Default H1 capabilties

Does any one have a good link for all the spec capabilities both out of the box and with proper modifications for the original HMC2?
Just picked up a 1994. Wanted to know beak over angles, approach and departure angles, fording depth stock and with proper snorkel, exhaust, etc.

Also want to understand how to effect locking of the diffs, drive properly when not all 4 tires are touching ground, setting up for sand dunes, ice, snow, etc,
Sulphur level acceptability in the fuel - in short everything to be all the h1 owner I can.
Thanks.

Locking the diffs is done by a process known as Brake throttle modulation or BTM. To do this you firmly push in the brake pedal( almost all the way done ) and slowly raise the RPMs until the truck starts to overcome the holding power of the brakes. By doing this you trick the truck into acting like all 4 wheels have ground traction. Instead of sending all your power to the spinning wheel this will cause power to be distributed to all four wheels. Once you are out of BTM situation resume normal driving. You can initiate BTMing at anytime so unlike lockers you can actually be in the no go or locker situation when you start to BTM.
