Hello Burbanites,

New member here, just wanted to make a brief introduction. I'm an Arizona resident looking to build a trailer puller from a 'Burb'. Lowered a few inches, late model drivetrain, very mild custom. Big chunk of generous budget (equivalent to a new one) will be spent on the interior.

Don't have a vehicle yet, just doing research, looking for parts, making a plan. Haven't ever done anything like this and will farm out much of the work over time, but I do want to tackle the chassis and drivetrain work. Not in a big hurry, completion in 2-3 years is entirely acceptable.

Anyway, the info here has been very helpful so far and I will be asking a few questions in individual threads.

Thanks for being such a great resource!

Dwight

Welcome! Good luck with your search. You are in the right part of the country to locate a decent Sub!
