Nice progress. Ive been looking for a 63 burb myself and this is inspiring me to get more active in the quest.

Re: 1963 suburban - fixin it up
Looks like lotsa work but aint they all, that's the best way to do it take it all the way down. That's what I'm doing to. It's lookin good.

Was not making much progress for a few years then got back on it this summer. Also purchased a bunch more parts. Still need to do more metal patch work. Rebuilt the front end, added drop springs and shocks, dual master brakes with disc, drop spindes. New poly bushings on rear trailing arms, power steering, sway bar. new tires and powder coated the rims. Will post up some photos. |

Add some new springs, shock relocators and shocks from ECE.
Before pic of w stock height and red rims. Pics of rear end and codes on rear end. Question: Do I have to open up the read end to check the rear ratios or is there a way to look up the code? |

Front end started out super caked w gunk, was a pain to get cleaned up.
Got the rims powder coated black and got new tires. Tore down the front end and got all new moog parts along with drop spindles and power disc brakes. Brakes were shot and one of the a-arms was cracked. Got a new one from aspen auto. |
