Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
Very cool shot! I've always wanted to see what those wheels looked like in silver mounted on a truck. I've seen black and chrome 100 times, but that silver looks awesome.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
Picked up my 2WD 1994 1/2 ton a year ago for $1500. Drove it every day, traveled all over Atlantic Canada all summer chasing Atlantic Drag Racing Association points, won a $500 Gamblers Race and even finished 4th in Sportsman points at Cape Breton Dragway. Next year it gets to tow my Super/Pro car from track to track.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
yes! two inch spindles up front 3 inch springs! had to grind down a bit the lca for the stock rally wheels to fit up front also the fender lip.for the rear its a flip kit with a shackle! ( the one toward the end of the bed, i get them mix up! hanger and shackle) i cut out the bed cross bar so the pumpkin wont hit and bent up the lip on the top of the rear fender well so it wont slice the top of my tires! for shocks i think i read it on this forum or some other gm forum, i did 2000 durango shocks up front and 90 cherokee in the rear! bolt right up! got em all for 78 dollar with lifetime warranty and so far it rides good!

That is a very nice truck. I love the simplicity of it.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
After a bunch of cussing and fighting for the past 2 days, I finally got the drop hangers installed on my Suburban to finally (more or less) level it out. I also removed the running boards while I was at it.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
It's looking good now. Is that the muffin hanging down under the passenger rear door?

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
I was just checking out your page. No updates since '02? Man I sure like your truck. Sitting here wondering how difficult it would be for me to find an early stepper to work with. Like I need another project..

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
Once my tax refund comes in so I can buy tires, the 454SS wheels will be going on.
I pretty much don't update that page anymore, but I really haven't done much of anything to the truck since then anyhow. I 4-linked it in '05 and put HIDs in it earlier this year and blue LEDs in the gauges last weekend. |

They will look good on it with some 275/60's. Black center caps?

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
Sticking with stock 235/75s. I have some black bowtie caps (I need to repaint them) and some chrome GMC caps. I'm probably going to run the black ones.

The burb will look good with the SS wheels, and the new lower stance.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
Nice ride!! Is it possible to get the wheel specs and tire size your running please?? I have a 96 Yukon 2wd I have lowered close to 3-5 and fixing to notch it and add spindles along with dropping the rear more and might check into the wheels your running. Backspacing/offset/widths would be great.....thanks.

Re: How about some pics of 88-98 Trucks
Looks cool, but not sure if I like it better with the steelies or the 20s.
Nice ride either way though. ![]()
