How about some pics of 88-98 Part II

[dakattack7]

96 Vortec 5.7/4l60 123k original. Fake Z71 (I didn't check before I bought it,) but has G80, 3.73's and skid plates factory

I plan to daily this for life. GMT400's are the perfect daily's to me, and then C10's as projects.

When I got it:


Now with later model silverado wheels and K02's 265/75


Engine bay detailed:


After I fixed/upgraded my 4wd with an electric actuator:


Can't decide if I want to crank for level yet, but it's staying 99% original. It was hard to find a 96-98 Swb single cab "Z71"!

I'd like to find one like yours. The GMT400s are long running trucks. I went from the '92 I ordered and drove up till Summer '14 to this '95 K2500 Suburban. It's from North Georgia. I bought it from Cobb County and it was a Sheriff's K-9 unit. Just a plain Jane but with HD stuff. I bought as a one size fits all work truck hauler daily driver load everybody up and... vehicle. only had 120k on it and 20 years old fleet maintained.

First picture was at county maintenance garage when I picked it up

Thanks!

Wow, 611k! How many rebuilds on engine/tranny? Any other issues? Nice looking truck still! I've already put 3k on mine in 2 months

Awesome rig and cool background. I liked your GMC a lot too, what happened to it? Just made room for a family friendly version?

That is a sweet Burb Tim! Somehow I missed where you got a new addition. Love the 255 tires and earlier hub caps. Funny, when I found my ’89 square Burb I was actually looking around for CUCV K5’s or GMT400 K2500 Burbs like yours (quite a bit different rigs but that is what I wanted). The GMT400 Burbs are still the best looking Burb ever built in my opinion. I dig the 1SA bare bones models like yours and truckfan’s red ’93 the most as they have everything you need and none of the BS you don’t. Nice score!

Tim, that's a great looking Suburban! Trying to convince the wife to let me get a GMT400 'burb or 3+3 but no dice! The w/t grille looks really sharp.
