NICE! I like it. What lift is that and how do you like it? How did it affect the handling and ride?

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Umm, this didn't give it away. ;)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Wow! that's a sweet ride. congrats on the new truck;)

nice looking 3, i've never been a fan of yellow but yours looks pretty good. i'm sure it will look even better with a few fresh coats of texas brown. looks like you could probably squeeze a few more inches of rubber under those fenders too.

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

As always JW nice ride!!!!!!!!! Need some shots of it with the Tigershark!!!

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Schweet!!!!!! Looking good!!! and mmmm...yellow.:D

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

nice rig, is it a Dual exhaust ?;)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

NICE!! From what I can see you got it with all the mods from the dealer. How much did you pay for it?? $$$$$!!

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

I think Sewie covered the lift. :p

I like the ride, a bit firmer than the adventure package, but cornering suffered a very small bit because of the additional height. The tires are actually quieter than the Duelers.

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Thanks Allan. Already with a yellow Vette in the garage, I was hesitant with the yellow, but the package looked good, and the deal was great. I wanted to get away from the dark color as well. My dark blue showed crap down the side just driving thru the alley. My thought is if it's covered in mud, it might as well be clean.

Get a Dane, you'll never think twice about it again, and regret not doing so sooner. Little Bevo is my 3rd one, greatest dog I've ever been around. He enters his 1st show next month. Just turned 6 months, 95 lbs.

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Thanks . . . but I'm not new. :)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

How's this??:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

:D :D I like what's in your garage!!!!!!;) ;)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Very nice truck. I'm sure it won't be clean long

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Congrats on the new ride. Very cool! :cool: :D

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Nice lineup I want to be on your team! hard to decide what to drive in the morning?

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Wow, with the lift it barely fits in the garage.

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

LOL Not really. The H3 has become my primary vehicle. I've gotten so use to the H3, driving the Vette is almost a PITA, but from time to time I suck it up, and take her out. :D

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

What's a Rancho? Is it like a Moab? ;)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Sweet Ride...
Excellent Lift!:) :)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Any specs on the wheels? I am assuming 16's with 35's? I like the width and fitment on the truck. any wheel specs would be great! thanks

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

nice looking 3!:cool:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

18's - 325/65/18 tires

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Thanks.

Hook 'em!! :D

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

welcome to the club :D :D :cool:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Sweet ride! But does the tie rod on the left look bent?
:confused:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Just the angle of the pic. I double checked, all is good. Thanks. :beerchug:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Revenge will be double good in Texas!:p :)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

:giggling: We'll see. :twak:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

How 'bout some pictures of it dirty now???;)

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

That would require rain, something sort of extinct around here these days. Don't worry, this purty thang WILL see some mud!! :perfect10s: :D

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Wow - very sweet H3!

Looking to get the same lift for mine, but have to wait for my office to move buildings in a few months, I got about 3 inches left to make it in our building garage at work and not really liking the idea of parking 'BONE' 3 blocks away :p

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Not sure how I missed your new H3, looks very cool :cool:

Congrats on number 2!!! :D

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Must be rough!!

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

I just read another thread where a guy was considering a lift, and a comment was made about not being able to offroad like he can now without the lift.

http://www.elcovaforums.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=20333

Simple question: Can I do the same offroading in this truck with the lift, as I did before with just the adventure package?? :confused:

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

Niiiche

Re: H3 #2 . . .
 

You can try. ;) :D

It was mentioned early on that with the lift, there were clearance issues with the steering components when aired down.

If you take it offroad, let us know how it works for you, what PSI you ran at, clearance between tire and steering knuckle, etc. And of course, pics. :D
