    1991 Suburban partout or complete with earlier year parts mixed in

    Yeah. I'm not sure if/when I might do the install, but I am still interested in them to go with the seat I have. Let me know what you're looking for as far as price and shipping. I'm in Massachusetts.

    3rd Row Install

    Yeah. I'm starting to rethink it, for the near term at least. Glad I have the seat if I ever want to go that route.

    3rd Row Install

    I saw your post about the rivets and it seems like a good route. Maybe the best thing would be to install the floor brackets from a donor, and get a new carpet for the back (saving the original if I ever want to show it as stock). I'm being overly cautious, but it was all original truck when I...

    3rd Row Install

    Scored a really nice 3rd Row seat out of a '79, but mine didn't come with one. My rear interior is near perfect, so I'm not in a big rush to go cutting holes in it to install the brackets (if I can find them). Trying to think of a way to fabricate something that uses the mounts that are on...

    Loud ping and shudder when turning

    Help! Just took my 79 C10 Suburban out. Heard a ping while turning (heard the noise before but couldn't pin down the source). Heard it while turning this morning (first drive in cold weather) and felt what I think it the rear shudder while turning. Limped it home slow and now I'm trying to...

    79 C10 Burban - Replacement for Stock Shocks

    Thanks, those Monroe shocks have really good reviews. I'll probably go with those. marks86, I'd be interested in knowing more about what you found when you started going through your truck. So far I've got rough idle from a carb that seems to be getting fouled (I'm guessing from old gas or...

    79 C10 Burban - Replacement for Stock Shocks

    Successfully made it to the Cape and back in the suburban. This was the first longer trip so I was able to get a better feel for it. I think even with the low miles, the original shocks are shot. I'm feeling a ton of spongy bounce from moderate road bumps. Feels like I'm being pushed all...

    '79 350 - Surface rust in engine bay

    Hi all, As I posted before, I recently picked up this C10 Suburban in generally great shape. The biggest problem I know of, is some pretty extensive surface rust in the engine bay. So far it seems to run well, but I will need to address it soon. The truck is basically 100% stock and...

    New 1979 Suburban Owner

    Hi All. I am new to the site, I was just referred here by someone over at gmfullsize.com. Recently purchased a 1979 Suburban. It appears to be a very low mileage truck. I was really doubtful, but all signs point to the truck having 12, 400 miles. It came with all the paperwork (bill of...
