Show me your 67-72 4x4 Suburbans! - Page 3 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

PHAT TONY · 11-23-2011, 01:10 PM

I'm developing a possible craving for a 4X4 'Burb, so I'd like to revive this thread and see more pics of these big beauties.

olblue60@aol.com · 11-23-2011, 06:26 PM

Hey Tony
I cant say wich kind of burb is the best because there are different needs for each burb owner. I happen to love the 4x4 burbs. I have had three and all I can say is they are great vehicles. I'm down to just a 68 now, which is my first burb. I also owned a really rusty 1972. Maybe I still do. I took off the old rusty body and replaced it with a 1967 panel body.

C20-67_N_MO · 11-23-2011, 08:25 PM

Well I sold my Suburban and having withdrawls.

It just had too much rust for me and my body man to deal with. So hoping the next one I get will be in better condition.

PHAT TONY · 11-23-2011, 09:02 PM

I think I'm safe in saying if I find "the" 4x4 my Blazer has to go away, and after building my Blazer...,the Suburban would have to be done and done nicely.

C20-67_N_MO · 01-29-2012, 09:37 PM

I am on the hunt for another 'burb, but this time in better condition body wish.

Keep posting 4 wheelin' Suburbans guys!

CrewCab59 · 02-02-2012, 02:00 AM

Lol sounds like what I used to have. a 1967 that I paid way too much for. And it had rust or I mean to say rust was its best friend.

Always on the hunt for a 2wd 'burb as I plan to transplant onto a 2004 wrecked Suburban chassis and running gear.

Mr Pops · 02-21-2012, 10:35 PM

Can I play!?? My 2wd Burb is starting to get some 4x4 parts.. I've got a long way to go though..

Of course you can play as long as you don't tell anyone that my front driveshaft isn't bolted in mine.

You should definitely start a build thread for that snow buster you're building.

Here you go.. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=503386 I started this thread in the message section, when i bought it and then it turned into something that should have gone in the "Projects and Builds" section.. oops

CrewCab59 · 02-22-2012, 01:00 PM

C20-67_N_MO

Here is the info you asked for.

Bought the burb back in 1997 and drove it about 6 months ,3rd owner 56k and the rust came from setting in the grass/ weeds.

Spec:

1972 Custom delux / 20
350/350/205
D44/eaton 4:10 gears
Rubber mat front to back
Non A/C but have a complete roof A/C from a 70burb front to rear.
6" skyjacker F&R springs
3 row bench seats all great.
35" BFG AT Ko / 9.75 x 16.5 KH wheels ( just waiting )

Now the new build

It's going to be a frame off rotisserie color combo will stay the same.

Plans keep changing
tailgate / hatch ,door barn door.
6.0 4l80E
5.9 Cummins 47re
D60/ D70HD 3:73 gears.

That all until the build start. I be doing 3 other builds at the same time.

Thanks

CG · 02-22-2012, 01:16 PM

If I ever found a decent deal on a 72 3/4 4x4 burb with front and rear air I would probably pick it up. Im not looking for one, but if it fell in to my lap =)

sameyrasmea72 · 02-22-2012, 01:39 PM

Here's a couple we had in the past.

CG · 02-22-2012, 02:17 PM

Just like that second pic would be perfect for me. Just curious what did you get for it? (you said you had it in the past).

I think we got $6500 for it. It was faded but had a perfect interior.
we bought it to keep but someone had to have it worse than we wanted it.

CG · 02-22-2012, 07:18 PM

Yeah it looks good but thats way more than I would want to spend. Im sure that one was worth it, I just need something a little clunkier so it would fit in my budget =)

68burbanontherocks · 02-22-2012, 08:07 PM

Heres mine!

C20-67_N_MO · 02-22-2012, 09:17 PM

Very nice sir.

My dream burb would be to buy a 2wd in decent condition body wise and take it down to the frame. Then find either 5.3/6.0 liter with all tranny/transfer case and other modern fare. Once the body has been gone thru would transfer all to new running chassis and interior. Green with white strip. 33-35" tires maybe a turbo 5.3 liter. Just in the planning stage now.

Like I said just a dream in my head right now.

I remember that now, didn't recognize it from that picture and also didn't realize you had started the 4x4 conversion. Looks good, you'll be done before I am!
