If you have the money the Dakota is super cool. I have seen a few guys on here using them. I would love to have the extra $$ for them myself.

But, what about the ultra rare 3 3/8" fuel gauge?!

Re: 1969 SuperBurb build-up (Bagged and Blown!)

Either gauge looks good in my opinion. Gonna be one of the best burbs ever built when finished.

Id like to see a video of a huge line of burbs and panels cruising to the tune of Crazy Train. Maybe on the power tour someone could put that together. Oh, unless you are parting out your burb by then ... =)

The new Dakota set-up looks classy and goes along with the look of your suburban.
Where as the set-up you had made looks more like for a race truck which would go well with your 68 SWB.
As nice as your suburban is either would work.

Brotha Rob... your motivation is MY motivation!!! Starting to work on my red GMC Burb as we speak. She won't be ANYWHERE CLOSE to what you have, but I really appreciate your shared wisdom and continued inspiration! Carry on with the Burb porn!!!

Rob:

Just out of curiosity, how is your turning radius at that height in your most recent pic? How much higher would you need to raise the bags to get the height needed to clear the 20's on the front, if at all? Thanks.

CLT, with it fully aired out, I will probably have limited turning radius, but to be honest I haven't tried it yet. I'll get back to you on that one.
