Nice suburban. I always said if I ever sell my Bronco I will buy a 91 2500 4x4 burb. Have fun with it.

Hey all, I've been super busy, but i was able to get out and do a bit of wheeling after some of the last rains we got. we dont have many good trails around here for it (still in SD...ugh) but we make due with what we can find, and here are a couple of pics for you guys haha.

Thanks!Originally Posted by MrFlippers
yeah, I've always liked burbans, blazers, tahoes and of course the classic Broncos (ive had more fun with Broncos then i have anything else really). One of my friends just bought an 89 Burban tho that im really jealous of, he paid less for it then what i have in mine but his does have a cracked head gasket (so what, it just gives him an excuse to dig into the engine and build it up haha) but his is factory black with minimal rust (unlike my beast lol) and it has a 6 inch lift and 35 inch tires. Id say he got himself a dang good deal, that one will be a ton of fun! now him, me and my roommate can all go out in burbans once his is running lol!

Love your burb and there are places in SD to go I spend 2 summers ago running every inch of the black hills. Head west to the border go in by ranch A great times to be had.

yeah I bet theres a ton of places to go out west there, unfortunately im over on the east side by Sioux Falls, but my parents live over in Minnesota so one of these days im going to take my burban over there and find some trails haha.

Haha thanks Chiliwak! Ive been holding off on doing too much to the Burban since I sort of started a business landscaping and have been saving to buy that F350 I mentioned earlier. Gunna sell my Lincoln to finance that. But one of my buddies has a good set of rims that would look much better on this for sale cheap im gunna pick up soon, their inner part is like a blue powder coat right now tho so im gunna have that redone in black powdercoat with the chrome lip. also in store in the near future are some shorty headers and true dual exhaust and getting rid of the catalytic converters to help the old beast breath better. and of course a better set of tires for the new set of wheelsIm looking forward to it, just wish progress were a little quicker lol.

heres a quick picture of the rims I'm buying for the burban. I'll clean them up really nice and then have the blue part powder coated black.

Well I dont have any really current pictures of the interior, but it is since completed. I do need to clean it badly tho haha, blame it on my love of driving with the windows down on dirt roads. But all of the wiring is basically taped down to the bedlined floor, and a mossy oak rubber camo mat sits atop that, when you open the door you can still see some of the wiring, but i like it, makes it look nice and utilitarian, just the way I like it. but yeah, I painted the dash, took off the wood laminate on the drivers part of the dash, painted the door panels, and all of the other plastic trim etc. I love opening the door and smelling paint over dead mice and nest. But one day in the near future I want to replace all of the blue cloth in the doors with diamond plate aluminum, as well as do a matching aluminum drilled into the dash and to replace the faux wood trim all around. Also going to build two fold down tables for the barn doors with that as well. should be fun. anyway, enjoy a few more pictures lol.
