Hi everyone,

Thanks for letting me join this forum. I’m Walter. I live in the Netherlands and have owned this Suburban since 2013. I drove it for about a year and a half at first. After that, it spent eight years in the garage while I worked on various things. Some welding, a new paint job (the old paint was in really bad shape), an engine rebuild (doing the work myself), cleaning the interior, and so on. We’ve been driving the Suburban again for the past five years, just tackling the occasional job here and there. I love this car!

I’m also really looking forward to finding good solutions on this forum. Regards!

Welcome Walter from the Pacific North West, north coast of Oregon. Nice burb, interesting how many squares made it to Europe. Glad you get to use it and hope it keeps bringing you pleasure.

Look forward to hearing about your adventures in it. Pictures are awesome too. Regards.

Question - does it have a rear axle sway bar on it?
