Driving H2 into remote places ( spare parts lost )
Hummer H2For 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.
Driving H2 into remote places ( spare parts lost )
Your thread is basically the off topic lounge for this site due to low traffic lol
I like the actual humvees tho, you never said if they were all one truck in three colors or if you actually own three h1 or... Some combination?
Does anyone here like... Have all the cool raw data like GM CDs, schematics, measurements, wiring diagrams... For the Hummer Diaspora?
This is a niche community for a very limited brand, literally every vehicle is single generation limited run and they only make one at a time lol...
When I get done with my current project, Im kinda currently leaning towards getting a clean H3, a copart Canyon with a blown engine/trans, and a complete rolling h1 chassis of the Auctionworld.Gov places or whatever... Like with the trans but no engine...
Take the Canyon body and stick on the complete running h3, (did the h3 come with the 4200?), lower it, and install prerunner glass for a widebody awd syclone thing with a turbo4200
Then take the clean h3 body with an 8.1 and a blower, and drop it on the complete h1 chassis, with a predator long travel
I guess my syclone has a salvage title then if Im not careful...
But I want both things and at least half of that project is very straight forward lol...
Now you can see why I wanna bug someone with GM internal level intel lol

I have 9 H1 Hummers, 3 of them visible in this picture.

LOVE MY H2 ❤️
Here it is, I fixed the shifter cable bushing issue,
military cotter pin style,
I cut a bolt exact diameter of the shifter cable bushing
I drilled small hole for the cotter pin
then I ground off the end piece of the lever end where it was supposed to clip on to the bushing,
I welded the bolt to the lever,
then I cut the bolt to size needed
and here is the result.
What diameter bolt did you end up going with? I've got a couple metal lathes where I could turn something down to the right diameter. Think I'll go ahead and follow your lead on this, proactively eliminating that plastic bushing

Proactively remove the 4l60 first, then youve only gotta make ONE of these 🤣
They came from the factory with a small power steering cooler, it's on the front of the radiator, upper driver side. For what you have in mind, I would probably go with a larger one than OEM. There's plenty of room there to do so.
Sounds like yours was a garage Queen like mine.... Although I'm at just over 100,000 miles on a 2003 model.
The factory exhaust usually exits right behind the passenger rear tire.... Tucked in so it doesn't interfere with the rear approach angle. It is common on aftermarket exhausts for people that don't go off-road, to have the pipes exit out the rear. In your case you want to stick to the OEM setup clearly.
The one weak point I would be the most concerned about is the heater hose quick connect at the firewall. You're pretty much past the life expectancy of the OEM plastic connectors, which get brittle with age and simply snap off, empty now your entire cooling system rather quickly. I completely eliminated the factory quick connects.... You can remove them and simply slide 3/4-in silicon heater hose over the heater core nipples at the firewall with standard clamps. Proven reliable for decades. The only other thing you need in that scenario is for one hose, a 3/4 inch to 5/8 in straight adapter to match the size coming out of the water pump on that one hose.
The H2 is probably the best equipped vehicle for your purposes, as you know. While the H1 excels even better off road, the creature comforts of the H2 are definitely something to consider.... Definitely a priority for my wife, LOL
you remember in one of my posts I said someone added external cooler?
I was wrong it was the factory little cooler that you mentioned and it’s not cooling the transmission properly
there is a 15 mile 6% grade from Baker Ca to Vegas that stretch is nightmare for trucks,
it was 95 outside on Wednesday and my transmission temperature was 240 going up that hill.
