Re: 72 Suburban Build
I haven't posted on here in a little while. The Burb is still running great. I've been spending most of my time on my Volvo sleeper I'm building (turbo LS motor in a 79 Volvo 264). I just got a LS7 intake with a drive by wire throttle body for it. You can follow updates here http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=594252 if you are interested.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
Went for a cruise in the Burb to a local car show. My son loves driving in it.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
Great build. Just read all the way through, and you busted getting this thing together (both time wise and leg wise it looked like haha). Super cool build man!

Re: 72 Suburban Build
Finally got around to straightening and gusseting my upper control arm mounts. It took a shim or 2.....but it's driving straight and not eating tires now.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
that's a lot of shims bro!! Have you thought of using washers instead of shims? I think that way no chance of them moving or coming out.

Re: 72 Suburban Build
Finally getting around to sealing the back. Made some panels today (eventually going to put speakers in them) amd sealed all of the gaps. Going to cover the entire rear with dynamat and carpet it tomorrow. My flame thrower setup came in today too. That'll be Friday's fun!

Re: 72 Suburban Build
That should make a big difference. Is that Dynamat or another brand?
