Burb with wheels

Hopefully next week I'm getting a '88 burb, w/350 700r4, power everything only 97,000 original miles, and it come from oklahoma. Problem is this thing is bone stock, down to the factory wheels. If anyone has a burb with wheels on it can i see them? I'm not sure what I would like on it, but don't wan't the stock wheels. Hopefully I'll pick it up this friday and I'll post pics of it. Thanks in advance, JOE.

Re: Burb with wheels

Sorry forgot to say. 1/2 ton 2wd. My bad. It was owned by a funeral home to haul vaults to gravesites, it's in immaculate condition, but it has a vibration at 35 to 55mph which feels like it something in the driveline. Maybe driveshaft off balance? Trans. mount? Have you had any experience like this? Thanks, JOE

Re: Burb with wheels

Tobiahr, It was used to haul the vaults for graves around. I figured start with the u-joints first. Kinda like a cheap insurance.

Re: Burb with wheels

Thats sweet. I agree something besides stock has to go on. I will try to dig up some Burb pics I got on my computer for you so you can get some more ideas.
