My 06 H3 has adv pkg. On the 4x4 control panel, it has the rear locker button that is the second button from the right and first from the right is the traction control button. The picture post from JGBB04 shows a rear locker and front locker from the right of the panel. When I had spoke to a Hummer rep they told me the 09's H3 come with the rear and front lockers as well (i was hoping 06's and up came with rear and front lockers). I went to a GM dealer and they pulled a build list of my vehicle with a vin number.

You would think that H could make these buttons just a little bit more understandable , like on this 09 , why can't they have "Rear Lock - Front Lock" ?
When you first look at it , all you see is 4HI 4HI 4HI and God knows what without reading the manual

If your still not sure take a magnet and try and stick it to the front pod , I bet it falls off
Somewhat true, but not actually all true.

Yes, 09 H3s with either the "offroad" or "adventure" packages will be equiped with the before mentioned front and rear lockers.

theyour comment on the front Diffs:
08 H3 Alphas with either the "offroad" or "adventure" packages will have the cast iron diff and the base and Lux (without the V8) will have the alum. front diff.
09 H3s with either the "offroad" or "adventure" packages will be equiped with cast iron diffs. Regardless of an I5 or V8.
09 H3s base and Lux will stil have the alum. front diff.


I hope this clears up some of the confusion.


P.S. there are also different thicknesses of the half shafts on some models!

Let's look at the BIG picture. 2007 T Case and rear locker buttons, same as 2006 and 2008. In 4Lo lock, rear diff locked.

No it was my mistake... have to have the eyes checked... It only has the rear locker button... but I assume it's still the adventure package?

2008 did not have front lockers from the factory.

Here is a pic from my 07 with the rear (and only) locker engaged, it has a little "x" between the rear wheels. The button farther to the right is to shut off Traction Control and/or StabiliTrack, it has squiggly lines behind the rear tires.
