H3 with Rough Country 5in lift and 37's

[hmer]

why can it be like this out of the factory

[GreenH3]

I would like to see a shot of that RC H3 parked next to an H2... or better yet, a Jeep Commander. LMFAO

Another question to throw out there...

I'm trying to figure out if you'd have to change the locker out for one that accepts a higher ratio gear OR if you're currently forced to get a set of "thick gears" made (maybe some already exist?) to regear an H3.

Is the rear locker in the 10 bolt rear axle an EATON model of the elocker? I could look up the model and see where the carrier gear break is and figure this out if I knew the model rear locker thats in the H3s? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

The differential is a newer variant of the Eaton 10 bolt. It doesn't use legacy gear dimensions.

So, what about adding a front E locker?

[nmikes]

Also about the front locker... will the half shafts be strong enough for this mod? Also nice winch setup... read up on that winch and they say its submergible... very cool.

Hey a quick question is the 2 grand cost quote with rear add-a-leavea or the new rear leaf spring packs?
I would definately stay away rom the add-a-leaves...


let me know

thnx.

And my question is do you retain the stock shocks, and if not are they included in the price?

[Nefarious]

I know this is an old topic, but I see the kits still aren't released for sale from their site yet. The yellow H3 is a monster!

[darebren]

What i wonder is if you can carry a 37", heck, even a 35" spare tire on the rear mount? seems it would hit the bumper and not fit in the mount??

[H3HUMMER]

Looks great what about the motor any upgrades to that for those tires.

35's fit on the rear carrier no problem. Don't have my truck so can't look to see if 37's would fit w/o moving the mount.

I came across the ebay link for the yellow h3 with the 37" wheels and it stated that they had to add a special bracket to the original carrier to get the 37" on it. It looks like 35's are the biggest the stock carrier can handle.

[H3HUMMER]

Just think all that weight of that tire on that back door.

[wpage]

Other spoke to the Speed/Odometer effect on wheel packages. Is there a fix as you upgrade to larger dimensions?

Sweet!
But, is it for looks? how does this lift perform off road?

The truck CLEARED THE H1 side of out track!! the H2's cant even make it over that!!!

That above is from earlier.

[Desert Dan]

I like the winch mount.

I wonder how the I 5 and front diff handle the 37's?

[reddevil]

I'M TOTALLY IN!!!!!!!!! THATS LOOKS INCREDIBLE!!!!

I have personally driven a stock H2 and my H3 over the "H1" wall at our dealership. just have to pick the right line.
