stock height with 31x10.50 wheels
Here's a pic of my old blazer 32x10.50 on 15x10 wheels, no lift. Never had any problems with rubbing.. I agree it would be better/easier to swap axles than mess with the lift... you may even be able to trade your axles for the ones you need- heffalump

Mufflers - need input/advice
If the manifolds don't leak then you could cut the pipe off where it turns under the truck and build the new exhaust from there... I would only suggest doing this if the donut gaskets and pipe are still in good shape tho...- heffalump

Mufflers - need input/advice
My suburban has a generic turbo muffler on the factory single exhaust. It's stock quiet but does have a deep sound. I'm planning on doing duals with flowmasters one day. I would suggest something like a three chamber Flowmaster, I had them on a 88 Silverado and they sounded great and where...- heffalump

What have you done to your square lately??
Haven't done much to the suburban lately, most of my free times been spent on the 48 project. I did work on it a little yesterday, finally got the inside all cleaned up, fixed the CD player and added 2 10 inch pioneers in the back to replace the blown factory ones.. Surprisingly the front ones... -
What have you done to your square lately??
Finally decided to do something about the porch sized rear bumper on the suburban... Not completely finished but almost. I'll do a new thread on it when I'm done, already a huge improvement.... -

New Project.. 48 chevy ratrod
Kinda undecided about the stacks... The headers have a flange welded on the bottom so you can bolt on an exhaust, thought about making them functional or putting side pipes on it... If I do go with the stacks I'm gonna do them a little different so they match the truck..- heffalump

Took the brush guard off the burb and cleaned off all the rust and shitty paint... Re-painted it with a good primer and bedliner in a can... Turned out looking good with only a little texture to the paint -

I knew about the fuel door issue, was wondering about the rear doors... Anyone know of a company that makes the fenders specially for the suburbans?
