Hey guys, some of you know, I haven't owned this 07 H3 (Lux/Adventure Ed) very long, and I don't know anything about it's history. It's a street-driven rig. I love it, plan to keep it a long time. Here's what I've done ..or soon to do when parts come in:

Replaced the ball joints, inspected suspension parts.
Ordered new rear diff bushing
Will inspect the steering rack bushing (but will)
Will soon replace all fluids, check plugs
Need to address sunroof leaks
New battery and clamps
Will replace t-stat housing (have part now). Needs it.
May consider replacing the transfer case rear driveshaft bushing (or at least inspect it). Rear yoke seems a little sloppy.

Ok, besides those items ....are there other specific engine/drivetrain weaknesses should I look into and address b/f expensive problems occur? I'm not that familiar with the 3.7's. Also, I'm not outfitting this for heavy-duty off-road use.

Thanks!! Sorry if this has been asked a hundred times before. I didn't see any specific stickies. Look forward to hearing your suggestions.

Is it an auto?

If yes we all strongly recommend adding an external transmission cooler. There are a bunch of write ups here and at other enthusiast sites.

The front diff carrier can also get sloppy and should be checked and maybe rebuilt or swapped.

Yeah it's automatic. By front diff getting 'sloppy', do you mean internal wear, or the bushings? I'll check it when I remove the front driveshaft.
