    Full skid plates

    I have only the rear steel skid and am happy with it. The exposed bolts haven't been an issue and I have abused the skids. Grade 10.9 bolts are very durable. I didn't realize he switched to aluminum, but from what you say you need, that may be a better solution. Almost all stock 4x4's use...

    Let’s Talk Handheld navigation/Satellite Phones.

    Samsung and Apple are 1 maybe 2 generation of phones away from having full sat functionality. Won't be cheap but what is now days. I just upgraded my stereo to the Kenwood DNR100XR, massive 10" screen is a love hate relationship but is has a dedicated GPS antenna and has proven to be extremely...

    2006 Overland build

    Since you've already have knowledge of what you need for overlanding equipment. Here are H3 specific items. 1. CV axle, I always carried 2, I had a bad habit. AC Delco preferred. 2. Upgrade the tie rods to 16mm or Outfitter Design HD kit. 3. Upgrade the steering rack clamp. OD and a few...

    Lifted back to stock

    I preferred the Trail Duty, firmer and slightly longer so the active suppression is better than stock.

    Lifted back to stock

    Was this a mid west or east coast ride? All that under coating is PITA to work around. I don't see a lift on that, the torsion bars must cranked to the max with that CV angle in the picture and those are 33"s not 35". Post a picture of the rear leaf spring hanger and a side shot of the H3 to...

    Hummer 3X 2009

    I don't think it is supported anymore. Best bet is to upgrade to a new head unit with built in navigation or use Android Auto or Car Play.

    Bluetooth odb2 scanner

    Sounds like it is a OBD device problem not a software problem. Might be some short circuiting going on inside, kind of a hit and miss problem with the cheap Amazon Chinese ones.

    06 H3 engine swap 3.5 to 5.3

    Has been done a few times, only a few mods are needed. They can add up to $$ but the "mods" are minimal. The 3.5 has served many of us well, still on mine until it blows then the LS goes in.

    Looks like a scene from Intersellar.

    What did you do with your H3 recently? NEW

    Glad to see it all together. Was 3 years ago we meet at Camp Lejeune, hope all is going good.

    Oil usage observations

    I double down on the viscosity change. I've been using synthetic 5w-40 diesel for a few years now on all my vehicles, they all are over 150k miles and consumption is minimal. Less consumption will extend the cats, that's what I tell myself, no evidence yet to prove it but at least the random...

    Please guys,Need help after new CVs

    Definitely sounds like the CV is bad. remanufactured CV's have a bad reputation and can fail after the first drive. AC Delco is the best bet for CV's.
