Tried to climb for the first time

[Kaz109]

At Raptor Assault, if I remember correctly, the rears were at 31-33 cold. Low enough that the TPMS sensors were going off.

I agree with others as well that our trucks can definitely handle more than 21 degrees up/down but that 34 degrees sideways, boy what an eerie feeling.

Also, if you have a MY19/20, give that trail control a try! It’s amazing what it can do going up and down those hills.

Yea I actually forgot about the trail control. Think I'll air down and try it . I chickened out the first time when I took that pic

I keep my rears at 32 psi and have never had a TPMS sensor go off.

You'll lose traction before you go over backwards. Physics says you might could do 45 degrees ... but in real life it's not happening.

Based on what we did at Raptor Assault, the truck did as much as 34 degrees sideways and did about 21 degrees up/down.

34 degree roll angle!?!? Would've thought it'd tip well before then. Wow.

Oh believe me, it felt like it was going to in both driver and passenger seat.

Given my admittedly limited knowledge of physics, I'd still have to say it seems the truck could do a lot more than 21 degrees up/down before flipping head over tail (or vice-versa).

In the OP's pic it looks like he's at 21 degrees, and obviously is nowhere close to the nose coming up and over. I had my 2012 higher than 21 and felt no fear it was going to flip, unless I'm just missing something here...

It can, i've done 28 and it had quite a bit more in it.

Were you stock when you did This? What mode was used? Tire pressure etc etc

All stock. Aired down to around 30PSI. I was in rock crawl mode in the video below because it was quite a bit more difficult than the previous times I've attempted it due to rains and undoubtedly off roaders washing it out. I've done it in the past in 4 Low, normal drive mode. This video is me showing my GF's brother some of the off-road features, he's itching to buy a Raptor.

Were you using trail control?

Were you using trail control?

I’ve got a 2018. No trail control, not that I’d use it anyway. I like putting in the work. I only have hill descent control, which I didn’t use either.
