Yes, these are the Boss 338's.

I changed the front disk brakes over to 88 and up truck disks, so I did not have to worry about the rim hub to rotor hub interference.
Not sure if Boss has fixed that yet......

I'll try to get all my photos before and after any make my own thread soon.

How does it ride with the 6" coils? I like the stance but I would probably need to add tow bags to the rear for towing my little Airstream.

HighlanderBrad,

I LOVE your suburban! it is my favorite one i have seen yet. Flat black exterior and red/ white interior in an awesome combination. And the boss 338's are also my fav. Good job! you have great taste!

here is a picture of mine. it was already painted when i got it, or else i would have went with the same paint scheme as yours. I still plan on getting 20" 338's in the future.

I did mine with dropped springs all around, dropped spindles in front, and air shocks in the rear so I can tow. It works. Drive it daily. Just put a fresh motor in it. Workin on a 2 wd Blazer. When the Blazer is street ready, the sub is for sale.

I haven't made the rear yet and am probably going to go with the ones that 67cheby is getting ready to sell for the front.

AzDon · 06-01-2011, 11:14 PM
