What do you guys think so far???

On the tires i really dont know what to do, im thinking keeping the same original h3 rims and getting a bf goodrich mud terrain km2 285 75r16, but i think i want more high......... but i dont know if my car will require change of gears, anybody knows what size do the luxury pkg has??? I think its 4.1 but read on the hummer homepage that some of them came with 4.56...


Anybody with any recomendations????

Greetings everyone!!!

 

go with 305-70-16s theyre the same height (33 in ) but just a tad bit wider, the dealership can also program your speedo to the bigger tires for $40.

 

Save your money on the lift/leveling kit. You can have the torsion bars adjustment turned to level the front end. You would be looking for 24" from the center of the axle to the bottom of the fender. The money you saved from not buying the leveling kit will help buy a set of Bilstein Cognito shocks and extended bumpstops from Trail Duty.

Also, buy a set of Bilstein 5100 series shock for the rear....

...and you are set. As a precaution, you should have the front alignment checked.

Boulder Accessories is having a sale on their bumper/winch combo. Heckuva deal.

Also, look into getting the rear axle skid plates.

As for tires, many guys have gone with 285/75-16 tires. With the 35" tires, acceleration, braking, and mileage will be affected somewhat. 33" tires are okay.

 

I agree with tackleberry 100%.
I also have the BA bumper with 9000lb winch. Very Happy. Cranking the torsion bars will do the job perfectly. Make sure you have it re-aligned afterwards and don't forget the new shocks, you will need them. Bump stops are not a must, but recommended. If you want the same "tilt" as factory, crank the front, then add drop shackles to the rear. Shackles are not really neccessary if you plan to "level".

As for the snorkle. They look killer. Most guys on this forum do perfectly well without them. They require cutting, which some folks cringe at. Plus you lose your radio antenna, Or at least your gonna have to relocate it.
Good luck.

 

Thanks a lot for the help, i will keep you informed!!!!!

 

What happend to the sale of the bumber with winch? Its over????
I was just going to buy it.....

 

Thorparts (thorparts.com) has a used one available. Check with them. No winch, though.
