my side project was building the bath and closet for my master bedroom hoping to stuff the burb in the garage later this week and spend some quality time with it
going to mock up my rear links bags mounts and remove everything to prep for a 2" dropped cross member

[justpball]

[justpball]

[justpball]

[87 dually burb]

that then had more rot than most stuff from NY badly rusted with a nice paint covering both rocker, all 6 drs, fenders,quarters,rear wheel well had a 1.5" gap from rust you could see in carpet
sad though interior was perfect
owell back to my burb

[justpball]

oh well

[SBTork]

any updates? wife's ride, or yours?

[87 dually burb]

nothing lately pasted on buying the burb rusted bad all round
hoping to rework rear end measure for tank/cell replacement
having to move parking brake bracket and what ever will keep it laying on frame

[87 dually burb]

building my 2 link kit right now will lay frame in rear.
now debating on the front thinking 2" z and 2" sectioned crossmember
I need about4-5" to lay on pinch welds. frame is about 2" below body
what to do next??

[justpball]

body drop....

[87 dually burb]

no need for a body drop if I redo the frame with 2x4 stock I can cut off the pinch welds and lay body
major set back I ripped out all the tub and notch work to start over
guy f'd it up tubs are set back 4 inches from center,bridge cover was 6"
above frame notch,tubs are 8" wider than needed
debating a 3 link with a wish bone now then build back around it
want to reuse my 3rd row seat so we can all cruise around in it?

[87 dually burb]

still around just stripped the 84 burb I bought for parts


going to section crossmember this month and install early july
still reworking the rear setup
thinking bag on bar 4 link

[justpball]

just to let you know bro, 2in on the crossmember the a-arms will hit the steering stuff. I went 1 5/8 and it was just touching, so I think you should do a 1 5/8 and then 2.5 z...just my 2 cents...

[87 dually burb]

one question where is the interference at can I just clearance the end of the lca's or is the steering going to drag on the crossmember

[justpball]

Yea it is the steering that hits, I will take some pics sat because I will be under there

[ECU PIRATE]

[87 dually burb]
