Default Fully Indi Hummer H2

Had this old touring car, realized it was the same chassis as my Rough Rider F150. Picked up a body, some 2.2's and wheels. Lifted it and Tada!

Pics of it getting some serious air coming soon

Looks good brandon, nice nylint spare too. Not a big fan of the h2's but it will be fun to pound on!

What wheels and tires are those on it? very cool looking.

H1's are IFS/IRS.
H2's are IFS/Solid rear
H3's are IFS/Solid rear



Looks good though.

They look like narrowed pede's wraped in Proline Dirt Hawg III buggy fronts.

I have been thinking of a similar project but was unaware of these intermediate size tires. I have an early TA01 (longer than TA02) and four TA02 stadium trucks. I just figured a regular 2.2 (even a geolander) would be way too much for the drivetrane.:-( I may try something now.

They were mentioned above and I think that was correct. They are buggy tires on super narrowed pede wheels. Thanks man!

You'll be surprised how capable a TA02 is once you lock the diffs. My Blackfoot-bodied '02 will go just about anywhere, but the lack of flex and clearance keeps it off the rocks. It's one hell of a mudbogger, though

Sweet! I cant wait. I havent even taken it apart to see the diffs, but from the way they feel one is a gear diff and the other is a ball diff correct? what method did you use to lock them? Thanks Goat

Ditch the front diff and get another rear one. The rear will work in the front and its wider! JB weld works ok, But I use epoxy on mine to lock'em. I run the same tires on my s-10 but, with super rs4 rims.

Sweet. My dad has one I've been trying to fix for a while. He wants it fixed but never wants to throw money at it. They're fun. Once I get my new project done I'm gonna get one.

You might ever be able to use the one for the Pede. Unless that is the one you are using already, not Familar with all the different names and sizes.
