Re: 1972 Suburban 4X4 3/4 Ton K20 "The Beast"

Q10I'll add that my 2wd, 1/2 ton, SBC, Burban weights 4780 with my 200 lbs and about 1/2 tank of gas and no second row seat installed.

It's great to see you're making progress! Keep up the good work!

I was informed by ORD that they will provide a spring to hold 1050# at a 6 to 6.5” loaded arch measured from the spring perch up. I'm not sure what to make of this and have call into them but the owner is away for the week, so I thought I would ask for some feedback from all of you. Thanks!

I hope someone else can give some insight on that. I am lost on that one....
