- Follow along as I turn this 30 year old Suburban into a reliable daily driver.
This Suburban is the truck I learned to drive with. My dad bought it with 86,000 miles for $7500 many many years ago. In the years after 9/11 gas prices went way up, so it wasn't a practical car anymore, so dad bought a car for my mom and the Suburban sat in the yard for 12ish years. When my dad passed in 2018, I was given the suburban and decided to bring it back to glory again.
This was an absolute pleasure to watch. I own an 89 v2500 and its a dreaml. Not perfect but amazing in every way!! Thanks for sharing an amazing Gem!!! I would love to see more of what you have and will do to yours!!
Nice, I have a 89 burb, slowly trying to restore life
Looking forward to the next video. I have the same suburban. Mine is a GMC tho. Mine sat for 10 or 11 years. The list of repairs and replacements ive done is long. Almost everything. But I love it. Can't wait to see what you do with taillights.
How’s your build coming along?
I just picked one up as well
Just bought a 1990 Suburban R2500. Has a few issues with windscreen wiper control, electric windows, cruise control, lock switches, rear door lock, rear head liner and fuel cap. However the 454 still runs sweet, though it's thirsty. Best thing is, only 72k miles on the clock.
1973-1991 generation, not many of them around anymore like there use to be back in those days.
Nice job so far! I have an 88. Good luck!
LMC truck accessories...they have just a out everything
Yeah their prices just tend to be on the high side
Yes yes ...I agree
great video, keep it up.
May I just note by the way that it is 2022 now and this suburban still runs great. It needed some front end stuff but the engine and transmission work great. My brother doesn't drive it every day anymore thanks to fuel prices but it does still run great and he uses it for towing despite my offer of using a newer truck. This is why we stick to chevy.
Cool ride
Great video!
Might have figured it out by now but there is that brass ground strap that needs to be grounded as the motor mounts in rubber bushings
HAHAHA The horn sounds just like mine
Came across this by accident Love the slight comic commentary. Had an 89 Blazer and I had the muffler cut off and had a straight pipe behind the cats. Great sound esp with the air cleaner cover upside down
Its a place down in dallas that has at least 7 burbans and other 80s chevys
Gr8 video love that you’re giving it a 2 life keep up the good work love the square body’s
