the stock 2006 6.0 does ok but only about 9-10 mpg the truck is heavy . but if I had it to do it over again I would like to have a ls with more horse power a bigger cam and heads would really wake up this 6.0 but I am happy with what I got

Has anyone tried to put a folding suburban rear seat in the 4 door cab?
It don't look like it would work very well at all.
Any Ideas besides using a original seat?
Thanks

I have both a Suburban and Crew and have look it over. Won't work without major floor surgery. The Sub floor is flat under the seat until the rear floor. The Crew is raised to clear the gas tanks.

Thanks for the info Cheepin,I am glad I saved a rear seat for this thing,when I bought the seats I was wondering about the fit,and tried the small section last week,HMMMMMMMMMM,I guess I will sell the rear one,and order seat covers for the bench rear.

cheepin 12-26-2016 12:43 AM

Re: How about some pics of '73-'87 Crew Cabs Part II
 
My front bench in the crew was decent but the rear was hammered. I had a pair of buckets,console and middle seat from a Suburban. I put the buckets,console in and looked at using the middle seats. But after looking I ended up putting the front bench in back. Which kind of sucks since it doesn't fold forward.

I still may try and install the middle seats at some point. But that will be after I remove the bed and build a tube bed. And remove the tanks and put a single blazer or suburban tank in. Would be nice to have a flat area for carrying gear in the cab.

Picture of my 1986 K30 Scottsdale taken today while I delivered a parts 1971 C10 to a friend. I am sitting on the north side of Bear Butte, which is located just outside of Sturgis, SD.

Anyone know if this sold? The guy who owned it was in Asheville, NC I believe. I made an offer, was turned down and then 6 months later I saw it for sale for less than my offer. But at that point I was set on pre-1980 crewcut.

I saw this truck setting on the north side of Marshalltown Iowa last Friday. It looks pretty nice to me.

I like it! I'm digging the old school licks with the reverse on the hood.

Wow!!!! Just finished looking through the original thread, and this one, only took 2 weeks lol. Some amazing trucks on here for sure. Can't wait to start in on mine. Just picked up a 78 C20 crew for my Valentine's Day gift. Gotta love the wifeys and her gifts.
Plan is to convert to 4x4 short bed coil sprung 8"ish lift with 37s and a cummins swap.
The last one is along the looks of what I'm wanting.

I'm in process of looking for one now to do similar. Very interested in the short bed conversion as well. Searchin for the past 3 weeks. have about 8 to 10k available so would love to hear from anybody if they know of a decent one available. Location is not much of a big deal.

I've loved these squarebody pickups for years now, especially in crew cab and long bed form.

Would love to get my hands on a 4x4 long bed crew cab with a manual transmission, but that seems like a tall order that's unlikely without flatout building it myself, which I just don't have the time to do!

I'm also more partial to the earlier '73-80 style front fascia versus the early '80s squared lights and more narrow face.

Actually, it seems like a 50/50 build of 4spd and auto crew 4x4's that I run across. Kinda the same with big blocks and small blocks. If you stay in the 73-80 your looking at small block only. Ive had plenty of 81-91's and always wanted a "round eye" square crew 4x4 so I bought my 76. You just don't see those around like the 81-91 style. But I love them all!!!! :metal:

I'm totally okay with the small block! There's always room for upgrading in the future.

I just want something that will be a solid work truck that's super simple to work on with no fancy computers or anything like that.

You really think you're going to find something in 3 weeks? Took me two years and then like lightning, there were three for sale at once.

They are tough to find, I sold mine in one day getting what I wanted for it.
