Hey,

Just bought a 1970 Suburban, 4 wheel drive, 350ci, 4 speed. I am going to pick it up on Wednesday. Can anyone give me an idea of what to expect as far as axle ratios and what type rear and front ends.

Bought this one on eBay and will have to drive it back home about 1000 miles. What kind of mileage to expect and any other info will be appreciated.

I already have a 1963 C-20 and only get 10 to 12 mpg, but it has the old Eaton with 4.56 gears. I have a new rear for it but have not gotten around to putting it in yet.

Thanks in advance for any info on the new Burb.
Dan
