What did you do to your Suburban Today?
See it in other sections and not here (Even did a search) well big girls need love too! So What did you do?
I cleaned out the interior of mine and found the missing "G" from my tailgate emblem. https://scontent-dfw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net...6d&oe=567CDA1D It was a nice small surprise |

Re: What did you do to your Suburban Today?
I washed mine. It takes a ladder to get the roof :dohh:
Fixed my leaky power steering hose. Custom work never ends. Spent some time tuning. I still have a stumble like a weak accelerator pump shot. Software tuning is new to me. |

Really all I used was 3m heavy duty rubbing compound applied by hand onto the body and wiped it down with terry cloth, probably not the easiest or most conventional way. But it works for me that's how I did my k5 and my gmc.

Re: What did you do to your Suburban Today?
Continued some work on Goldmember..
Moving to the rear, I began to disassemble the rear axle in prep for the C-Notch.. Well, Guess they don't make sockets as good as the old days, with a short breaker bar I ended up with these.. https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5709/...4711051c_z.jpg So out came the sawzall and plasma. went from this:to this: https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5679/...6344cced_z.jpg https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5644/...e3b8afdd_z.jpg https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5761/...f19bec12_z.jpg continued on attacking the rivets.. Man I hate rivets!! I ended the day after getting the passenger side mocked in. I only need to finish drilling a couple mounting holes, and painting all areas that will be inaccessible. Forgot to get pics of that.. |

Re: What did you do to your Suburban Today?
Been busy bringing the old girl back to life. been off the road since 1990. Today I rekeyed the rear lift gate key cylinder for $10 at our local locksmith.
In the last 2 weeks I have installed headers, glass packs, welded custom bent pipes to the outside of the frame to flowmasters that exit before rear tire, ran power to my power heated memory seats, adjusted secondaries on the carb, replaced dash bulbs, rebuilt the leaking right front wheel cylinder, got the air horn working, installed rear wheel spacers. Still lots to do. |

I originally put a 3.5/4 inch drop on the Burb but I don't like how low it sat in the rear so today I changed the rear coils to 2 inch lowering springs and I like how it looks now.
The pic on the top is 3.5/4 inch drop and the pic on the bottom is what the Burb looks like now with a 3.5/2 inch drop. |
Re: What did you do to your Suburban Today?
Looks good!:metal:
|
Re: What did you do to your Suburban Today?
Removed the inner fender wells and the radiator, ac compressor, couple other things from the front of the burb.
