Re: Stock front axel on a K20??

Yea, for my purposes and a relatively stock ride height (32s), I think a stock-ish 4wd set up in front makes sense from a financial, logistical, and spares availability stand point unless someone has an argument to the contrary.

From what I've read, with the Suburban's extremely long wheels base, the trailing arm rear will not be a limiting factor in my intended use. If I was going to go lifted, and do more serious off-roading, it would probably be prudent to switch to leafs in the rear.

Given that it will be primarily a daily driver, pulling double duty as a tow-rig, and lastly used for light duty camping.....gravel trails, logging roads, etc, I think the stock 4wd front with the stock 2wd rear will work just fine. Again, Im very open to input/criticism.

This is the height/stance I'm going for....
