What's on the HUMMER to-do list?

Pappibri · Nov 20, 2013

Just put on wheel bearings on the front, upper control arms, rear tail light guards.... Now I am still waiting to do my winch... I do not want to mount it on the outside, so I have been delayed because I want to mount it behind the factory setup like someone else has done, but dont think I am capable by myself without screwing it up...:roll:

well since my last post on what to do I took care of 2 bad boots on the halfshafts, taking care of my CI diff w/ locker.

Still have 4 blown shocks

Still get out the stripped and seized o2 sensor...its been a total bitch.

CI axle with 4.56 gears and rear diff with the same - then some ARBs
then a lift
then 37s

A sawzall, a new O2 bung, and a welder will have you back in business quite quickly (I used a side grinder, but determined it'd have been easier with a sawzall)

5160s up front, 5100s rear. Daystar body lift, electric exhaust cutouts, paint all the external plastics (bumpers, pillars, louvre, etc..) textured black. Underbody rust protection, steering bushings, diff bushings, cover king seat covers, programming and re-gearing front and rear diffs to (sadly) 4.56 - unless an options comes up soon making me hold abit on this one since I'd rather get 4.88s
Im only starting this now since Ill be coming out of warrenty and wld no longer care about the dealer!

I'm just about at that point. Welded an o2 socket on it and it started to move then the wrench broke. I have never had such a problem with an o2 sensor before....

Chris have you tried using 50/50 solution of acetone/atf as a penetrating oil?

Big Mike · Nov 21, 2013

Bump stops and 5100's for the front and rear were ordered yesterday.

T-Case issue
Find which bearing is making noise
Fix that bearing
New brake pads

Cajun_Tiger_Hummer · Nov 21, 2013

H3 currently at my mechanics shop. New spark plugs and water pump. Also having him cleaning the throttle body and Mass Air Flow Sensor. while it's there. (LOL, Yeah I'm lazy)

Oil being changed this weekend. Royal Purple. FTW!

As well, Front/Rear diff and transfer case. Royal Purple.

Need new rotors and break pads.

Front end is a bit loose. Need to replace steering rack.

RamRod · Nov 21, 2013

UCP & Sliders, got about 25% of the materials to complete them in my garage, the rest is on the way!!

Big Mike · Nov 22, 2013

Tracking numbers show the 5100's, Terra Grapplers, and bump stomps are inbound so they are all at the top of the list now..

I think tomorrow I'll install the torsion lift and see if I can adjust the emergency brake because it's about useless.. :huh:

I see two of the 5100's have arrived while I was gone might throw them on..

spillKill · Nov 23, 2013

roof rack
led lights all around

Installing my Christmas season shocks...since replacing the summer air with winter air in my tires, now it's time to install a new set of red Christmas-colored shocks on my T. These are the OEM GM H3 Rod Hall Championship Edition shocks for the V8 adventure/Off-road (firm ride). I didn't even know that these were still available. Thank you Zack for finding these for me, I plan to install these with shock extenders on my torsion-lifted T. Time to replace the worn-out Bilsteins. It will be interesting to see how these shocks ride compared to the OEM base/non-adventure shocks and the Bilsteins.

Portager · Nov 24, 2013

Nice looking shocks. Be sure to tell us how they work out. Maybe Zach can find another set?

Apparently my next project will be quick release anti-sway bar linkages, since I broke another one. I think I've broken 4 now. I'm going to go with the quick disconnect linkage and disconnect them when I go off road. Anybody remember which make and model quick disconnect linkage works on the H3/H3T? I started searching but so far no luck with the search terms.

Big Mike · Nov 25, 2013

Front shocks are here but I don't believe the temp outside has made it out of the teens yet plus its windy....

Those shocks are so dang sexy.

Finish on board air system. I have most of the parts, just need to dedicate some time. I finally purchased a real compressor that is 100% duty cycle. I have a five gallon tank to replace the one gallon model that came with my Wolo setup. Also going to install valves to allow me to use the compressor to air tires directly.

Big Mike · Nov 26, 2013

Bump stops are here so add another item to the list.. :corn:

06-3 · Nov 27, 2013

I got out my retired hair drier :giggle: and warmed up the lamp socket....and they came right out ! :dance
