suspension for 48 BURB 3800series
 

anyone got any idea what would work best for my :bowtie: BIG BURB its a 1948 Chevy 3800 series BURB, I want to change the front suspension on it, but really dont want to cut it unless I have too. Custom Classic trucks was suppose to have something about Heavy duty suspension in their mag this month but I cannt find it anywhere in the mag.... thanks for any help....joe :bowtie:

thanks, but I know all about these folks, BUT you have to remmeber I'm doing a 3800 series BURB which is about 2-3 ft longer & the frame is MUCH larger past the cab & is heavier than a 1/2ton truck or burb, & I dont want to put something under it that really wont work...thanks joe

Donner card?!? Makes me think of the Donner party....which reminds me-9 out of 10 cannibals prefer vegetarians!

71-72 3/4 ton suburban frames work after stretching it a little in the center. Is yours a 133" wheelbase?

but isnt it TOO wide :whine: ????, thats what I have found w/most newer BURBS, the wheels will stick outta the wheel wells by about 2inches......thanks....joe

Send me an e-mail and i'll measure a 71 burb frame hub to hub.
