No H3 should ever leave GM factory without them. WOW what a difference.
The ride is smooth and while high speed off-roading on gravel trails - I'm speechless.

I realy think this should be the #1 recommended improvmet (if such a list ever existed) for the H3.

Do you mind me asking how much you paid for them?

Well,
It's a bit complicated.

My After market parts supplier first installed the Rancho shocks. The rear ones were O.K, but 2 pairs of front rancho just could not hold on (they broke after a few days even whennot off-roading).

So now I got both front and rear Fox shocks (the rear have the externaloil barrel)for the price of only the 2 front ones (about 810$ for both of them)

The cost here (Israel) for the full set is around 2,000$

I just checked thier website, listed at $225 a piece. $2000 must be an import cost.

I know that.
The kit should be around 1,000$. Every part for a car imported into Israel has 100% Tax on it.

This is unlless you import a whole car. Then the taxes are almost 200%. The price here for an H3 is around 90,000$ [:@]

Sound sweet Haim!!!! What, no pics??

I was wondering how those do on a day like today when it is FRIGGIN COLD! It is 9 degrees F. and wind is 21mph, gusting to 30. Makes ya want to stay in by the fireplace. The Fox have an oil reservoir and that oil would be might cold and stiff today?

Hi Doc
Well, in order for the temp here to get this low, allot more pepole would have to drive Hummers, so global warming would happen much faster and then temp would dropto these levels

Here are some pictures I took.

It's like I'm driving a totaly diffrent truck now (for the better)
