Re: 1988 Suburban "V Rig" Gets Cummins Power

We pulled the trans Tuesday, got everything swapped over wednesday morning, and my trans jack crapped out! So off to Harbor Freight my bro went. He got back and we stabbed the trans and tcase. I started putting it back together, then went to work. After work I went back and we finished it up around 11:30. Took it for a test drive, and it was pretty sweet. Trans shifts so nice, the truck drives awesome, especially considering we were having 25mph + winds, it has plenty of power and cruises down the road at low RPM's. I'm betting it should do really well for mileage. I think my 76 might have to get lifted now..... It is gone back to the owner now! I didn't get any vids tough.
