Just my junk

[Davidmichael]

Hey new here. Just showing what I got so far.

91 Suburban. 6" with 35's. all other stuff is stock.



Now with the 35's.


My 83 that I am going to rob the drive train out of. It has a 4" lift, 355 c.i. TH350 with a shift kit, and a junk transfer case.

When I first got it:


And now:


Now I am trying to save some cash to pick up a suburban I can make into a trail rig to haul the family, cause I want to get back into off-roading.

This was one of my babies, but traded it in when the wife got prego

01 ZR2 5" BDS and 2" body lift. Had 35's when I got it. Here's a pic of it on the lot:


And right before I traded it in:


I wish I still had that thing.

Here's the only pic I have of my 81 fullsize. All I have left is the bed and the rear frame. Now looking to just unload it I think:

nice looking vehicles...have you ever done much wheeling in PA? gonna be REALLY tough to fit a suburban on PA terrain

[Davidmichael]

I did wheel on some free private grounds before they got shut down. And I am used to wheeling a long wheel based rig. I have plans for a "lite" exo cage and I won't mind body damage. It gives trucks character.

If your looking for more suburban parts/lift stuff/etc, PM me.

[Davidmichael]

Ok cool. it's going to have to wait until after the holidays before I try and start to build anything. My family needs a good Christmas.

[limegreentj]

cool man! looking forward to it!

[ZJ_5.2LIMITED]

that suburban is CLEAN!! nice truck... what motor?? 350, 454? 700r4??

[YZEATER]

nice suburban. take lots of pics now, before you wheel it.

[Davidmichael]

350 with 16x,xxx miles. 700R4 and np241c still need to go with 4:56 gears and some odds and ends for storage.

[Davidmichael]

Thanks all for the compliments. This thing is just going to be a tow/daily driver. It's way to clean for me to wheel and beat up. I am trying to save some money to buy another one, but Christmas is coming up so who knows. might be next year before I can buy one.

[YZEATER]

how's the bed sides on the bed your getting rid of?

[Davidmichael]

they are ok. no rot or anything, but the bed has been repaired in the rear on the floor, and the sides do shake a bit. The underside does have a bed brace that is rotted. This is the only pic I have of the bed on the comp. it's no southern bed by any means, but it will haul and pass inspections.

[YZEATER]

sent ya a pm.

[Davidmichael]

Pm replied

Oh and here's my before and after rim shot

[limegreentj]

[5spdXJ]

I really like that 'burban! very clean lookin!

[Davidmichael]

Thanks

[highlandercj-7]

I always wanted to build a burban, very nice ride. It's hard to find one that's not rusted out around here. How many of you are in your family?

[Davidmichael]

just 3 haha. But I also have extended family that rely on us when we go on outings and such.

[Dragonslayer]

Ha, saw you in the burban the other day on 837. You pulled into the Shell station(I think)

[Davidmichael]

Should have honked or stopped. If I have time I will shoot the breeze with ya.

[Dragonslayer]

I hear ya, I was at work in the BIG Truck and was already past you when I realized "hey, that's the dood from the forum". LoL

[Davidmichael]

I live right up the road from there.

"hey, that's the dood from the forum"... That cracked me up for some reason.
