this is some impressive DIY work. i wish i had the balls to do this. i would say knowledge too, but i think you would throw the hanes book at me like what was posted earlier.....

im just scared with all the little parts, because i normally end up with "Spare parts" after i work on things that arent suppose to have spare parts..

I thought that the fork was supposed to melt before the race comes apart?

I still got to take more stuff apart, but today I made a step forward

-Trace horn problem. DONE!


Tracing the problem up the wire harness.






I changed this piece before.



Spindle.




I changed it for a new one, just forget to take ALL of the old one out!



Rust everywhere. WTF.

Front diff got installed today. Piece of advice to any one doing this, power wash the undercarriage before reassembly!!!
Holly crap how can a truck be so rusted with that amount of grease underneath it.





Well deserved!

Putting that front diff back in single handedly is a real chore! lol. I had to do it by myself on my back in my driveway when I put my locker in.

Got the TC parts this week, thanks to Brodie at http://www.ridgedemon.com/
My chain looks same as new one, no more play or wear then the old one. But I'll still change it, we all know it would break the second I would put it back together otherwise.


My new (to me) mirror got here this week to.
This one besides the obvious damage, the fold motor is bad.






All done can't test it, the battery is dead





Tomorrow is the big day slapping the TC back together! I sure could use a manual for it :winkie:, anyone...anyone...

Very nice. I have already decided that when my Hummer is old and tired it is going to be rebuilt/restored and kept going. Why spend the money on a new rig, when nothing else will compare. Spend it on the one that's paid for and make it the way you want it.

After working on it, I must say that this truck looks like it was build as a 3500 truck. If it wasn't for the plastic interior it's pretty solid truck.

Unfortunately the A/C does not work it also doesn't want to switch between outside and inside air, the controller goes a little crazy when I select that. Don't the unit got to be programed by the dealer? I think I read that somewhere.
