in my spot in downtown Denver.

It’s tough for me to keep my trucks ride height stock 🤣. Can’t wait to see what’s coming soon on the channel!

Just got a 2019 rebel I love it thanks for advice

Just finished installing a 3 1/2 Rough-country struts and control arms in front, 2 in spacers from Ready-Lift in rear. Did lift so I wont lose my front license plate and bracket on trails.

1-5 for me - off-road performance, and while I didn't go with the 6inch lift I went with BDS 2.5 coilovers lift with BDS upper CAs, and swapped out the rear CAs for Freedom Off-road uppers and lowers. Sitting on Method 704s wrapped in Pro Comp A/Ts 35s she rips.

Lift… went 6” bds with coilovers , and limited edition method 305’s on 35’s. 21 Rebel that almost looks like yours. Similar stuff with red accents hense the wheel choice. Solid black interior… sadly still waiting to install wheels due to waiting on fox to finish coilovers… prob won’t be done and on till mid to late oct. good time to drive around mountains of colorado and Moab !

Lifted, rough country 6" with 35 inch ridge grapplers. Rides excellent.

Great video and great looking truck! Lift is great too. :)

I have a 2020 rebel very similar to yours (decals color and all) about to put the vertex lift on it. Watched your videos. Definitely excited to get the performance pluses. And the beefier look.

Thinking about getting rc vertex 6in for my 21 bighorn. Had 7in vertex on 16 Silverado with 35s and they were amazing . I know you’re indecisive with sticking with 35s or going up to 37s. I was looking into 325/60r20 (35.4/12.8r20). You think that’s a happy medium? A bit wider but get that little extra height since 35s are actually 34.7ish and 37s about 36.7in

Went n test drove a white 22 rebel yesterday its priced right think I'm goin to go buy it tomorrow

Lifting too high effects stability. Enhanced wear on all suspension parts. Transmission works slightly harder. Effects towing capability and can cause squatting effect. I would do a two to three inch lift max.

Ram1500 crewcab I put 3inch motofab leveling kit on 2inch back I love it ❤ all I need now some 33's

@@evanram6608 35s are heavy so you lose MPG. The ride experience really depends on the tire you pick... obvioisly going with an A/T over M/T youll get less road noise and some slightly better mpg. I only rub when in reverse at full crank, otherwise no rub.

My 5th pro would have to be personification I love seeing how people alter their vehicle to make it their own like no one else’s on the road. I have a third GEN ram 1500 and I have never seen a truck that looks like mine and people ask me all the time when I’m at gas stations and tailgating at sporting events and concerts what is it that I’ve done etc. and I love it.

Nothing better than a lifted truck

Beautiful truck… been looking at various vids as im considering a 3.5 on my Laramie.

3" air suspension lift...added 35's. Works great....perfect ride and great on the trails....ride at 2200 rpm. ...that usually cranks at 80mph on highways. But mpg went from 17 mpg to under 14....hurts a little

I can not do stock height. My 4th gen Ram 1500 was leveled, my 5th gen Ram 1500 had a 3 1/2 lift, and now my new baby a 2021 5th gen Ram 1500 is in the shop now getting a modest lift 😁. To each his or her own, I do see the bad in it, but the pros outweigh those completely in my opinion. 🤷🏿‍♂️

Lift! Can’t wait to see the unveil of the new truck

I would love to lift my truck but the problem is once I put a 6inch lift to it I won’t be able to park it inside the garage. My garage is kinda low maybe a 2 inch lift is max

Why am I getting the same mpg as you and I don't have that size tires...

Great video as always! Question. What is the best lift to get like 2” on my 2019 Ram with air ride suspension. I just put 33x12.50x22 rims and tires on it. I would probably be happy with the height it sits with the air ride all the way up on level 5. Problem is you can’t drive with it at that level. If I could get it to stay at that height I would be happy. I greatly appreciate you taking the time to read my comment and hopefully you can reply. Thank you!

Thank you fir watching, I’m not sure if you can override the air suspension to stay up with the z automotive tazer but might be worth looking into, I’m not a big fan of spacers cause of how it affects the angles of cv axles but a small spacer might not be too bad only running a 33

I have a ram big horn. Looking at a 3.5" lift. But like the rig'(lift)

Have you had any issues with tsc turning on when taking on ramp or off ramp or corner with a little speed. Traction stability control that can’t be turned off and is part of the ABS circuit. My ram is a 2021 bighorn with a 3.5 inch rough country lift with stock 20’s wrapped in 35x11.50’s and truck spazes out applying ABS when going around corners slightly faster than advised speeds. Ever had any issues or notice the tcs acting differently once lifted ? Thanks nice rig.
