.....from the posts, it sounds as if a lift, creates a harsh ride period. I would love to get some beefy 37's under there, with no problems. is it true the front end sits lower than the back stock ? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I've read quite a bit about lifting the H2 and with the exception of one recent (and I think, resolved) problem that was discussed here on the forum, other owners' experiences have for the most part been positive. Maybe I missed some posts?

You may have been reading about adjusting the torsion bars to create front end lift? Not sure if that's the case but that approach is known to stiffen the ride.

As for the front being lower than the back, that does seem to be a fairly common occurrence but it isn’t an absolute rule.

Quite a few people here run 37s with little or no rubbing, self included. Sure, I'd like to have a 2" lift so I don't run the tires into the top of the wheel well when hitting an unexpected dip in the trail and yes, I'd like to eliminate what little rubbing I do get on the right side when in a tight turn but those situations really aren't all that bad in my truck.

If your ultimate goal is to run 37s without problems (and the lift was/is an afterthought), that’s probably doable. That said, much like some trucks sit lower in the front and some don’t, some trucks with 37s rub on the sway bars and other places when other trucks, with the same wheels and tires, don’t. Just about all you can do it go for it.
