Re: Assessing value 1992 H1
I dont know how well a 3 speed transmission would do on a truck that heavy, man times have changed with 6 , 7 , and 8 speeds out there now.

The tranny doesn't have overdrive, so it handles the truck just like the 4 speed with no top gear. I have a 92, and it is absolutely wound up at 55-60, I'm always waiting for it to shift into 4th, yet it never does. Ideal cruising speed is 40-45 mph. when offroading, which is all this truck is good for, 3 speed is perfect.

Re: Assessing value 1992 H1
A 4l80-E can be added in one desired. To make it easiest you buy a manually controled trans (no computer), then in stall the shifter out of a 94 and up H1.

Re: Assessing value 1992 H1
$20-25k is fair for that truck by the sounds of it... if you are in the Denver area find other "experienced" hummer owners and ask them to look at the truck with you. Dave Breggin is in CO (I believe Littleton)...
The '92s had very few electrical issues compaired to the TD's and were much simpler. However, the 3spd was not so good for highway jaunts, the 6.2L NA is just strong enough to move the truck down the road but you can find restrictions off-roading (at least I did)....
Besides, it would be a great truck to modify the drivetrain in and update it ;-)
