Nice looking Humvee! I really like the new paint job! Is that a camera in the windshield or a light?

Not all Hummers were built equal.

The manufacturer didn't have solid axle but aftermarket did!!! I've always liked the looks of a solid axle H1 you would loose some of its capabilities changing it over, but who's worried about that. Having a nice ride vs an off-road beast I'd say off-road wins!!!

they are called BUMMER kits. you use a GM frame and runnig gear and you install the fiberglass BUMMER kit. A guy in our mud club use to have one on a old 80's chevy suburban frame....
