I'm not sure why you're stuck on this. As I said, "most" H3's were indeed auto, and your post never clarified that your wife's H3 was a manual. I just was unsure whether you were talking about an actual downshift or a "shift" from a locked torque converter to unlocked, and was looking for...

I'm not retarded either. But you never clarified that you were talking about the manual (which is relatively rare in H3's), so...

As said, shocks don't support the weight, the springs/torsions support the weight. Shocks only dampen the movement. BTW, the Fox 2.0 shocks are NOT soft.

Zebra, I'm curious...where did you find a 5-speed 4L60E trans? :rolleyes:

The H3 has a 100mm hub center, so the 100.5mm bore should fit. However, you don't mention the back spacing; you need to go with a max of 5.5" backspacing. Not a fan of 20" wheels for off-road, so I have no recommendations for tire size.

The point would be that the KM is gonna be louder, and wear faster, than the KO. Unless you spend very little time on pavement, the KM is a waste of money, IMO.

Not for a while...just bought KO2's recently!

You can also check the tire size listed on the sticker on the inside of the (driver) door frame; Adventure will have 285 tires, non-adventure will show 265.

Get a Lithium jump start pack.

I use Torque Pro; it does give trans temp. but you have to download the GM PIDs. There are 3 GM Transmission Temp PID's, only 1 works on my Hummer. None of them work on my GM 8.1L V8 in my motorhome. As for the OBD adapter, mine is just a cheap one (about $15) off of eBay, but it did take 2...

Hmmm...interesting. It could be done fairly easily with a relay. Maybe key one of the two?

I'm running the Fox 2.0, front and back. A bit stiff on the road, but not too bad, and they work good off-road.

It seems like lately there are more posts than usual that involve new H3 owners having complex (or not) mechanical issues, and being taken to the cleaners by unscrupulous dealers/repair shops. I couldn’t figure out why, until I thought about it a bit. Maybe what’s happening is that our beloved...

I run a K&N filter in my stock Alpha airbox, along with a DIY air doc style intake.

Hmmm...wonder if you could add some rubber weather stripping to seal it?

Glad I live on the west coast. Zero rust on my chassis.

It's considered cold since the intake air comes from outside of the engine bay (just like stock). As for waterproof/snorkel, the stock intake location is (according to GM) good for 24" of water. Regardless, I don't see anything on a snorkel intake that would conflict with your Volant system, so...
