Timgco's H3

[Fever]

Sweeeeet ride Tim. You certainly have a vision for mods.

[DDWH]

Tim, your rig turned out BADA$$! Can't wait to see it with the GOBI and new brush guard.

[RazM]

Very nice rig, gonna eat up the trails

What's your opinion of the H3 after owning an SUT?

[Boss Hoss]

Sweet looking H3...why did you go from h2 to h3? How do you like your tires? If you get a chance to test them out let me know how they perform, as i still havent been able to really get mine offroad. For some reason pictures dont do those tires justice....they are much cooler looking in person.

I like the H3. VS the H2? apples to oranges.

The H2 is a fullsize luxury ride. The H2 is a midsize lux ride. They ride very different.

the weight is very noticable IMO. The H2 feels like it had more HP when accelerating form 50 and higher, but from a stop, the H3 seems to have more off the line until it shifts.

Other than that, no regrets do far.
Thanks,
Tim.

Congratulations! Looks awesome!

You lied and told me you were doing chrome </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

There may be a change yet. 4WP has to drop the torsion bars back down and will require a diffent offset on the rim. So, there mey be a different rim yet. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

So, I went to 4WP today and they dropped the T Barrs back to where they should be, FE alignment, and tire balance. GOOD TO GO!

Rides like stock, only taller and stiffer in the corners.

Tim the truck looks awesome! Love the rims, There is a company that makes wider fender flares except they come in carbon fiber, I am actualy about to put them on mine, I will get the name for you if you are interested. By the the Ranco lift looks great! </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Who makes the flares? I would like to get some on there ASAP! Thanks,
Tim.

Tim -

Has the SMA brush guard shown up yet? I'd love to see it in comparison to the stock guard on Keira's H3.

[Kiraco]

Ipedog-
I will try to remember when I get home tonight to take a picture of our H3's next to each other. Tim's truck looks awesome!

Kira

[Ipedog]

Thanks Kira

I look forward to the pics!

NICE. Reminds me of a Rottweiller. Have you had problems (discussed elsewhere on the forum) with paint spots after exposure to mud? How the heck do you go out in the desert in a black vehicle? Did you do the Rancho by yourself or had the shop do it? Why? (A friend of mine offered to help me mod mine but I saw the number of parts and could only think of the time I spent doing model airplanes as a kid...wait there's a part missing...so am considering having a shop do it.) What were your choices for tires besides the ProComp X-tremes? Thanks.

After my MT's on my SUT and a couple of ice/ snow storms I decided to go with an AT tire.

Ahhh soooo, Rancho does not offer a warranty on the voided GM parts... Good thing I asked before I did the installing myself. Thanks.

Good job Timbo. I must not visit the H3 section often enough, because I didn't realize you had a new 3.

Now, when are you going to do Kira's.

Is there a reason Tim needed 2 more inches than you?
