H3 vs. H2 off-road?

[timgco]

Well< i'm glad H2H is going! Seth is one of the best spotters I have been out with. So rest assured you will have fun and shouldn't wreck everything if you listen to him.

On another note, I hope you have installed the UC protection and rock rails. After I brought ours home, I looked under there and started laughing. EVERYTHING is open and what did have guards, were next to worthless. I put the UC protection on with the help of 4WP Denver and the rock rails on too. The UC protection seems to be much stronger than my SUT UC protection.

So after off-roading in my 03 (air susp) and the 05 SUT (NO AIR SUSP) I prefer the feel of the SUT better. Stiffer and gives more feel on the trail. (my 2 cents) But after having the H3 out a couple of days ago, all I can say is "DAMN!" You notice the almost 2,000 lb difference and going up/ down steep hils in 4LO was great! IT took less effort than my SUT did. More pedal feel too. I was worried about that rear muffler though! As Seth was saying, they slide their hitches over rocks, If you do that on the H3, you're going to hit that muffler for sure! It's won't be that hard to make a plate for that though. Mounting will be easy too. My other concern was the lower shock mounts. They are hanging down quite far and open to get smackedby rocks in certain situations. Power: no issues! Once you need to shift it into 4LO, you forget it only has 225ft lbs of torque. This truck will climb like a mule... just like the H2.

Who's better? H2 or H3? Neither, Jeeps are the best!
I think both will be even in the long haul. The H3 is great and i look forward to off roading both the trucks.... if she lets me.
