88 burb- DD/future 500hp LQ9!

Here is my 1st Truck. Its a 88 Suburban 3/4ton with a stock drivetrain with 147,000 miles- TBI350/TH-400/NP-208 with 3:73 Gears 10 bolt front and 14 bolt SF Rear.

Heres the day i got it after lots of cleaning.









bought it as it sits. 6"lift/35s and repained. carfax shows m the 3rd owner with perfect record! it has never been in accedents always passed emissions and everything. (it is using blocks tho..4" shackle flips soon to come)

Has dual battery with isolator and all the towing stuff from the factory, the TBI350 is nothing to get up at so a LQ9 is most likely going in with heads/cam and a maggie along with a dana 60 front and a built 4L80E and some air lockers





So far Ive put a Dual steering stabilizer on it along with a Cobra 21 CB radio. I also put a ORD Sway bar correction/disconnect kit.

here is the disconnect kit. ORD did good with the 2" raise it made the truck handle a lot better.

I like the sway bar set up....it looks to be in very good shape and the interior is in great shape too! Hard to find ones that clean...

GOT the LMCTRUCK 5 pc LED roof lights on. they are BRIGHT! in a good way though. night pic isnt the best but they work.

there is a total of 15 holes all using a 1/8" bit, used clear 100% outdoor silicone on the holes and around the base of the mounts and a small amount where the lens goes onto the bases. threw out the POS switch LMCTRUCK included and got a black rocker switch with a blue LED in it to match the blue interior.
