, whats next a 2WD H1 I don't think so! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I know of a couple of guys that have 2wd H1's. There is also a company that is rebuilding the current t-case to have more gears. I can't remember what additional settings will available but 2wd is one of them. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
I really don't understand why the F**K you would want a 2WD Hummer of any kind, that would be so damm stupid! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

The guy that first came up with it for the H1 (AFAIK) has a slip joint that he just pulls out so the front drive shaft is not being powered. It will still spin but it is not under load. The main advantage is MPG. Less wear and easier to turn are probably other reasons also.

Steve, I'm sort of opposite you --
I like the independent front suspension
of the H3, and in fact I really like the
looks and functionality of the IFS in both
front and rear as in the H1. Isn't there
any way Hummer could make an independent
suspension with excellent clearance like the H1
at a low price for the H4? Impossible?

It would be very cool to have something with it's own platform that would be a serious competitor to the Wrangler (preferably much better). I would definitely buy one. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It was a link I found on Hummer Network
http://www.rhinobuggies.com.au/
