Warn Winch Bumper Setup
If you like the winch bumper setup you could PM DRTYFN and ask him about his setup too. It's incredible.

Humgirl: You're 100% gutsier than the semi-male dorks who came out to berate rather than help. I'm sorry about your tough luck, but I respect you for pushing the limit. I think if I tried something like that, I'd have a fellow H2 along so if one of us got stuck, the other could help out.
Regarding the warranty: If you were just driving off road and something broke, that should be covered. Voiding a warranty generally takes place when you modify the vehicle [put in a super charger and break the transmission] or do something that the vehicle wasn't designed to do [towing more than the rated weight for the vehicle]. You were driving an off road vehicle off road. If I had to bet, I'd say the warranty should cover it. However, I'd try to wash all the mud off (especially underneath) before delivering it to the dealership. No sense in giving them too much to think about.
A post a month ago spoke of cleaning the undercarriage by parking the truck over a garden sprinkler and moving it every 2 hours.
Good Luck,
George SSSS

Sorry to hear about the troubles. All vehicles, regardless of make, are bound to have problems at one point or another, some at bad places and times. Nothing's perfect 
Anyway, this reminds me of an embarassing experience I had. I was over at a professors house in Mass. and there was like three feet of snow on the ground. Well, I parked in this dugout along the roadside, and when we got back out to the car, I had someone parked like a foot behind me, and snow a foot in front. So, I gunned it hoping for the best. Well, I got like five feet into the snowbank and then sank. We had to go back into the house full of UMass professors (who all worship the Prius) and explain the situation. Well, my friend had to blurt out "THERES A HUMMER STUCK OUTSIDE!!!" (I was just going to ask for a shovel and say a car was stuck). Anyway, a testimate to the H2, one branch stuck under the rear tire (with snow packed up entirely underneath) was enough to back the car right out after the car that was parked behind us left. It was embarassing, and I learned not to be so stupid.
I just wanted to share that. Luckily, my Jeep-obsessed friend never found out. His "H2 Recovery Team" t-shirt would have been worn everyday after that just to taunt me.

When your truck just grinds in 4 unlock, but moves in 4 lock, that means you broke a front
cv joint or shaft. Not uncommon when doing some rough off roading. Dealer should cover it with no problem. I would clean off the undercarriage as well as I can just to be on the safe side.
