I finally have another square and wanted to say hi.

1985 K20 6.2 4x4 TH400 NP208 Suburban
50K original miles, I verified with the DMV since I didn't really believe the clock hadn't been rolled but being the third owner it all checked out. I have started on some rust repair of the rockers and changing out all the fluids. Started with the engine oil which didn't look to have been changed for quite a while since then I have moved on the to the front and rear diffs, transfer case, transmission filter and will soon be doing a radiator flush, power steering and brake flush. AC does not work needs to be redone which will be later on this year or next. I want to put a lift on it just not sure what I want to go with since I won't be doing too much off road with it. My son loves this burban I couldn't imagine how big this must be to a 2 year old. Any tips for lifts which no matter what will be pain to put on I am sure since every part of it will be rusted. I didn't know these were made without a third row which I would like. I need to do away with the carpet box that is in the back and add the third row just not sure if any mounting brackets would be there.

Welcome to the site. Nice Suburban you have there. Good deal on the low miles as well. Don't see too many 4x4 Diesels around. I like the color too.

Thanks, for my first tank of gas I got around 15Mpg, hopefully now after doing some much needed maintenance it improves a bit but no complaints so far on the diesel.

I almost didn't see it had a hood ornament - extra points there.

Thanks Tony, I will probably be putting mud tires on it as soon as I decide on the lift I want.
