ordered lift.. what tires? ???

I'll explain why Truxx is junk, so pay attention as I dont have time to battle it out.

The stock shocks are limited in their travel, so that's why Truxx sells a cheap method to correct this once the TBs are cranked. Then they charge you more than longer travel shocks cost and throw in a set of keys that are not even needed. You can get all lots of adjustment out of the factory keys - more so than you will ever need!

Then, you end up with a "setup" where you ride-height is dictated by Truxx since you still have the same old crappy short-travel spec shocks. Like someone already pointed out, you need to use math to know what we are talking about here. It goes something like this:

-you extended the lower shock rod by pushing it upward into the shock body. Now, in order to get the ride-height at a level that is within the ride specs of the shocks, you have to set height based on what Truxx tells you to do. Be forewarned the front end has to be really cranked to fall within these specs. The reason for this is their design makes them create the bracket sooo tall that is has to raise it up high enough to clear the shocks' bolt over the control arm. Now, what Truxx does not tell you is that "since are are shoving the lower shock arm up into shock body sooner" you are going to bottom out the shock before ever hitting the OEM bump stop!!!!! Caution: big concern here unless you dont mind slamming all the weight of your H3 down on the shock all alone with no bump stop support!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is no known way to extend the H3 bump stops at this time!

Side benefits of the Cognito shocks are:
-you can set ride height where you ever want and still bottom on the factory bump stops.
-Since you cranked the ride height up and off of riding on the OEM stops, you can still wheel on one front wheel, collapse that wheel all the way to the OEM stop (since only one wheel would have most of the pressue on it) and then the opposing sides' wheel can droop all the way down until the maximum extended length of the Cognito shock! We are talking major offroad flexing capability here folks - much more than you had from the factory!
-Now, since you have much more travel, droop etc - your ride quality will be as good or better than it was from stock!

like previously mentioned - do the math - it all adds up
