Hello everyone, I would like your help to know I can put this size of tires (Duratrac 285/75/18) on my traillboss .. if so with which mag  (offsett - / + or not?)

My trailboss  has a 2.5 "lift kit and is all black and I want mags all black or almost all black!

 

thanks !

You should be able to run that on the stock wheels.  If you use after market wheels you will need a rim with a positive offset.  You could level the truck if you want to run it with 0 or negative offset.

Not sure what a "mag" is but +15 is close to stock offset.  Also do you have the stock Trailboss lift? Or do you have an aftermarket lift?  Stock lift is only 2 inches

You want to stick with a higher offset regardless or you will rub.  What aftermarket lift do you have?  The only kit available for a Trailboss right now is a 4 inch lift which puts total height at 6 inches.  Can you post a link?

Don't Trail Bosses come with Duratrac tires on all black 18" wheels?

You can get the Trailboss with 18's or 20's. The 20's are an $800 option and come with 275 60 20 Bridgestone Dueler AT.  I got the 20's on mine and love them!

Still haven't seen a TB in the wild with the 20's. Plenty of AT4s running around with 20's (actually, 90% of the ones I've seen have 20s). 

 

I think the TB / AT4 looks better with the bigger wheels, personally. I realize the tires are not as aggressive, though.

Just curious if anyone has tried fitting 285/75 18s on stock wheels in stock height for the TB. I really don’t want more lift, just the larger wire for a bit more clearance.  It’s almost 3 inches total diameter difference between stock, so that should give me an addition inch and a pinch in added clearance.

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
