Front lockers in both the H3 and H3T adventure package in 2009!!!

That is huge! Hopefully they put in the cast iron housing too.

wow! Pretty cool. SO that'll put that H3 at about $40K +. Hell, for that you could wait for a last year's H2 model still on the dealer's lot with a $10K rebate, and only pay a little more.

Right Dennis? ;)

two lockers and V8 engine are good reasons for early trade-in :dancingbanana:

The H3 Alpha with a 6.2L Sounds like Fun. :clapping:

Rumor is it will be standard in upcoming model years. :clapping:

Rancho 4" with a custom spring-over setup in the rear. Also has front locker. That thing is a beast. Took it out on Golden Spike yesterday. :D

They had to de-tune it and it still has 400+ HP. Total sleeper.

The video was pretty sweet. Well, except for the soundtrack. I kept expecting some dude with cheesy moustache to show up delivering an extra large sausage pizza or something.

I assume you (they?) didn't have any tie-rod or axle issues?

Or were they upgraded in any way?

Damn you guys kill me........that rumor has been floating around here and other sites for over a year.

Those vehicles Hummer brought out were completely bad-ass.

They do still need to get rid of all the sh!t that hangs down (spring hangers, trailing arms, torsion support brackets, etc.) the spring over will help a lot.

I ran a couple trails alone with a new JK. The Hummer is much harder to see out of. Without a spotter the Hummer is harder to drive through boulder fields. It's a good thing it's a rugged bad-ass. :D

I bent some steel, but nothing that's gonna matter.

I didn't get to drive it, but Bebe drove it across Golden Crack. :cool:

It has the 16mm tie-rods and cast iron front diff with e-locker. I have some pics of the SOA that I'll post later.
