Telluride towing package owners

[Dadsbadback]

Will someone that owns one of the telle’s with the tow package please post pictures of the rear suspension from underneath.

I’d like to see what the rear leveling suspension consists of so I can somehow retrofit it. Please and thank you.

Let me know if you need more photos

I can't see airbags. Unless I'm missing something. I saw there is a port installed hitch and harness (no air bags). Then EX and higher has the option of factory hitch, harness, airbags. Maybe this is the port installed variation?

I didn't see any airbags down there either. It's listed as a factory add-on.

Looks like The adjustable suspension is built in to the shock/ struts. That’s good news, means the adjustable parts can be added on. I’m doubting there is much to change to retrofit them to the telles without them

Thank you for the photos. I’ve asked eeveranpeople

I bet the self-leveling system is very similar to the Sorento and indeed built into the shock absorber

You are probably correct sir. I will do the switch once I’ve got solid confirmation of part numbers.

I will call my parts lady tomorrow

I hope the parts are somewhat affordable.

Brother. When you get a chance will you please post a closer shot of the rear struts ( next to coil springs ) please and thank you. It seriously means a lot.

Straight on pic right there. I think I see a part number on the middle of the shock in white print too? That would be good to have.

 

[Dadsbadback]

I agree

Subbed for part#

Went and spoke with my parts gal. She’s very nice and knowledgeable. She gave me the run down on parts that are different between the auto leveling system and the standards rear suspension.


She believes a pc flash would also be needed but couldn’t verify. Parts are listed below. I am somewhat doubtful as to some of the parts not being able to be reused. Here you go.

Great work.

What is the insulator strut 55310-S1150? and dust cover 55370-C5050?

So all we need is 55367-S9000 and 55330-S9450 for the self leveling kit? No air hoses or wiring?

looks like its a way better plan to get it for the $795 from the factory

I would not gamble that just yet. Because we are not able to see the type of device this is we can not make that call. Could be similar to a Gmc magnetic ride control leveling device, could be Pneumatic pressure.

I posted the above information because a few of us were after part numbers.

Obviously. I’m guessing that the cost to replace the parts minus the cost of our factory parts wasn’t to far off in difference

@Dadsbadback got the photos. Looks like it matches yours.

Did they give you any other photos?

I’d like to know what I am missing. It obviously says gas filled shocks but they are also auto leveling?
