Re: H2 160K Overhaul
this is some impressive DIY work. i wish i had the balls to do this. i would say knowledge too, but i think you would throw the hanes book at me like what was posted earlier.....
im just scared with all the little parts, because i normally end up with "Spare parts" after i work on things that arent suppose to have spare parts..

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
Farther down the rabbit hole.

WTF is that?
That diff is massive almost twice as big as a Rover diff!
This bushing is ok?

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
Very nice. I have already decided that when my Hummer is old and tired it is going to be rebuilt/restored and kept going. Why spend the money on a new rig, when nothing else will compare. Spend it on the one that's paid for and make it the way you want it.

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
After working on it, I must say that this truck looks like it was build as a 3500 truck. If it wasn't for the plastic interior it's pretty solid truck.

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
Unfortunately the A/C does not work it also doesn't want to switch between outside and inside air, the controller goes a little crazy when I select that. Don't the unit got to be programed by the dealer? I think I read that somewhere.

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
Leaking cooler? Did you have it apart, or is it a new problem?

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
I love threads like this. Keep the pics coming. Regarding some of those surface rust issues. Do you live in a very humid part of the states??.Ive never seen surface rust like that on interior componants.

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
All and all, every thing works just fine if not better. The PS cooler leek is a new thing but a easy fix, got a new cooler with lines on eBay for $40  . The truck also is pulling a P0135 even thou all O2 sensors are new-ish, I'll give it couple of days maybe it clears it self. I still have to do the injectors only 7 came in still waiting for one.
On to the interior!!!!

I think NJ is the most humid of them all and we just moved away from the coast line.

Re: H2 160K Overhaul
Can you post a pic of what the back of one of the door panels looks like. I'm getting ready to pull mine off to have 'em Line-Xed and I was wondering how the 'leather' sections (top and arm rest) were attached to the plastic...easily removable? Not removable?
Thanks in advance!

Your the man if you were able to replace those without disassembling the new switches. I've replaced all four buttons...I had to take apart each one in order to get them installed. I just didn't have enough slack in the cable to install as your illustrations demonstrate.
Keeping all the lights working in this truck is definitely a challenge.
