Yep, it has a bit of a nose down look to it from factory I think .. Cranking em will force the front end up X amount based on how many turns on the t-bars.

Here's my humble opinion. I actually like the stock stance of both the H2 and the H3. It's just not one of those things that I feel needs to be changedunless I decide to get bigger wheels/tires and even then only if you have to.

Just keep in mind that when you add larger tires it will affect your gas mileage. I lost 4 mpg when I put on my 35" mud grapplers.

My T-bars are cranked almost 4 turns and the truck is level front to rear to the naked eye. In actuality, the rear is still 3/4" higher than the front.

Kind of makes the truck look more like a little H2

BTW..... I love the quote by Shortbus: A rolling brick is still a rolling brick.

How true!

voodoo, your mileage probably isn't that far off from what it was before, since the bigger tires have thrown off your odometer, speedometer and trip computer. hopefully soon someone will come out with a programmer that you can use to adjust for different tire size. there are other threads here that go into a bit more detail on it, but the bigger circumference changes everything. if you want to feel better about your new mileage numbers, just talk to importkiller - you'll feel better after hearing what he's getting for mileage.[8D]

rollin' in the shortbrick . . . . .
