that is a beastly brushguard on the h1, you might want to raise that front license plate bracket so you dont loose the license plate when yuour out offroading

Nice looking rig. Your gonna love those cepek rims, are they 16.5 or 17's? The tires gotta go, you need something a bit more meaty. Looks like it was kept outside from the looks of the brush guard and winch. Make sure to measure those front springs. The factory winch is a heavy mofo, which will wear those springs out pretty fast. When you throw that 150 pound brushguard on top of it, that only compounds your spring problems.

It was actually kept inside for the past 8 years, which I think was also the last time it was washed. It only has 33K miles on it, and the engine was replaced under warranty 9K miles ago.

The rims are 16.5 " and I plan to put on a set of Parnelli Jones Dirt Grips as soon as it arrives. Is it a smart move to keep the 16.5 factory rims, or should I replace them with 17" and get the new tires in 17" ? Any suggestions for tires ( it will be on-road most of the time ) ?

Thanks for the tip on the front spring height. Please send me more tips, as I am completely new to the Hummer scene.

I am just starting to gather some new parts ( ball joints, halfshafts, brake pads/dics, etc ) just to have on hand if I ever need them.
