1. Cast Iron front diff
2. Front Diff locker
3. Springs (Rear and front) instead of the current leaf springs and torsion bars


That's about it.

A fricken rear view mirror that dims better than the stock one. All these bastages with H2's and their fricken off road lights behind me!

A short list of minor enhancements I'd like to see made to the H3

Diesel engine in all models (approx 4 L)
V8 available in all models (not just the Alpha)
Manual transmission available in all models
Solid front axle
Locker and selectable hubs up front
Coil / Coil-over suspension up front
37 inch tires on the adventure model
Part time transfer case

It seems as though there is not enough attention to what the customers want and more toward bean counting cuts. Personally I would love, and pay for, most of the improvements that are suggested here. If not I will be weighing all the options out there when it comes time to buy a new vehicle, including the H3 if it is still around!

I just picked up an 08 on Monday and am extremely unhappy with that metal colored piece, aka the impact bar. I was going to buy one from an 07 until I saw the price. I thought about painting it but I don't want it to be a bad paint job and flake or chip.

hopefully the guys at GM would realize they made a dumb mistake with that and change it back for next year, the only color it looks remotly good on is Boulder Grey, you could always take it into a professional place and have them paint it, and out of curiousty how is much is that piece, and wouldnt you have to change the whole skid plate to since that change as well and this year its like one big connected piece?

It was easy to change, get yourself a can of Dupli-color spray on truck bed liner, sand the area you want with fine san=d paper, clean off with some isopropyl alcohol and tape off all the surrounding area with masking tape and plastic or paper. Spray away, you can build the texture you want with how many coats you apply. Took a couple of hours tops.

It won't do any worse than the paint that is on there and it is easy to touch up if you have to. I first thought that front piece was just clear coated aluminum, but when I got to prepping I noticed it was sprayed, it didn't matter I didn't like the look of it, it visually made it stick out more so I would have changed it if it was gold leaf!

The bumper bar is about 250 with a discount. That's too much, lol. We have a body shop at my dealership so I'll just wait until they need to paint a black car and I'll take mine off and let them paint it. I can't stand it. It's bothering me.

Sounds like they really need to ditch the H3 and start from scratch.
