Ok just got back from my local hummer dealer, they said that the h3 base model does have a rear lock diff and that the only difference between the adventure and base is trim, etc. I thought the adventure had a few upgrades in suspension that the base doesnt have? But he said it may not be eaton but its def from factory. But anyways if I were to purchase the Eaton locker they said the cost would be around 440.00 for 4 hours of labor, so I said to play it safe 400-600 bucks if there was a major problem.

 

base has no locker and has a higher crawl ratio t-case....your dealer sucks!!!!

 

to prove that they have no clue.....an e locker will take more than 4 hours to install.

 

Thats what I thought I was like either I am stupid andblanked out on everything I know about hummers (which I didnt) or he didnt know what he was talking about, maybe I will call them one in indiana and see what they say.

An unrelated forum writ up on an Eaton Locker rebuild and good info on how to avoid destroying one. I found it interesting and pretty accurate. http://www.fullsizebronco.com/forum/...d.php?t=109143
