Re: Yet to be named... ‘78 K10 Suburban

U-joints. Ugh. 5 hours to get the front replaced. Rears are going much easier. Should have done the CV while I was under the front...

Yeah, snow and forest service roads. No “serious” 4x4ing. Just average country family 4wd situations. Sounds like the full-time AWD will be fine for that. I guess that leaves the highway miles... which I will guess will be fine with the AWD rather than 2wd.

I saw your ‘90 ‘burb posted. Glad you’re not keeping the 20s. 3/4 Ton 8-lug will get you an OE-style 16” rim so you can run stock caps and E load range all terrains. Wish it was as simple for 6-luggers. 15x8 would be ok, but they aren’t currently in stock.

New issue. Cab and tail supports too far gone to pass Pennsylvania state inspection. Ugh. Guess the truck will sit until I have the cashola to get that fixed.
