Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I think fabtech and rancho are pretty similar as far as the amount of lift. I think my truck sits up more than just 4". I haven't measured that but my truck seems taller for sure, course I am running keys and a 1.25" coil spacer in the rear. But overall that should pick my truck up about an inch. I think either lift is good whatever you choose! Fabtech will probably be sliiiightly taller, but other than that..not much difference.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
well of course yours sits more than 4"...your running spacers on the lift :giggling: and running 38" tires will give you more height also. running a 35 would give you a 4" lift with the rancho. but running 37's will give you 1 more inch and 38's will give you 1.5" more, and 40's will give you 2.5" more height.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
haha..i know that! ;) My truck measures 7'3" I think from the top to floor..measure yours like that and lets see our differences (don't measure in the roof racks). Yours should be about an inch lower I would think ;)
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I measured mine the other day to see if I could fit in the car wash. I'm just under 7'. Not counting roof racks. But I'll remeasure to confirm.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Gotcha..I also measured from the driver side, directly in the middle of the truck, to the ground. I think before I was sitting approx. 6'8", if that measurement was true, then I'm 7" taller. So that would make sense that the rancho is 4", because the other 3" came from the tires. But just measure yours and see what happens. I'll remeasure mine too.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Had to add my twin to the mix! Here's Jerrh2's '06 SUT!
  Now sitting on a 6" Fabtech with fat 38X15.50 Toyo's..also added the SIG STARR black projectors, black grille, and LED's all around. Looks sick man! Would love to have more pictures! |

You realize that's Jeff's H2 (on FB: Hummer Modified) and is in China now, and looks like this.  |

The first one is great, nicely done... the second two is just toooo much. They needed to stop about $5K earlier. Quote:
That was always my favorite H2... love the color, love the mods, very nicely done. If that is the same H2 (now in China), they should have left it in the States, it didn't look like crap then. Mark |
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
It still looks good to me in china, and I have him as a friend on FB actually. But it definitely looked better in the states! One of my favorite H2's without all the extra crap on it.

Finally got some new pictures. For some reason, the side shot makes it look like the truck leans back, but it actually has a more forward rake.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Sweet!
We're discussing fender flares in another thread, and I have a question about the E&G flares. In the rear where the mud flap is supposed to attach (which I noticed that you did not install...bravo) is the end of the rear flare open-ended? Could water and mud get up in there? |
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Yes, it's open.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Man that looks so clean just white and black!:beerchug:

One more question, I’m assuming you have to drill holes in the hood and rear qtr, right? I’ve always liked those flares, I just didn’t want to drill holes. (funny being in the bodyshop business, you’d think I wouldn’t mind...lol) Thanks, Mark |
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Yes, you have to drill holes. My flares have actually cracked around a few of the screws, but only a little. But the cracks haven't gotten worse over the last few years.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
God your truck looks amazing..thanks for adding to the thread! Well done sir, well done.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Sorry bud, I hate having to open up attachments.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Thanks for all the compliments. And thanks for posting the pictures! I can never figure out how to do that.
The flares work better than stock, obviously, but with the higher offset wheels, wider tires, and the lift kit, you still get stuff thrown up on the side. |
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
So I'm screwed either way? Does it still get on your hood? There's just no stopping the mess I guess. But they did help a lot......right? I just need to restrict the mud a bit. I'm probably not gonna stop it but hopefully more than I am now.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I've gotta ask..what's going on with your cab lights?
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
They do help, but how much will depend on wheel offset, tire width, etc.
I assume you're talking about the rear two cab lights being red? They were all smoked at one point, then I backed into my garage trying to inch in to unload the bed, cracked one, and put the red ones back on. I wasn't going to buy a whole kit of smoked for two lenses. I pulled the bulbs out years ago, anyhow... |
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Well I'm running toyo 38x13.5 on a 20x10 with a 4.5" backspacing

I must have not experienced the flinging you're talking about..course mine has been nasty for awhile and the only time I remember it flinging stuff everywhere was when I deliberately took it mudding. But as far as around town driving I haven't really noticed it on mine..same as always. Try the E&G flares though! It would look great with your rig. |

I'm assuming you bought the Recon lights? Mine leaked when I first put them in, fitment was terrible, had to silicone the living mess out of them because it was fixin to drown my nav dripping in through the dome light in the center ;( Recon did a sh*tty job with the cab lights as far as fitment.. |
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I can't remember the brand. I got them about 4 years ago. But, yeah, mine leaked, too, so I had them sealed.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
They look exactly like mine so I'm guessing they are Recon. Hey how hard was it to change your door handles?
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I didn't change my door handles. They were black when I bought the truck.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Ahh..
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
So I'm pretty sure I got flipped off today..couldn't tell for sure but I could have sworn I saw the hand gesture through this douche bags heavily tinted windows. I had all my windows down just minding my own business and this guys rolls around going the opposite way in a jacked up Tacoma with one gay a$$ bumper on the front. Some tough guy right there. It sort of pissed me off, especially since he did it through his tint and in that piece of sh!t he called a truck.
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
Trashy... Don't worry about him
|
Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
I just thought it was funny that the moron flipping me off for driving a lifted hummer was cruising around in a Japanese V6 pushin lifted sh!tbox. Haha. Must be the REAL offroader.

Re: LIFTED HUMMERS THREAD!!
