88GMCtruck's never ending 88 GMC build thread

I would say keep it more geared towards being a multipurpose rig. You already have a huge start in that direction.

Keep it usable and multi-purpose build rig. Very interested in your thoughts tho making it a full dune rig?

Well, i'm always going to have it be street legal. But if i gear it towards a dunes rig i'll likely be trying to lighten it up more: fiberglass fenders, remove inner bed and build a expanded metal version, pre-runner bumpers, full cage, maybe even long travel suspension.... Then again I can always build a different rig or get better quads.

At the same time I would like to do just the opposite and add a winch, onboard air, cage, etc.

Had to lock the hubs in this weekend. Decided to find some snow over the weekend. Didn't get much but it rained previously, so it was a bit slick to drive around on, and the roads on the way home were snow/slush mix. Freeway speeds in that crap with the trailer is fun

This truck has always been one of my favorites. Like Ive mentioned before, one of the only Reg cab Stepsides Ive seen with tows. And then a camper shell to boot. I have the shell for mine but it is full fiberglass, no windows. And reading over this has my finger on the purchase button for some tows for mine. Loving the roof marker lights.

Im also wanting to do the SAS and then later on probably the 454 like you did as well. I will keep these favorited for future reference!

do you have any more pics of the exhaust? more specifically, the tailpipes? wanted the yukon tails to exit like that but my muffler guy said it wouldn't work.

I say show rig, it is so well built, i'd hate to see it wrecked in the dunes or crawling
