Re: Suburban Updates

Yes the molding is coming off im not a fan of it. I have a bumper in the garage waiting for me to put it on.

Ok bad news. My garage is full so i was going to use a friends garage tonight and now he is backing out. So i will try to get the front done tonight in the rain, and the back done in the morning.

Re: Suburban Updates

Ok front done I got pics. If you want a pic of something let me know. It rides really nice just about 5" of drop. Now I need to find time for the flipkit.

Re: Suburban Updates

Thanks "SBTork" the wheels do look alot better they dont look so small lol.


"Cherub" The front wheels are 15x8 with 245-60-15 and the backs are 15x10 with 295-50-15

And i do like the rake to. I was tryin to think how it would look with some big M/T slicks on there even if it will not trun them over LOL
