    The H3 still has lift options available to this day actually. Under $1k too I'm sure. I haven't seen anything higher than 3" in recent years, but they're out there. Don't forget a Chevy Colorado/GMC canyon lift will work too. Same truck. But a 3 inch suspension with a 1 inch body lift should fit a 37" tire pretty comfortably. Back in the day 4" suspension and 1 inch body was prime for running those tire sizes, but I knew a few people running the 4" suspension with them without issue other than slightly catching the back of the front fender on really aggressive tires. There's not as many options as there once was. But there's definitely options out there for us Hummer boys

      @@HappyWheelFan2013 actually, that is not insane at all. I would absolutely opt for a super long travel kit (colorado and canyon gain about 1.5" if they recieve the H3 suspension, so only options over 5" would be better than 3" lifts made for hummer directly). But just the coilover shocks alone with a slightly stiffer spring made for a 5" to 6" lift would probably work well in a hummer h3. Also, geometría would be messed up, so upper control arms could need some upgrade for that to work well and if those upper control arms get upgraded, lower control arms should too cuz they take the mayority of the beating. But again, there are long travel options for the colorado and the hummer has slightly more space for the coilover shock inside that upper control arm.

    Air lockers!!! It needs air lockers!
    And it looks sick! You could actually go nuts if th3 engine dies and put a 5.3 or a 6.0 v8 under the hood, go for 37s on aftermarket wheels and air lockers. Yeah, a lot of money, but you got the thing for 700 bucks, you can porñur some money knto kt and turn it into an Alpha edition killer with some of tjose mods. Imagine, a 6.0 making 360hp, air lockers (air hose for inflation and deflation), a set of aftermarket wheels and a nice camera system to always know what is in front, behind and on each side of the vehicle. That sounds like the best build ever for a truck like this

    For my Jeep Comanche I had made a 2inch lift front and back!
    1) front - on top of spring leafs we designed a 2 inch round spacer (PVC) and mounted them. Cost € 50,00 each.
    2) Back: I went to a manufacturer of blad leafs. They dismantled the leafs and bow each leaf to reach 2inch (done cold) cost € 50,00
    each. And put them back on. So for € 200,00 I had a 2inch lift all around.
    Maybe this could also work for the Hummer H3

    Add a 1" body lift $200 to give you even better look and room for tires.

    • @TopLineRacer
      @TopLineRacer  Před rokem

      I've been considering it! Luckily these tires don't rub but if I go bigger I'll probably do the body lift.

    Mix up a spray bottle of dawn dish soap and water to spray around the bead be4 you put the tire on it will fix your struggling issues with the motor! Keep the videos coming!

    • @TopLineRacer

      Awesome tip! I may not have shown it clearly but I did soap them up prior to mounting on the wheels.

  • @claybornlewis276
    @claybornlewis276 Před 10 měsíci +1

    Keep tire you got on there for the spare tire , and buy a wheel cover... and put the wheel cover on Tire... and then that'll be the end of your problem ... plus it's a lot cheaper.... and yes yours $800 Hummer is looking really good, I got six grand in mine . $800 is a lot better than 6000,,,, that's what I paid for mine and yours is just as good-looking as mine LOL

    I always line the yellow dots up with the valve stem to help with balancing. For what its worth. My mayflower balancer wont balance anything over a 31" tire, drives me crazy. Hummer looks way better now!

    • @TopLineRacer
      @TopLineRacer  Před rokem +2

      Do you actually notice a difference with the balancing with lining up the dots? I have done a bunch of tires both ways and never noticed much of a difference. Yeah this is the first big set I've tried on there and it didn't work at all but I'm not surprised.

    • @ScrapPileRepair
      @ScrapPileRepair Před rokem

      On a good machine I would, not on ours. For home use though, I can't complain. I will chase weights forever on anything over 31". I bought a brand new 15" steel rim and tire for calibration. That helped alot.
      Your favorite company, Copart has a yard 2 miles from me. Illinois laws sucks. I can't buy anything without a clean title. Have to have a rebuilders and dealer license to buy any funny title ones. Guys from Chicago come in and hook 3 together and off they go, it's a sight to see. Lol.

    • @TopLineRacer
      @TopLineRacer  Před rokem +3

      Unfortunately those are just torsion key lifts and they'll cause broken axles, I could still do a small body lift though if I wanted to go up to even larger tire but I'm happy with what I have for now.

    You need to be careful with tires. They have to be symmetrical. Otherwise they’re gonna fuck your damn axles in your tire rods up. And they become warp from sitting in the wharehouse throughout the years in the heat

    @menarenotwomen Před 2 měsíci

    You can absolutely NOT run 37s with no rubbing regardless of if you crank the torsion bar keys or not. That’s comical that anyone would say that. I own an H3, and you just simply can’t run a 37 without a lift or significant rubbing
