    1st Gen Sequoia vs GMT800 Suburban Advice

    First, thank you for your service. I have a 2001 k2500 Suburban with the 8.1, 4L80E, G80 locker and 4:10 gears. It has 219,500 miles on it and I wouldn't hesitate to drive it anywhere. If yours is going to be an overland build I would say go with the Suburban because if you should break...

    95 GMC K2500 Suburban Westfalia Pop Top Conversion

    That and it adds a lot of weight. I scrapped a truck a while back and they deducted #150 because it had a sprayed in liner. (Rhinoliner) Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    Salvage Suburban project

    I am on some pretty serious pain meds at the moment so maybe I just can't see it, but what is the plate on the driver's side back door window? Did you run into insurance issues with the salvage title? Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk

    GMT400 Suburban as Base Overland Rigs?

    I've got a similar 2001 k2500 8.1 4:10 gears. It works perfectly for me for overlanding/camping. I don't rock crawl with it so I don't need a ******** ton of flex. I may go the Kryptonite and RCV line if I win the lottery some day [emoji1787] I have Cooper ATP 285/75/16 on it and have been more than...

    Tire Recommendations for GMT800 Tahoe?

    I have Goodyear Duratracs 265.75.16 on my 01 k2500 suburban. They have around 35,000 miles on them and I have been pretty impressed with them. I ran BFG ATs since 96 but they were out of them so I got the duratracs. I got them for $865.00 after a $50 rebate.

    Anyone Else Reliant on Blood Thinners or daily Medication?

    I know several people park on the US border crossing and walk into Mexico where you don't need a prescription. I'm not sure how much they buy in one shot but to knowledge they only go once a year while attending the RTR in Quartzite, Az in January. More information on this can be found on Bob...

    What are some of the most reliable old vehicles?

    It will not cause new oil leaks, but it will make existing leaks more apparent as it reduces dinosludge from clogged leaks. But, this is a good thing in my books, it shows you what needs work.

    Why so few GM Builds?

    Why do you prefer the GMT400 over the 800?

    Keep Tahoe or step up to Suburban?

    Make your learning mistakes on your current beater. Than step up to a burb when you have a better idea of what you need.

    Why so few GM Builds?

    Not snobby enough for most in this lifestyle. These vehicles really are just as easy to upgrade as any of the rest. Get rid of the torsion bars and go with a spring over set up. The aftermarket parts available for them is plentiful and diverse. I started looking for another vehicle to fashion...

    2000 Suburban K1500 budget low lift with 37"s

    Best thing you can is take the 37"s off until you get k2500 axels.

    Keep Tahoe or step up to Suburban?

    I have an 2001 K2500 8.1L 4l80e G80 locker. If you want to do a burb, I would say go with a 2500. They come with everything on a Z71 package as far as skid plates and bilsteins with the auto ride system. All that and the way mine is equipped it is rated to pull 12,000 pounds.

    Why so few GM Builds?

    I have had several Suburbans through the years. I wouldn't drive anything else. My suburban at the moment is a 2001 k2500 8.1L 4l80e and G80 locker. Sleeping in it on a rainy trail is great.
