Re: 1991 Suburban springs, questions
It wouldn't be worth all that to me if I couldn't swap in the heavy duty full floating 3/4 (or 1 ton) axles. I wish that I had the axles from under my old 1973 K-20 under this rig!
I'm sure brand new custom made springs installed by the shop would be cheaper than all that messing around. Otherwise I might as well do it right and put Rockwells under the old Burb  I dunno about the 2004 wheels, but the 1988-1998 6-hole 16" pickup wheels are backspaced way out almost to the outside of the rim*, so they hit the tie rod knuckles before you ever even get close to the hub - not sure they even start onto the lug nuts. I haven't heard good things about spacers, either  * I used one of those junkyard wheels turned with the inside up as a "bucket" for the tire chains in the back of my GMC C-20.
