You're confusing the H3 with the H2. H3 are just psuedo H2's. We just have a stationwagon.
unfortunetly for h2 owners, a well equipped h3 will go more places than an equally equipped h2 will......lemme have it shorty

just curious, what is the average speed on a clover leaf? 35-40 mph. i don't understand why your tires would be sqealing at almost twice the speed.

I found this and was going to put it on my Dodge before I got rid of it. Looks effective, though they don't have one for the H3 but do have one for the Canyon, so I wonder if if the GMC is close to the H3 setup.

First of all, you guys need to be aware that offroad vehicles use undersized sway bars for a resaon. The reason is so they dont limit your articulation. Go to the Toyota site and read their FJ specs/explanation of why they do this and you will understand.

If you Hummer does not go offroad and is a pavement princess, then go ahead and install beefier sway bars.

Ultimately, the best option would be to have thicker sway bars with quick disconnects.

What you say makes sense..specially a quick disconnect sway bar. I don't expect to do any rock climbing. Just maybe some grassey knolls but I would like to reduce the lean in everyday driving.

it's not as much fun when you ask for it - dik.

i could be in a new FJ and leave your redneck a$$ behind on any terrain - you'd be too worried about damaging those sissy blinkers you put on your truck . . . . . .
