Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

I have a 2006 H3 manual adventure and a 2007 H3 auto base to run around in while i add 4 ft of frame and the back half of a 2004 H2 to my 2005 H2 Lux. I seen several and thought might as well try doing one myself. Will be the only one in WV.

My friend here in the UK did the same all credit to him.

One thing I recall is it's tricky balancing the brakes at the rest, something to bear in mind....

I am using a 7000 lb capacity trailer axle without brakes. Axle will mount using a 4 link suspension with air bags. Will post updates.
