Re: ENGINEERS FOR Hall give tips for 4x4 H3 mods
Crystal clear now....thanks 
Has anyone on the board done a bodylift to accomdate their 35's ?
I'd like to hear about it. I think I mentioned it a while ago, but it was brought to my attention that I would not be able to now, unless I wantyed to change everything back bumpers etc....
I think it would be cool. Not sure that it's necessary tho. |

Re: ENGINEERS FOR Hall give tips for 4x4 H3 mods
I just don't see the point of a body lift on an H3. The main purpose is to allow clearance for the tires. We can already fit 35's fine the way it is.

About the only thing in their list I'd be interested in is a front locker. And maybe a set of 35's for Moab use.

Re: ENGINEERS FOR Hall give tips for 4x4 H3 mods
I love the look of the rod hall Hummer.
They did some custom suspension work up front. The body lift would only help if you had more suspension travel than stock right? It wouldn't give you more ground clearance, and if you are already getting full suspension travel with only a little bit of rubbing I don't see how it would help.
When I get 35's I would definitely want the higher spring rate torsion bars, the fox shocks, and the newer, stronger tie rods.

I like the side mirrors too. Less likely to get snapped off by branches

Re: ENGINEERS FOR Hall give tips for 4x4 H3 mods
A lot of Chevy Colorado drivers have done the rear spring over axle conversion... Looks very simple to do...My H3 is my daily driver so its kinda hard to tackle a mod like that...
