Anyone else here have a 60-66 4WD Suburban? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

burbluv · 03-07-2011, 04:23 AM

I am trying to get the ride height on my burb narrowed down. It seems pretty high to me and that is before I get the tires on it. I would like some 33's but right now it is running 31's. I am looking to add another 4 inches with a rack on the roof like blown240's. My problem is my clearance is about 80 inches to the opening of my garage and I am already barely clearing it without the rack and I feel like I am already riding high. Does anyone mind measuring what they are at or might have some paperwork I could use as reference.
Thanks,
AJ
I will also ask this on the 4X4 forum side but they are not specific to 60-66.
Thanks again

mine is up on blocks right now, but I can remember touching the warning bar going on b.c. ferries which was 7' (84"). I had 36" tires on then went to 33" and you were always to take a chance with any o/head parking and you now try and find an open parking lot in any major city
