Re: 1990 GMC Suburban ... Cummins Powered

I had a shop for over 20 yrs ... I had a guy working for me that just did rivet bolt replacement ... The trucks I built were 4x4s and heavy trucks .
I could not put a cummins in a truck with 3 leave springs ... Deaver is the best spring company around in my opinion .
I have built diesel trucks for guys with off the shelf springs and they do work . This truck is going to have 8 inches of lift and ride better than a stock suburban .
By the time I'm done with the frame boxing , cummins , winch , bumper ... I figure I am adding a extra 2200 lbs + over the original set up .
More leafs and flatter spring gives a better ride , Just the first 3 springs are part of the military wrap on these springs .
