Its a 89 gmc sle burb,and it has a 6 inch ruff country lift on it..And the Hummer H2 wheels are 17 x 9 1/2 and 35/12.50/17's pro comps mud turrains
I put the 2 inch billet wheel spacers to get the offset H2 wheels out where they belong,Rides really great!! Will cruise 70+ on the interstate's.. And this is a 89 2wd body on the 80 3/4 4x4 frame the left pic dont look bad ,but 25 gallons of bondo works wonders for rust cover ups...(Before i got it) When the body tub went for scrap,it weighed 3,500 pounds and it was all plastic

That sure looks like an 8" lift to me....hmmm....I'm putting an 8" lift on my '79 K20 Sub....then I have some 37" Hummer radials (Goodyear Wranglers) on Weld racing wheels to go on it....oh yeah, and a Dana 60 front end with Powr-Lok positraction just for good measure!!

Re: Here`s mine,let`s see yours

Nothing too special here but a picture of a rust free rig (except for the typical paint delaimination surface rust) that a few buddies and I screwed together in CO for another buddy that was looking to transplant a solid squarbody SFA Suburban to MI. After a year of squatting around my garage the beast finally made the 1500 mile journey from Southern CO to Detroit in August 2006. He only had one issue while driving it to back to MoTown…..the heater core puked on the floorboard in Omaha. No biggie… just had to bypass the heater hoses and keep on trucking.

1988 GMC K2500 Suburban, 6.2L diesel, TH400

New goodies…

Swapped in new AMG 6.5L turbo diesel engine with a modified mechanical 4 plunger injection pump, tweaked early 90’s GMT400 turbo, late model oil cooling system, A/C and a 14 bolt full-floating rear axle with 4:10 gears to replace the original 14 bolt semi-floater.

Look out Kid Rock and Eminem…your hoopy has arrived. No 22 inch bling bling wheels allowed.

New member here. Mine's an '86 Silverado: 3/4 ton, 4x4, 6.2L diesel with all the goodies. All I've done to it are remove the running boards, new wheels and tires, roof racks, cd player and xm radio. My parents bought this truck new in '85 and my 5'2" mother drove it for 15 years before trading it for a Yukon. It now lives in Florida but still sports my fathers Illinois tag that's been on it since new. My wife calls it my purse because of all the crap I carry arround in it.

Having a hard time attaching the photos, any advise would be appreciated.

Thanks K. I love the diesel, not common for it's age and 16-18 mpg. No speed-demon but it's a towing machine.
Getting ready for a Keys fishing trip next weekend, I have a renued interest in her. Mandatory stuff like fuel filter, water pump and rad flush, transmission service, air filter, ac charge etc; and fun stuff like new speakers and interior rod racks hung from the ceiling.

Thanks,


The tire and wheels do cost a bundle, They are 20 inch wheels with 41 inch Iroc Radials.

Here is a pic with 44inch Boggers



And this is the other Suburban I have for sale trying to pay for all these tires and wheels.

Re: Here`s mine,let`s see yours

here's my "real" burb. I'm not too fond of the paint or the mirrors, but someday it'll be exactly the way I want it.
