Lowered Burb
Hey guys I'm new to the board and was wondering if any of you could help me out. My son and I have a 1991 Suburban that we are looking to trick out a bit. It's not a 4x4 (which I would lift instead) but it's a well kept 2wd so were looking to do a slight drop 3/4 and put some 20's on it. I have seen a TON of 92' thru 04' like this but very few 74-91's.
I'm wondering if any of you have pics or know of anyone that has one. Here are some pics of our 91' Any help is appreciated. |

Wow your right they do look small for 18's.. Yeah 20's will make a big difference.
Who makes the drop kit ? Is it a 4/6? |

Hi guys,
Nice to see other guys with older custom burbs. I have a 90 with 2.5" springs in front and 4" shackle and hanger kit in back. I am runnin 15's with 245/60 front and 275/60 in back. Hoping to get 20's soon! I wish I had some pics, maybe put some up later. Hey beermonkey did you purchase that roll pan or make it yourself? Steel or fiberglass? I want to install a roll pan on mine. Looks good man!! |

Hey Dropped90Burb,
yeah if you could post some pics that would be great. It's hard to find pics of older custom Burbs. |

it came with the roll pan its a sir michals (at least thats what the sticker that was on it when i bouhgt the truck says) somebody molded it in , looks like it was done many years ago, very dented and banged up, ill be putting a new one on when it gets painted. as for tirs size i have snow tires on it now. the rear are 225/75/15's and they tuck about 3/4 of an inch and the fronts are 235/70/15's and have about 2 1/2's inches to the fender

I would like to get a roll pan with the hidden hitch setup because I want to retain towing capabilities. But with the gas tank there I dont know if I can do it. What do you think? |
