Hummer H3 Recon




This guys wanted a daily daily driver to replace his Jeep and grabbed an H3. Then he decided to make a few minor changes. I have seen many a laughable H3 with the silly oversized rims and low profile tires for massive pavement crushing but this is a project I really love. Check out the pics and link to the forum thread....




Quote from the article:

After years of having many Jeeps (Willys, CJ, XJ, ZJ, TJ, WJ, JK) I decided to get an H3 because I wanted something that could be an everyday driver. I really only got it because the WJ Grand Cherokee was no longer available as new. I'm really not a friend of IFS, but since everything out there was IFS I figured I would give the Hummer legend a try. Didn't want an H2, but I found the I5 in the H3 too weak. So I waited for the Alpha to come out. I custom ordered it because I wanted to make sure it had no chrome and sunroof. As an everyday driver, I really love it. I couldn't be happier. I also love the look of the H3. Especially when some tree-hugger Prius driver gives you the dirty look Now as far as a 4x4 is concerned, I quickly learned, thanks to this forum, that it was never going to meet my standards. Even if I hate IFS, I was willing to give it a chance. What really tipped the scales was the weakness of the front end. I mean the whole front end. Steering, Diff size, CVs, tierods, etc.
