That's cool. Just setting things straight,so now you know,as well as anyone else who reads this. It's hard to say what's under your Suburban.Back in the day,even before any such thing as a "lift kit",guys would take a trip to a spring shop to get what they wanted. My first 4wd was a '69 Dodge and there was no lift kit made. I bought a set of 14.50/37 Armstrongs when they first came out. I arched my springs on an anvil and added a leaf.

Here's 13/37 Super Swampers,8" wheels,and 7" of lift. Wheeled it wildly and never rubbed:
