2009 Hummer H3 Alpha

[Ironhide Fx4]

Thanks, really appreciate it. Always looking for new ideas on what to do but it's getting harder and harder. I originally had an '06 with the I5 but when the Alpha was introduced in '08 I knew I wanted on. Traded for the '09 when it looked like Hummer was done and glad I waited so I got the addition of the front locker which they added in '09.

The V8 made it a good choice to start. Having the lockers from factory is a no brainier.

It is very odd they used the I5 with oversized gears. GM had a great I6 platform already in place that would have made better sense. Anyway, great rig.

Yeah, they never should have gone with the I5 and just started with the I6. I am sure it all had to do with fuel economy and fighting the gas guzzler image of Hummer.
