    Any Houston Members do Differential work. Who wants to play with my rear end???

    There is a member of the 400/OBS forum in East Houston, who has a lot of the tools...but he doesn't want to do work on other people's trucks just yet.

    Build thread. Sad Sack Suburban

    They had a Russet Metallic that looks like a dark orange. Our '79 Burb was dark brown metallic, but darker than this one, if that's a brown. I know in '80 the dark brown metallic is more root beer ish than the '81 dark brown metallic, because of how our '81 Sierra was after it got a scratched up...

    Build thread. Sad Sack Suburban

    Down here, they rot around the rear AC on the right rear corner. Even with a good back glass or barn doors. I've seen them with holes back there, almost as big as a human head....

    Build thread. Sad Sack Suburban

    Navy blue and silver, that's the combo our '84 Burb was. Ours was 2wd and a 350, also had a 700R4. I think, in the 13 years we had it, the trans got rebuilt. Dad and I went through it, bumper to bumper, over those 13 years...the paint had gotten bad especially on the roof, but it started up...

    Where to buy LS motor?

    If you're willing to come to the Houston, Texas area, I have a 6.0 in a 2006 Yukon XL Denali, complete vehicle with a 4L65E and 3.73s in the diffs. Denali is AWD but you would have everything you need to transfer the engine and trans included, like the wiring harness and computers. If...

    Show me your 8 lug wheels!

    2013 I think? They came out with a new design Burb, a "2015" in 2014. As far as I know, all the civilian ones are 1500s.

    90 GMC Suburban

    Cool! Those would look good on my crew cab too..... If you decide to use these, be sure to get the correct lug nuts. Most aftermarket wheels use a shouldered nut with a washer, not the conical base lugs like the factory steel wheels use. And I'd suggest investing in a set of wheel lock nuts too.

    King ranch seat in the sqaurebody.

    I had a 2001 King Ranch supercrew truck for a little bit, drove it till it remembered it was a Phord and was starting to lose the transmission. In radiator cooler rotted and turned the fluid muddy..... The seats were comfortable, and had good leather on them despite being over 20 years old...

    90 GMC Suburban

    Looks just like the one we had except ours was light metallic blue on the sides. Same running gear and equipment though! If you need/want an extra set of those wheelcovers, I have a set for sale. I restored the paint on the emblems, and never got them back on the Burb.

    2 tone paint line

    On the 73-80 trucks, the two tone side panel lines follow the body lines on the top and front end. The lower line is indicated by the side trim. When the second generation front end came out for '81, the basic shape of the two tone panels is the same, but a tape stripe above the body line is the...

    Assortment of square body stuff for sale.

    Makes sense. I know I've never seen another one. There could've been regional trim packages too, so if it wasn't available in your area, prolly be pretty hard to know about it? I can negotiate a little bit on the price too....

    Have i decoded this VIN correctly????

    Well at least there you're ahead. This axle upgrade is something that would be done on a K10 if the owner wants to do a lot of 4 wheeling.

    Have i decoded this VIN correctly????

    I'd be concerned about the crack in the cab near the corner of the rear window. Might be Bondo or rust under that paint; paint can crack from extreme temperature shifts too.
