So you want to buy an H2!

I forgot to mention the leaking that happens with the marker lights in the roof. It is an easy fix and I can make a quick video explaining how to do it. Leave questions and suggestions in the comments!

    The gaskets on the roof lamps go bad after a while and allow water to creep in which will collect in your floor pan and soak your carpet. Easy fix with silicone(like I did mine) or just buy new lamp bodies(not expensive at all). Overall they are good trucks. People rag on em for no reason really. Simply put,it's a machine like any other vehicle and shit is gonna go out and need replacing. I've had mine(2003) since 2018 and probably have $2,500 in repair work in it. I turn wrenches so I saved a lot on parts and labor. A lil over 198,000 miles on it and I'd drive it to anywhere.

    Awesome ride bro, you really did mention almost all the stuff that break on H2s except for the most annoying one ! The automatic windows ! , rear passenger windows ! Front passenger window ! Driver window ( knock on wood still worka for me). And by window I mean the whole thing, window motor, regulator etc... Cheers !!

    Great Video. Hi Guys, im thinking of buying a 2006 H2 SUT it has 188,000 on it but looks awesome, the guy is asking $17,500. if anything needed fixing he brought it in and had a mechanic fix it. does it sound like a good deal. in in Minnesota and the guy undercoated it each year. Really looks nice. any advice?

    Disclaimer… I’m not a mechanic, I’m an enthusiast. If it was me, however, I would make sure the frame and brake lines are good. The undercoating can trap moisture and cause rust. I don’t undercoat any of my cars. Also, I would be careful if the radiator has not been replaced since they have a tendency to rupture and the trans fluid and coolant mixes causing the trans to fry. I’d make sure the transfer case shifted to low 4x4 and back (shift motors always go out). With 188k on the clock I would personally feel like it was a bit of a gamble. The engine and trans will need some love (replacement) sooner or later… as well as the difs and CV’s. Just my 2cents. Thanks for watching and let me know if you have anymore questions.

    do you have a video with the truck crank. I want to hear how loud those headers are. I'm told you get better gas mileage with headers. Thoughts? Do you get better gas mileage and do the headers make the truck louder? And are those shorty or long headers?

    I get worse gas mileage with headers. The tune will determine a lot. The truck is definitely louder with the headers than stock manifolds. I will post a video of the sound for you.

    i know a guy who is selling his 04 H2 and it has 265,000 miles on it. it is very clean underneath the truck no leaks under the hood. no roof leaks of any kind it is a high miles truck . my question to you is do you think if he is only asking $6,000 in your opinion is this a good investment

  • @modificationnation73

    Well first I’m not an expert! So, I can just say what I would do and not necessarily what you should. 6K for one that has 265k on the clock could be ok depending on the truck. I would have to see it. With that mileage the engine and trans/T case will need to be replaced soon probably if they haven’t been already. I definitely wouldn’t say it is an investment… it’s going to cost money for sure but I wouldn’t be able to give a guess as to how much without seeing it and asking the seller a bunch of questions. Does it come with the hummer steps? They are worth a lot generally.

    I think I did forget the transmission issue. The cooler lines go onto the radiator and the passages corrode and the antifreeze mixes with the trans fluid and burns it out. I have an external cooler and aftermarket aluminum radiator.
