Got a note from my dealer about a HUMMER happening near Hot Springs Arkansas on 01APR06. Is anyone here going? Anyone ever been to the Superlift Vehicle Park? Bout a 3 1/2 hour drive for me.....wondering if it's worth it.

BbyHmmr 03-22-2006 01:05 PM

It is definetly worth it!!!! I have been and it is tons of fun! I am sure I will be there I alsways go. Did you buy from Sunrise?

Edd 03-22-2006 01:24 PM

Yes, I did buy at Sunrise.

I don't have any UCP...do you think it's something I need at the park? I wish I could get the RC lift before going.

PARAGON 03-22-2006 01:45 PM

Can someone find out how many trucks are going.

Our local Jeep club is going to be there that weekend, so I might try to come also.

Edd 03-22-2006 02:21 PM

The note I got from the dealer says to RSVP. I just called him and he says normally they get 15 to 20 trucks. He says it is only the second one since the H3's came out so they are interested to see how many H3er's show. They say it's a good time. I think I'll go.

BbyHmmr 03-22-2006 03:07 PM

Good because i am going to be there as well!

bmoser1 03-22-2006 03:09 PM

I was actually thinking of making a trip a little later this spring, but if there is a HAPPENING that is going to be there, I may be game. Does anyone have a phone number for Sunrise to RSVP. I too do not have UCP, is it a must?

BbyHmmr 03-22-2006 03:16 PM

No the UCP isn't really needed there at all. Here is the link to a forum I posted last time I was there. http://elcova.com/groupee/forums/a/t...1/m/7091009841
There contact number Phone (901) 333-8000

Takes me about 2 1/2 hours to get to my dealer, but everytime I've gone to a Happening its been a blast. It's worth the trip!

Edd 03-22-2006 06:07 PM

BbyHmmr....thinking on bringing my dog (not slang for my cool friend, a four legger)....you think it would be a problem in the park?

Hope you won't make funna me still running stock 33 tires.

BbyHmmr 03-23-2006 01:06 PM

No the dog will be fine there, I couldnt really imagine why it would be a problem.
I was actually the only H3 with bigger tires on the trip last time and everyone did well!

PARAGON 03-23-2006 01:48 PM

I'm not making it but there will be some Jeepers from here that will be there that whole weekend.

Good, at least I'll get a chance to test out my towing capability.

bmoser1 03-28-2006 11:09 PM

Its getting close Who's making it?

Edd 03-31-2006 02:29 PM

Ahhh.....Friday at last. Next stop...axle deep mud!

PARAGON 04-04-2006 05:18 PM

Ok, I heard that a bunch of trucks broke and one went on a roll-back. (of course this is coming from Jeepers)

But, where's the pics and story.

HummerNewbie 04-04-2006 05:58 PM

Yeah, all the talk leading up to it and nothing to show us

The trip was great. Yea, two H2s broke tie rod ends but I'm not sure what a "roll-back" is. Anyway, here are a few pictures of the trip.

Here is the group taking off.

The first H2 to break their tie rod end right the middle of the difficult part.

I just happen to be the next one waiting to go up after the H2 has dug some nice holes.

A little closer shot

HummerNewbie 04-05-2006 02:22 PM

Thanks for sharing the pics. The H3 in the pic along the power lines looks like it has a winch. Do you know if it does and if so, any info or pics of it?

All in all, it was a great trip. I don't have any pics of the second H2 that broke though. Definitely have to make another trip up there though. Maybe we can get more of the forum members to join us this time.

By the way Rough Country was there with both the 5in lift and the 3in lift. I think I may have convinced the wife of the necessity of the 5in lift after she saw it. Here are some pictures of them.

Yea, the green one with the winch is actually the Rough Country 3in lift h3 they had there. It has a tmax winch on the front. I'll try and find a pic for ya.

In this pic, the yellow is the 5in lift, the green behind it is the 3in lift and the black and blue ones are the stock adventure pkg height.

I don't have a pic of the front of the green one. But the setup is identical to the yellow 5in lift. just a different TMax winch.

bmoser1 04-05-2006 02:32 PM

The winch mount is going to be offered from Rough Country. It is a simple design of 1/4 steel between the two tow hooks and it has the "waffle" look of the front lower grill. It looks good.

Here is a better pic from Edd of the front of the green H3.

I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE! I WANT ONE!

I want that lift (either 3" or 5") and that winch setup (in the zero bling 10,000# model). I heart that truck!

HummerNewbie 04-05-2006 03:14 PM

The Yellow RC with 5" lift looks like a monster with those tires. How did they perform?

PARAGON 04-05-2006 04:28 PM

I'm diggin the yellow 3 minus the chrome. I'm sure with hard wheeling there is still some rubbing issues but the Baja Claws look pretty wicked on there.

Sewie 04-06-2006 03:09 AM

So the 3" lift is a reality. Schweeet!!!

bmoser1 04-06-2006 03:17 AM

yup, it is a reality
