Offroad Newbie
I have a stock 2006 H3 and I want to do some offroading ( i.e. Moab, other insane offroading locales) and I was wondering what I needed to get in order to go and do this. What type of tires, wheels, other accessories? I have chrome wheels, btw.

Re: Offroad Newbie
you need rocker protection , under carriage protection , and some 35's .
then just ditch the steps and you are all set
then you can line-X all that chrome

Re: Offroad Newbie
thank you, you guys
NEOCON1, I have a few questions for you. I have always admired your rig because it is so clean and simple, without too much offroad gadgetry. You say 35's, ok. How much of a lift did you put on it? **Please bear with me as I only have a basic understanding of tech stuff on cars, I am more of an expert on which car is what, performance, etc.** Also, where did you get the rocker protection and under carriage protection? Which brand do you recommend, if any?
Thanks a lot,
Luke

Re: Offroad Newbie
i have not lifted the truck , it just looks bada$$
the factory under carriage protection is fine , i think its great for the price and same with the rocker protection . we have done some pretty radical stuff with just the factory protection . check online and gm parts direct for the best deal . its been almost 2 years since i bought mine , someone here should know where to get the best prices at now .
hey partsguy , hook the newbie up man
