Did the first hummers have hub reduction, AKA gear reduction in the hubs like the M998. If so am I safely to assume that the H1 has nothing of the kind.Did the Hummer have hub reduction?1.92 : 1 is the stock gear reduction in an H1 Hummer geared hub to compensate for the rather high axle ratio of 2.56 : 1.
That gives an overall final drive ratio of 4.48 : 1 ; which is why top speed is limited to just over 70 MPH. It also explains this vehicles phenomenal ability to climb almost any obstruction in it's way.Did the Hummer have hub reduction?From my small amount of knowledge I would say Yes the H1 hummer or hmmwv has always had the gear reduction in the hubs. The reason why I say this is because AM general has always had portal axles on there hmmwv's so in the end you would need gears in the hubs.
