Got the 31" BFGs on there, tinted the windows, and put a new grill on. Also put a new radiator on there. Suspension and brakes are next.

Looks good, who did the tint? How much? Going to get mine done after I replace the weatherstripping.

I put 15% all the way around. PM me when you're ready, I have a guy. He normally does houses, but he'll do a truck for cash. He has real talent - necessary on these old trucks.

I love this old Burb - even the wife is usng it for school runs now. I have yet to see another one on the road.

Re: Updated pics

That's one clean and good looking Suburban. What type of tint did you use? Those tires really look good on that vehicle.

Re: Updated pics

Llumen tint, I think? Drove it 65 miles across Texas highways this morning; did 68 without a worry. I'd have done 75 but I really need to tighten up the steering as much as I can before allowing myself to just "let it go". Great truck - love it.

Re: Updated pics

31x10.5 - I don't want to lift it, and I don't like wide tires. Seemed like a good compromise.

Very nice burb! The stock look is my favorite. I used to drive my ol' burb all over Houston....in the early 80's

I owned the Exxon Station near voss and I 10 back then and always had some old iron parked outside.
