New Guy from Vegas here

Just introducing myself! I've got a 1990 Suburban 4x4, with what I believe now is a Plainsman conversion(thanks to another member here having it and knowing what it is).

It is supposed to be white, but the paint is missing in many areas, and the roof is a pretty surface rust color, lol. I'm gonna paint it a flat sand color, and everything chrome will be painted black. It's got the blue Plainsman interior which I intend to change the center seats to stock, and I already removed the rear seat row. Also going to change the interior to tan.

It's got lot's of miles, but it has had the top of the engine done within the last ~60,000 miles, and the tranny w/ shift kit, and transfer case have been rebuilt in the last ~40,000 miles. It's at stock height with 31's right now, but going to either 33's and 4" lift or 35's and 6" lift when the tires are due to be changed, which will be a while.

Also, just figured I'd add here, that it's got a super stiff pedal, and from what I've read....just needs a throttle cable?

Very cool and from OKC!!

Sounds like the cable is gumming up and or fraying inside, id find a good one around a salvage or they may be fairly reasonable new.
