In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum.

Telluride sx lift and larger tires

For all considering the Truxxx lift. The directions say to leave out the rubber bushings. I did and mine sat 1” low in the rear and made a squeaking noise. I had the bushings put back in today. It now sits level and is quiet. Just a FYI.

Thanks for that. I'm getting close to ordering. Planning on KMC 18" Mesh in black and the new Pirelli AT tires in 265/60/18. The new Pirelli AT has the snow flake, I'm hoping to avoid getting snow tires. I ski a lot so we'll see.
 
I think you would be good without the lift.

Thanks for fast reply. I like the look better lifted. So a 265/60/20 sounds like a better lifted option?

From the parts included, the lift seems like a simple install. Does anyone have the installation instructions? I looked at the Truxxx website and didn't see them.

Hey So why does the back end look like it is sagging? Sometimes our stock suspension with the load Leveling shocks looks to be sagging at times... then other time loos to be leveled out as it should...

I like to know if 265/60/20 would fit if not lifted?? Probably not... Probably rub quite a bit... But i do like to go up the mountain where we live and a little more side wall (60s) would be great

Looks awesome! My truck comes this week. Do you have any side profile pictures with the rubber bushings back in? Thanks
 
I am in the market for this kit. I plan to get this very soon. I will be using the stock wheels and tires with this lift. Pics to follow.
Did you ever get this done? Was hoping for a picture of the lift with stock (18) tires. Thanks!

Looks great. What did the 2in lift and tires give you in extra clearance? I know original clearance was 7.9in.

Want to install my Truxx 2 in lift tomorrow but I do not know the Axle nut torque for when I put it back together. Anyone know what it is or where I can find it? Thanks
 
Nice! Mine is in the mail. I've had 265/65/18's(32's) on mine for a few months.
Hey, Did you try the 2" Truxxx lift with the 265/65/18s?

I'm having the Truxxx 2" lift put on soon and ordering rims and tires, Liquid Metal Rotary 18 x 8 with 40mm offset. Debating between 265/60/18 or 265/65/18 I'm concerned about rubbing.

I've had the 265/65/18's on a 32 offset wheel for almost a full year and they rub a bit. Ive had the Truxxx lift on for a few weeks now and they still rub a bit. They only rub slightly and only 1 or so spots while almost at full lock. If you're worried about the rubbing I'd go with the 60's but i think 65's look so good on it.
