Wonder why...if it's cracking the cases or stripping the gears or messing with the chain. Aluminum cases like ours are sensitive to driveline vibes that may be the issue

Man is there a hummer or GM for that matter with out hidden problems? Not bashing at all but grew up on Chevys and now have 2 alphas and always have little issues! Nothing big (usually) but always something. This truck had a ton of work put into it but it's too high for me I'm good with leveled and 35s.

has anyone looked at the suspension set up? what did you think of it? pros and cons of the build?

The front end is a copy of mine. Rear is just a spring over. Nothing fancy and it works great. The transfer case issue most likely has to do with the single cardan rear drive shaft. I had the same setup, since it was built by them, and also exploded a case on one of the first road tests. Then I swapped it out to a High Angle Driveline double cardan setup, as recommended by Bebe, and have been running that setup with over 20,000 miles with zero issues.

I've seen it and studied it well... It's done well just tall IMO he's running a spring over with stock hangers so it sits a good 3-4in higher then mine, coilovers are easily adjustable and if you lower the rear with new hangers you can lower the front. He was running a stock rear driveshaft when I saw it last. Not sure why he's running 2 king shocks in a typical position then 2 angled not sure on why they felt he needed 4 shocks

Yeah true that, mine has a guilty pleasure affair and inclination for us lol. And don't get me wrong if I had the coin I'd buy it...it is pretty much how I envision my H3T to be or look like...except with a camo pain job, ARB bumper up front and some MTRz tires lol.

it seems like really fancy shock set ups are trendy right now in the off road world. maybe its popularity of desert racing or trophy trucks.

I wonder how a 3 link would work in a H3A? I have always thought that they flex a bit better.

I'm running the same 3 link on my Alpha and it flexes great. That's 1000 on a 20 degree ramp without deflating tires or lockers.

Why would a 3 link flex better on an h3 alpha then a 5cyl? There are a ton of variables that go before the motor in terms of flex

I'm not asking about alpha vs I5 in terms of flex, I was asking about 3 link vs 4 link on an alpha specifically. I just prefer a 3 link, and the ad said or somehow I got it in my mind that it was a 4 link.
