LOVE the pics of your truck with the GMC.

We have a Suburban. '01. is yours a big block or small block? Ours is a big block. You'll love it...they're stepford wife cars around here, along with the BMWs and Range Rovers, but we use ours to haul hay, dirtbikes, horses...she is no street queen

and they can hold everything you own...they just go on forever. I have so many crazy pics of ours.

The Suburban is a 03 small 5.3 so far gettin 15.3 mpg but im trying for more...
I have 4 kids and there getting big so its perfect for us.

Fronts is a coil cut out of stock springs and backs are rear springs out of a custom cruiser wagon,caprice wagon or even roadmaster wagon springs with a coil & a half with grade 8 bolts holding the bottoms down
Its a nice ride and low enough to look good but not to low to have a crapy ride didnt need a c notch just cut bump stops.
Daily driver rides good.

816allen · 02-25-2010, 03:23 AM

The drop cost me maybe 3 bucks

Tryin to stay cheap with this truck as its just a parts truck/work truck
Wanna start a new rod real soon. alot older one...

Thanks a lot, I appreciate the info... I am gonna drop mine a little more, so knowing where yours is at helps me.

Great shots of the two trucks together. We've met a lot of interesting people just being somewhere in our truck. It's a great conversation starter.
