Interesting. If they don’t have a solution for the electronics not sure how anyone would pursue this.

I’ve seen a whole bunch of GMT800 Chevy/GMC 3/4-1 ton trucks with solid axle conversions. Similar to the one you posted there are a bunch of aftermarket companies that make everything needed for these swaps.

I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t be possible to do this, but unfortunately every solid axle swapped H2 I’ve ever seen has been a show truck with ridiculous lift and unusable tire sizes. There’s no info online about H2 SAS swaps, it seems 10 or so people just went to custom shops and wrote a blank check.

I keep thinking I am going to tackle this one day, but I have not convinced myself it is really worth the extra effort and money to go SAS on an H2. If I ever did this, I would probably use the dodge 2500 9.25" front axle to start. I have heard that the diff from the H2 will drop right in because both housings are AAM 9.25", no confirmation of that, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. I know these are not ideal axles, so don't bust my balls, the upside is that they can be found really cheap. This would keep your build cost low enough to get into the SAS for minimal money and then you can decide if you want to invest in a better axle down the road. Just my 2 cents.

That's the junk yard axle I'd use. With the factory spacers in the 3500 it's even within 0.1 inch from factory track width and it uses the same ABS sensors. It's basically just the straight axle version of the IFS 9.25 in the H2.

Of course, if I ever win the lottery I have my eye on a $12,000 14 bolt steering axle. Maybe one day...
