I just had my H3 leveled. I went with the rear end lowering kit. I contacted Yah-Ya-Hay & Off Road in Lewisville, TX. The parts, shipping and instillation ran about $300. Measuring from the ground to the undereside of the finder-well, the front is about 3/4" lower than the back. The ride is great and there are no handleing problems. If I have not measured it i would not have know it was not completely level. The look of the vehicle is still good with the space above the wheels.

I agree. When I figure out how to put them on here I'll do just that.

Under the text window where you type it says, "Click here to upload!" in blue. Click there and find the pic on your hard drive. If you click in the box next to the blue writing, it will put the picture in your post. Otherwise people have to open it as an attatchment.

I adjusted it last night. The bolts are very easy to adjust. I did one complete turn on each side. It raised it a little, but the difference is really in the handling. The front end seems tighter, and the H3 does not sway as much on a turn as it used to. I can definitely tell there is a difference, even though not dramatic. I may give it another half turn or so before I leave work today.

I have seen these on eBay alot but really don't understand where they go or what they do. If I had a factory manual I could figure it out, but just by looking underneath I can't really tell how or where you install these.

It is a half hour job to replace both of them (especially if you have an air wrench). The keys completly unload when you unscrew the adjusters, so you don't need any tools to hold the tension bar.
