Re: 72 Suburban Build

Love the look of the Slosh Tubz, I may have to consider them since I am going to be removing my engine soon, Now may be the best time. Is there a thread dedicated to them?

I'd like to do it right now!!! However, I'm trying to get my house ready so the renters can move in this weekend. I have quite a bit to do still and i have to load up my garage into a POD to move all of my tools to SoCal. So...I need to try to get them on by Sunday night or I'll be doing it with limited tools/space. Wish me luck!! OR....one of you guys can come bolt them in for me.....

Re: 72 Suburban Build

If you want to come to James Island your welcome to bolt them in at my place. I'll even let you use my wrenches and air tools! Then I can get to drool over your burb for a while.

Don't let the tubz blow away in this hurricane we're having!!
