this is one of the presidential motorcade, electronic countermeasures vehicle's, just curious if those are in fact hummer axles and wheels? I see these fitted on the nnbs in the fleet as well
appears they are fitted with Goodyear wranglers.

Doesn't look like four wheel independent suspension with portals to me. Or do you actually mean the watered down thing they called a hummer and slapped on a Tahoe frame?

I can’t tell from this point cture but the H2 rear ended rides on coil springs like the Tahoe . It’s probaly just a 3/4 ton suburban. They have leaf springs in the rear. That’s why I want a h2 rear end for my tahoe. And as far as the wheels I want to say if I had to guess I would say no on them being hummer wheelsThey are probably just a custom to piece wheel that’s heavy duty with a high rating. If you look close at the center hole on the front rim it is a lot smaller then the hole on the rear so it wouldn’t even fit in the rear over the axle hub

it's hard to tell they could be something custom but the hummer wheels are 2 piece and look pretty darn similar, anyway I just thought it was interesting, to me it looks like a 3/4 ton rear axle

that vehicle is a electronic jammer basically for IED's, or anything guided electronically, so it probably has a cell phone jammer and lots of other related goodies onboard
Cool stuff. I'd love to see what the inside and under the hood looks like.

I just noticed--the rear 3/4 glass isn't there. Can't tell if it's covered or it was never there. Small, probably bullet proof, glass window in its place.

There's a square cutout and rivets back there, look at the back half.

That's an ECM and or ECCM truck.
