That was the day I decided to make it more like I wanted, so I took out the rear windows, and cut off the rear of the roof...

Somewhere during that time I had the local Hot Rod Shop guy make up some louvered panels for me...

Then, I started to strip away more stuff that didn't match how I wanted to build or drive it...

So, I started with little stuff, like removing the interior in the back, to prep it for bedliner.

Um... Yeah, so, after a night of measuring till my brain bled, and drawing all over the underbody with a silver sharpie, and some spray paint, I had to deal with my own stupidity and face facts... It wasn't going to go in, and leave me any room for stuff like front driver and passenger seats...

I found a Suburban on Craigslist during an "I hate warranty companies" rant with a 454 in it, and pulled that drivetrain out to go in the H3 because I like to party.

We drove up to see Christopher Titus in Madison, that was the night I felt the trans slip, we were 2.5 miles from the house, and I babied it back... nearly SHITTING myself from stress... I argued for a month with the aftermarket warranty company that changing engine oil had nothing to do with...

My daugther, at my birthday fire... "Hey Dad, can I drive your Hummer in the creek..?" "No, you're 12..!" So then I hear my truck driving up out of the creek... That's my Mom in the passenger seat, my daughter had been driving since she was 10, just my Bronco, and the YJ...

Okay, first, AWESOME BUILDS in this forum everyone..! This is my H3, which made a lot of sense to me, at first... A 5 cylinder engine that actually saw 18 in the city and 21 on the highway for mileage. It was smaller and far more maneuverable than it's predecessors, at in an urban environment...

Great build..! Thanks for sharing this. And I like that ARB fridge, I've been running in the past with just a cooler for weekend trips, but I really need to find something like that... Great work..!

This is it, the picture that speaks a thousand words... Great vehicle, great build, great write up. I'm a big fan of the FJ, and I REALLY like that desert sand paint..!

OH HELL YEAH..! And the GUMBALL wheel..! You're a madman..! I TOTALLY DIG every part of this..!

Don't forget about wheel "spacers" that have the same bolt pattern but just move the wheels out, and measure everything first (wheel bolt length is crucial here), I've seen a vibe on 31 inch BFG tires go some pretty intense places. And just a tip, a hockey puck makes a great one inch lift under...

I totally dig your bus..! Very cool, VERY cool..!

ASNOBODY...Thanks man..! I'm diggin' your avatar, it reminds me of a slipknot tune..! T-88... Hola..! Gracias..!

THIS is a win..! I just dig this in a BIG way..! Excellent choice..!

That's just... Well, it's freakin' AWESOME is what it is... I'm SO into this build, I'm actually at a loss for words man... Great work on a great truck..!

Hey all, I'm new to the forum, but I've been an avid outdoor type person since I was in diapers, I'm 48 now, and retired. My current vehicle is an '07 H3, which I gutted last summer to build into a serious off road vehicle. Somewhere along the blurred lines of conduct in other forums, I realized...

I am completely in on your anti-brand vehicle specifics. I never cared about a factory name on a vehicle. Truth be told, at this point in my life, every single vehicle I've ever owned was repaired, rebuilt, and sold. Any vehicle worth it's weight was built or modified by the owner for the sole...

Hey everybody, I'm Dave. I'm up in Illinois next to the Wisonsin Border. For me this all started as a city kid camping, then a move to the mountains of Arkansas as a 6th grader, and then back to the city, and friends in the farming community with EPIC bonfires. After high school in '89 was the...
