Default My New Alpha H3

Hi everyone.

I just picked up my new Alpha. Added new rims and Yokahama MT (33's). I previously owned an H2 for 5 years. Now I am on the the H3. I am blacking out the door handles and mirrors next week. In January, I am adding a winch mount front bumper. Love this truck!

nice wheels & tires on that Alpha - black goes well with the red too - looks great overall and once you'll get rid of the door & mirror chromes the truck will look even better. Getting envious here. Those 33's look somewhat bigger, I guess optical illusion?

Hi, they are 33" Yokahama MT's. Rims are b y American Racing with a 2" offset. The tire guys has to put a spacer behind the front rims to clear the calipers.
Next month I go to Towbin Hummer in Vegas to get the front bumper to hold my 9000ti winch I had on my H2.

Nice looking rig if you don't mind me asking what drew you from an H2 to an H3? Texas Red said he too left an H2 and is now in a H3. Just curious.

I went to the H3 Alpha for several reasons:

H3 came as an Alpha - Biggest Reason ( Big Engine)
H3 was smaller - Better for trails (less scratches), Better gas mileage, Fits in my garage and in parking garages

H3 still pulls my 30' 6,200lbs boat
Lower gear ratio which I feel for the type of offroading I do is an advantage.

Neither, I special ordered my H3 Alpha. I started out with an Alpha Base. The added the packages I wanted. Those are:

Adventure/Offroad Package - 33" tires, 4:1 ratio transfer case, larger & special tuned offroad shocks, Locking rear diff.

Nav & backup camera

Ebony 2/tone leather seats with Alpha Stiched in headrests.

Rocker panels, under body protection kit, Red grill.

By ordering rather than buying the one on the lot was that I got to eliminate the luxary package
