I thought all SUTs came with those rails on the bed sides...just like all H2s come with the ones on the roof.

Yep, I think all SUTs come with those bed rails.

Thanks everyone for the links. I did a lot of searching on this forum last night. I may be able to get the mirror fixed under an extended warranty if I can get it transferred. Otherwise the posts guruerror linked will come in handy.

I found a complete storage lid with lock and key on ebay for $50 so that worked out well. I'm still trying to find black hood latches and hood handles, but I may just Line-X them along with the bumpers.

Yes, the tires are in great shape. They're the same BFG AT KO's I have on my Titan, even the same 315/70/17 size. Those tires are near shot now and have 60K miles on them!

My other immediate projects:

Swap coils for airbags (parts already ordered)
Move the Yakima Load Warrior from the Titan to the H2 (have to wait on this or I won't be able to get it in the garage and on the lift to do the coils)
Rack for the bed (I gave up a lot of space from the Titan and will need something for camping and mountain biking)
Move the Pioneer AVIC out of the Titan and over to the H2
Move my air horns off the Titan and over to the H2
CB and spare tire antenna mount

Coil springs and isolators instead of the rear air suspension that is prone to issues.

Egan,

As far as the roof rack goes, I have posted this info before on here, so I found it and copied it to this thread............

The H2 roof rack locks are made by Thule. I just ordered a spare key for my H2 in case I lose it or break it. You can call them and order it or just go to their website at www.thule.com.

Their key numbers closely match the Hummers as Thules uses an "N" series while Hummers use the "E" series. So Thules N003 is the same as our E003 key. Thier cost was only around $2.50 each.

Hope this helps.
