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.

Driving H2 into remote places ( spare parts lost )

I have personally rebuilt 4l80e

its one of the best transmissions created,
but swapping into the H2 is not the right choice for multiple reasons,

then you open a can of worms,
different size drive shafts,
different transfer case,
different splines,
different shift linkage,
different bell housing
different shift ratios
different different different

should I go on ?

I can easily upgrade rebuild 4L65 to be as strong or even stronger than STOCK 4L80e

Excellent, thank you! Didn't want to disassemble mine to get a measurement..... Easier to just fabricate it and install it (if you don't mind me copying your patent pending design)

haha
I don’t mind at all sir.

once you get the shift lever out it’s very easy to cut the bolt in size, drill the hole and weld it back on the lever.
and to take the lever out itself is super easy.💪

Lol, you're quite the photographer

Nothing better than forum postings with photos.

As for your transmission temperatures..... Can't recall if you upgraded to the aluminum radiator or not..... But that should help quite a bit with the transmission temperatures as the passenger side of the tank runs a lot cooler than the OEM. The OEM radiator is borderline suitable in hot climates. A good three or four core all aluminum makes a big difference.

A couple weeks ago, I coincidentally had mine off while replacing what they call the neutral switch. It's that behemoth of a switch the mounts over that shaft for the shift lever, telling the ECM and BCM all sorts of things to operate several functions. I was looking at that plastic bushing I was planning on coming up with an alternative because it popped off and on way too easy. It was literally just a couple days and you posted your fix! Talk about perfect timing....

Open your bottle of Adderall. Wait however long it takes to take effect. Then a Valium if it's been prescribed to you. Then rethink your communication skills, or rather the lack thereof. It will make the world a better place

yes i definitely changed the radiator to 3 row unit, it’s absolutely beast, I was going up that 15 mile hill from Baker Ca to Vegas and temperature of the water didn’t pass a point over 190.
that stretch of the road is engine killer, trucks barely maintain 30 Mph at 100 degrees outside.
H2 was going up at 75.

I bought it from Evil energy, that’s name of the company I got the radiator from.

Oh yes, I recall you posting that earlier. Excellent choice on the radiator. I didn't take a close look at the OEM radiator I pulled out back when I replaced it, but it struck me as extremely thin. Probably just a single core. That was the same for our Escalade as well.... The OEM radiators are the bare minimum I think.
