I'm cranking the keys to level it, 315s, 1in body lift, bumpers, roof rack, tint and eventually rims.

Just a thought, I noticed your front exterior A post covers are dull from the sun. I had the exact same problem.
I removed them (which is very easy, 2 Phillips head screws on each and pull off I believe) and sanded them. Then hit them with black paint.
Almost as good as new.

I would definitely level the front end. Doing that and putting 315's on it totally changes the look of it. I had a magnaflow catback on my 2008 and didn't really like it. I'm just keeping the stock exhaust on the 2007 I just bought. Definitely post pics as you go. Good luck!

Read this before you do anything - https://www.hummerforums.com/forum/h...ics-how-11428/

Next would be a Daystar 1" body lift - https://www.hummerforums.com/forum/h...le-pics-22788/

There are basically 2 lifts that are readily available for H3's, Rancho and Rough Country. Both are 4" lifts and run about $2500 for the parts and by the time you get new shocks and wheels with a different backspace, you'll spend another $1000 to $1500.


The first thing I would do is remove the side steps, unless some girl makes you keep them on.


Mine has just the torsion bar adjustment and the 1" body lift, on 315/75/16 Duratrac tires.

X2 for removing side steps....bought my h3 in december, took it wheelin for the first time early january, and bent the passenger side step pretty good. I took em off, and if nothing else, it looks taller without em.
