You still located in oahu? Born in Kaimuki, raised in Pearl City, and now living in Ewa Beach. I knew a few people who worked at T&C Surf - Stacey display designer and Marcey graphic designer - not sure where they are now. That would look cool leaving one side dirty but I think the Hawaii Convention would have a cow if I tracked any dirt on their floors - LOL |

The T bars are perfect, before the lift I had it jacked up like mad but with the lift it's fine. As for the steering knuckle and bump stops it seems to be fine as well. My H3 is a daily driver and brought it on the freeway and got it up to 75 and to me it rides better than stock! It hugs the road better, maybe because the wider wheel base because of the wider rims and backspacing - not sure what it is but it does feel good on the freeway. |

No, I live in FL. I dealt wiht Graig and his wife and I mostly talked with Stacey and a few others when they would come to the main land for trade shows. They have a factory here in FL, I worked from there, as the Team Mgr for the East coast. I think that was the best job a person could have. Travel, surf, chill etc.. all paid by T&C. |

Re: MY LIFTED H3!!!
I had to get spacers because the control arm was so close to my wheel you couldn't even fit your pinky finger between the wheel and the control arm!! It was about 1/16 away from the wheel. This is due to the backspacing of my wheels - should've got less backspacing...
Not only did the wheel spacer help distance the tire from the control arm but it gave my H3 a wider beefier look. Here's the before and after pics: Before - no lift, 16 x 8 with 35's, tbars cranked like crazy! ![]() After - lift, 17 x 10 with 35's, 1 1/4 spacer: ![]() ![]() Had my friend over at Goodyear install my spacers and torque it for me. No more worrying about the COG (Center of Gravity) due to the lift, the wider wheel base hugs the roads now ;) |
Re: MY LIFTED H3!!!

That was one of the knocks on this lift from early on. So I'll ask again. What is the backspacing on your wheels? |

I did find it strange that Rancho recommends 4.5" BS on 16", 17", 18" wheels. 5" BS on 20" & larger wheels. I have 17 x 10 and the 4.5 BS came too close that's why I added the spacers. |

Thanks. That's what I figured. |
Re: MY LIFTED H3!!!
What is your new ground clearance with the lift? The before and after pics don't really show the difference. How did you like your MT/R's while you had them? They sure looked great!

Re: MY LIFTED H3!!!
Are those wheels the new 7189?

![]() ![]() As for ground clearance it didn't change, but once I add 37's it should clear about 2 more inches...but still thinking about it. ;) |
