Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Personally I think a 6 inch lift is too much. The 4 inch lift from Rancho is perfect. Throw on some 38s and you have an inch and a half more than you had stock.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I think fabtech and rancho are pretty similar as far as the amount of lift. I think my truck sits up more than just 4". I haven't measured that but my truck seems taller for sure, course I am running keys and a 1.25" coil spacer in the rear. But overall that should pick my truck up about an inch. I think either lift is good whatever you choose! Fabtech will probably be sliiiightly taller, but other than that..not much difference.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
well of course yours sits more than 4"...your running spacers on the lift  and running 38" tires will give you more height also. running a 35 would give you a 4" lift with the rancho. but running 37's will give you 1 more inch and 38's will give you 1.5" more, and 40's will give you 2.5" more height.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I measured mine the other day to see if I could fit in the car wash. I'm just under 7'. Not counting roof racks. But I'll remeasure to confirm.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Gotcha..I also measured from the driver side, directly in the middle of the truck, to the ground. I think before I was sitting approx. 6'8", if that measurement was true, then I'm 7" taller. So that would make sense that the rancho is 4", because the other 3" came from the tires. But just measure yours and see what happens. I'll remeasure mine too.

You know, I test drove (for 2 hours) a Porsche Cayman Coupe this last summer. Now, by no means am I comparing that to any of the ?supercars? that are listed above but I have to say, Porsche has it right... that car (like most of their cars) is a DRIVER?S car.
The ergonomics, the firmness of the shifter, the handling, comfort of the seat, etc, etc would allow someone to run that car for hours at the track and not be fatigued.
I?m not saying that the other manufacturers aren?t like that (I?ve only driven a couple of gallardos and murcielago so I have no experience in supercars) but I love the way Porsche builds the car around the driver.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I've thought about it but I'd have to do the tail guards too which isn't out of the question. Ive concidered it

Tis cool... no disrespect to your ride, I just think the black guards on your black would look cool as shiet.

I agree with Mark, although I like either way. The chrome looks pretty cool as well. But all black would be pretty awesome. I think eventually I'll put a black OEM guard on mine, just to add to the stormtrooper look.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
There's a lot of things I've thought about. But not a lot that I actually want to do right now. I want to get the black part re powdercoated. It's starting to chip a bit. But this trucks done for this year.

The one pic looks funny.... your truck is hammered with salt and snow remains yet your front wheel looks brand new... lol.
Great looking truck, that's the only H2 I've seen with dual exhausts that I liked.
