Does Lifting Your Truck RUIN Your Truck?! 

Get LIFTED! www.customoffsets.com

26 to 9 mpg that’s a yikes from me lol

Me idc if I have to use the walk in atm or if my kids can’t get in. All I care about it is that it looks hella nice

You forgot carwashes. You can't fit in carwashes anymore. :) I think the best of both worlds is a leveled truck. You can stuff a bigger tire underneath to get a better look and still fit through the drive thru's :)

I like how they put the gas mileage at the end, short and sweet lol hahaha 26-9. Yeeeaaaahhh big difference buddy.

"I'd check my balance but I have a new truck so I know I don't have no money" 😂😂😂😂😂

Okay well here's my excuse Co, I AIN'T GOT THE MONEY!!!! LOL

Seems like the fundamental benefit of a lifted truck is the room to put on big tires that will give you more ground clearance. With that you can go off road and maybe even take Moab. Being able to go where other people can't is a nice luxury to have.

If you do it wrong it’ll be ruined. Change the different gear ratios to whatever will match the stock ratio to stock tire size to the new tire size. Get a lift from a good company like BDS or Cognito so it’s not a spacer-based lift. Instead, it’s one that’s all replacement parts (ex. Lifted struts from BDS). Can’t forget new leaf springs or traction bars to prevent axle wrap. Edit: If you do gears, your gas mileage will not drop very much or not at all. I did it for my ‘17 1500 Silverado with 6” BDS & 35s. I still get 15 mpg in the city and around 20-22 on highway. I did 4.56 gears from Nitro Gear & Axle.

Some grate content, would love to see them do the MPG test with corrected ring and pinion gearing, almost NO ONE does it, it would bring 90% of your power back. But it’s still a taller truck with a little more wind drag, but it would for sure get better mpg with corrected gearing.

"Now you have no more excuses" Me: 9 miles per gallon

Parking garages can also be a fun little hassle... nothing like hanging out the window to see if you clear by an inch.... haha

not a truck guy but sheeeeesh that lifted truck is nice afff

Great vid! Ordered a rim and tire package from you guys about three weeks ago and I can’t stop looking at my truck. THANK YOU!!

I think the RUIN MY TRUCK PART would mean like ball/cv joints, front axles, bearings, and even tires. I know with the right lift one would need to install ALL THE RIGHT PART to make it proper.

My 2018 sierra 6.2 gets 17 in town on 35s. I love the 6.2

I have 35x15 on my 2018 GMC Sierra on a 6 inch rough country lift

may not be able to use drive throughs but everyone in the drive through has their eyes on that lifted beast.

Just bought a 2021 F-150, and love the truck. Last two trucks I’ve owned were lifted, but am having a hard time deciding to mess with suspension on this one or not. I’ve never gone cheap, so ride quality wasn’t sacrificed, but fuel efficiency, and towing will be affected.

What about bed usability? That's a big thing with trucks.

Now talk warranties and how parts will wear.

Those 5.3 motors are doggy to start with, can’t imagine with 37s and a 6 in lift. 6.2 is what I would be running with a lift. Just my 2 cents

Y’all need to rate @BackroadDriver’s The Wolf

Oh the sound of when that gov lock just smacks the freaking gears in the lifted truck

Test drove a lifted truck recently was avg 13mpg. I don’t see how people afford that at current gas prices unless it just sits in their driveway looked great but went with with stock.

Why I went with a 4” BDS on 33’s with the Fox shock upgrade. Damn near feels stock.

I was talking with a guy at a job I was on and when he put a 6" lift and 35" on his 4th gen ram he went down to like 12mpg. Which is about what my mostly stock 01 ram with basically 33" (285 75 16) gets

I have a 4in lift on a 99 gmc sierra 4wd. Need to fix the 4wd currently. Only owned thus truck for bout 3 months now.

If you color matched that front bumper itd bring everything together so clean

Wow that mpg. My Tacoma 6 inch and 35s went from 18 to 14 not that big of a deal and that's doing 75. Now if I floor it all the way and stay between 95-100 it does get 10 mpg. I would say to people do your own research in the forums to see what other people are getting.

Didn’t mention anything about the usability of the bed after lifting. Only thing I regret about lifting my truck is that it’s a bitch to use the bed to move big/heavy objects Bc you have to lift them higher to get them in the bed

This was a good video and I use my truck to tow and haul and for work and I don’t want to lift my truck cause obs Ford F-350 already come pretty tall form factory but I want to do ether 35 or 37s on some American force wheels just not 100 percent sure what size of wheel and size of rim was think 20x12 but might do something different and yeah soem drive thoughts it’s a pain to get my 97 7.3 through even in stock form and that’s why I kinda don’t want to lift my truck and yeah I need to get my truck tuned for mpg and a little more power

Jingle bells Jingle bells Jingle all the way Buy from custom offsets hurry don’t delay!

Do a off-road and high speed highway test with curves

I'd like to know more about that coil over front end you have on that Chevy.

Please regear your axles lol your mpg will be so much better

I think having a big lifted/stanced truck in the city would not be fun especially parking. Luckily I live in a small town and you could daily drive a semi truck and it wouldn't be an issue haha

Honestly feel accomplished if I cannot fit😂

2012 silverado 5.3 4x4 with a 6 inch lift and 35's i get 14.5 city and 18-25 highway depending on how fast im going. Tuned myself with hp tuners and before it wouldnt see anything over 12 and trans downshifted constantly.

Holy crap from 26 to 9 mpg was a lot worse than I was expecting.

You guys should do a video on the best tundras in the gallery, before the new one comes out

I wanna work for you guys

Dam dude, I have a 6in zone lift 35s 20x12s in my 2019 Sierra and I’m getting 15 mpg with the 5.3. 9 mpg is rough.

I put a 3.5” lift kit along with 3.5” lifted struts on my Tundra. Also put 2” larger diameter mud tires on 18x9 rims. Ended up raising the truck about 5.5”. My MPG dropped from 19.2 to about 15.5. Then I added a catback dual exhaust and a cold air intake. Brought my MPG back up to 17.6 mpg - when I don’t get after it! I still want to install a tuner so the odometer, speedometer and ECM are calibrated for the new setup. But, I also felt it wasn’t going to be practical once lifted. WRONG. It’s still my daily driver. When I bought my tundra, it rode like a sedan. Now it rides like a TRUCK! #WINNING

banker the best one for videos i get he’s a tech also tho

Truck I can use or a mall crawler... 🤔

4 inch RC lift with 33x12.50r20 on my 5.3 still gets good gas mileage and can off road

Aaron Rodgers doin truck reviews now 🤣 👌

I have a 2015 Chevy Silverado 4x4, 8” lift on 37’s and I average 12mpg, no tune.

Do this again but add a Lowered truck

What kind of bumper is that

id love to lift my truck but so many people in my family (including me) have bad knees so it just isnt possible. sad.

Smiles per gallon are 10000000000

What’s a better lift kit - The superlift or the Readylift ?

Wow I’ve been subbed since like 24k subs awesome how this blew up

Yes

Parking decks? City roads?

Why the Superlift versus another option? Intrigued.

6.2 with 10 speed would be sweet lifted does anyone use the DFM disabler?

I just picked up a Ford expedition 4x4 and trying to think of what u should do with it, its a 2000 and I live out in the high desert of cali any thoughts?

When someone says they don't want to lift their truck because of gas mileage if you're that concerned about how many miles per gallon you get you should have bought a Prius

Huntter= budget friendly Fuller

26-9mpg. Idc if that lifted truck could smd. Id rather leave it stock

Great video guys

Did you change the gearing in diffs?

For us farmers who haul goose neck trailers I can easily say that you can’t do that in a large lifted truck. I personally love lifted trucks but I have a stock truck for my goose neck trailers

I feel like you still would’ve fit though the drive thru I see a lot of lifted trucks still in drive thrus they just obviously park over the lines lol

Why was the intro so🔥🔥tho

You have to be into the cool factor because it does work harder with a lift on big wheels/tires. Anything over 35's you should re gear. Mpg goes to shit. And unless you buy a very expensive lift kit which most people dont it is far less comfortable than a stock ride. It's not for everyone but those that do are the coolest dudes going down the road next to a sports car.

Got a new truck? Build coming soon?

Turning radius? Breaking test? Moose test? Parking?

Hey Banker Did you re gear your front and rear diffs? I was shocked you could do a burn out with your 37”s. I have a 2019 Silverado with a 6,2. 8” lift sitting 37’s. I want to re gear but I don’t see anything out there.

what does tuning and deleting do to a lifted truck?

9.6 mpg? Dude, I get 14.3 with a 5.7 and 35s. That sucks😂😂mine has never been tuned either

I went in to this Video thinking they were gonna off-road them.... but I was wrong

26 mpg? That's pretty good. Is that combined?

Hey man , wat kind of jeans are those they look nice

I'm going to buy this guy some new pants 👖 for Christmas🎄

I average 9.6 with a 7 inch lift on 26x14 and 37s

That a 6 inch lift with 37s ?

Hows the gas mileage with the lifted truck while towing max weight ??

Truck looks sick but why you park like that?

Skeptical on the speed test unless the gear ratio is different between them.

Really that bad of fuel mpg loss?

Wouldn't u want to change the gearing in the diffs

If I drive like a grandma I can get 11 and my truck only leveled

Banker you should paint the red parts of the z71 badges in lime green

Y’all did not have to use hunter as a kid😂😂😂💀💀

Why didn't you mention axle gearing?? That makes the biggest difference in performance and drivability for a truck with larger tires. I assume the Silverado has been regeared given that it's on 37s. You can't think that a truck will perform anywhere near stock if it has a lot more tire on stock gears. Please make people aware of this because a lot of people building street queens like these may not know anything about different tire sizes and gears.

why is the website down??

But you can’t put a gooseneck or fifth-wheel on a lifted truck

his cv axle angles are bleeding to the p

do I need a suspension lift for a 3" lift or can I use leveling blocks? I have an 03 silverado 1/2 ton.

Uhhh intro song?

So these are gassers then?

That intro tho.

You should leave the ADD bumper black and don’t paint it because it makes it look taller and more aggressive

Day 4 asking for From the gallery : Chevy colorados

Weve had this video like 4 times already

its making me wanna lift my Brand new Chevy Silverado duramax 2500HD
