Hi everybody,
I have been reading through this website for awhile as I have had my new to me suburban for a few months. I bought a 1997 k2500 suburban w/ the vortec 7.4 for the purpose of building a awesome looking rig to pull my BBQ trailer for my business.
It is in both rough and good shape. paint like any typical obs is shot and has several leaks that I am addressing; however, lacks any serious rust (that I have seen so far).
I have already done some work to it such as transmission gasket and filter kit, new barn door seals, new front grill, light housings, cheap tow mirrors, and some place holder stock wheels while I sort out what I want this truck to run on.
I am also working on the interior; the previous owner was doing some heavy mudding on this rig and so the entire interior is going to be torn out and cleaned with carpets being replaced. I have started with the rear end of the vehicle; I plan to build custom panels for the back with a spot for storage and a sub box. I also plan to delete the custom rack on top; as I think its ugly and pointless with the huge 6 inch lift this has.
