Jumping a ram rebel/trail boss

[Mister Pinky]

It probably wouldn’t take it too well.

Per Car and Driver:

“It's important to remember when driving the Rebel off-road that it is merely a fortified version of a standard light-duty pickup and not a fully integrated performance rig in the vein of Ford's F-150 Raptor.”

A Rebel consists of 33” All Terrains, bigger Bilstein shocks with reservoirs on the rear, and a 1” lift. It’s ‘off-road-lite’, like a Trail Boss or the Tremor package.

It does not have the frame reinforcement like a Raptor or TRX. I think the percentage is over 73% of the Ram frame is different for the TRX. That should tell you everything you need to know right there.

with your habits mr singh you need hydraulic bumpstops on your raptor asap

It really is a matter of where and how you land and what sort of give that's got. I mean, if you ran it off a pier, for example, I doubt there would be any frame damage.

Hahaha looking into that asap, pretty sure I see a small dent where the oem bump stop is

Which is about the only thing I’d recommend doing with them.

Here’s a raptor jumping over a hummer lol close enough

man.. I think that Raptor is totaled now... he put all the weight in the back and when he landed the second jump, i saw that bed flex down almost a foot... poor truck

Hell I wouldn’t even turn a dodge over let alone get one airborne. Over the years I’ve only ever gotten one make airborne other than a Raptor. 79 Volvo 240 , wasn’t planned and ended up ripping the front struts clean off. I imagine the same thing would happen in the trail boss

You'd probably rip off the front bumper due to crappy clearance. Do it enough times and it would definitely be the end of the shock mounts and maybe twist the frame. Plenty of vids of people hooning 90s trucks that have weaker frames and suspensions and they still drive afterwards...don't recommend it in a trail boss though

I jumped my restomod 68 Mustang thru a intersection. Sparks flew and a cop pulled me over. He said it looked cool so he only gave me a warning. Car was fine.

The only Dodge I would jump...
