So I’ve had my 07 H2 SUT now for one month and thought I’d post an update. The truck was a 1-owner H2 that was apparently garaged and VERY well taken care of. It has a bit over 120,000 miles and is in awesome condition.
I changed the transfer case, front diff and rear diff fluids. Changed the transmission filter and the 5-6 qts that requires. Also changed the engine oil and filter. Everything looked great - no burnt fluids or metal shavings. Now I have a starting point for my maintenance.
While I had it on the lift I checked for rust. Found a little near the back on the frame but inconsequential. Cleaned it up and put some POR15 on it.
Removed the running boards. I think it looks better and being 6’4” I have no problem getting in/out.
Although I saw no signs of leakage from the roof lights I replaced all of them and sealed everything up. Also replaced the headlights and polished the DRLs.
I’m impressed with the way it drives- very comfortable and rock solid. I had read negative reviews regarding its handling due to its size and weight but after decades of driving 1-ton Dually pickups the H2 feels like a sports car.
Being inexperienced at off-road driving I am taking that in baby steps. So far it has really amazed me at what it will do without even spinning a tire. I’m sure it will do MUCH more but not sure if I could. Yet. Bahahaha
Drive it regularly and have yet to see another H2 of any type on the road. Saw 2 H3s. I guess as far as production vehicles go the H2s are a bit rare, especially since they have not been made in many years.
Congrats, Would recomend delphi fuel pump. Will get much better fuel pressure. Once you change the ujoikg to spicer 1350 xc in the rear. Ride quality will be even better. Im doing the front u joints in a few days and will post how much more that improves ride quality.

Follow up on the front U joints, was another nice improvement. Replace your belts. Replace idler pulley and tensioner pulley. 2 hour job. Torque cv axle to 58 ft lbs too. Gl!
