78 sub build (sub is gone)

[mnstrburbon]

On a good note the front suspension, steering, and 60 work awesome I'm so happy with the ride and flex cant wait to get the real shocks on it, It can only get better.

closest thing to poser pic's

Nope im sure it won't be. I almost swapped out the doors and repainted the whole truck nice and glossy before this trip glad i waited.

 

[mnstrburbon]

I weighed it before the last trip and 1/2 tank full of gear it was 6300

I love the turn signals in the grill, they look so much better there.

Looking good. A set of longer and tuneable shocks in the front will make it really impressive.

Here you go still working flawlessly everyone that sees them wants a set or is getting a set best money i have spent yet.

got a link to the sellers store? this linkis dead

 

[mnstrburbon]

I don't have the sellers store info , but here is what i found by searching ( 7" round headlights HID)

These ones have a led outer ring and hid driving bulb, i believe they work independently of each other so more lighting options. I like these and would try them , they where not available when i bought mine.

This is the same but different seller get what ever color bulb you like, mine came with 6,000 so they are white the 8,000 have a slight blue tint, and the 10,000 are rice rocket blue you're choice same price.( MAKE SURE YOU GET CLEAR LENSES A COUPLE FRIENDS GOT TINTED ON ACCIDENT AND THEY WHERE NOT AS BRIGHT AS MY CLEAR LENSES.)

hey man nice burb. any new updates. also do you have any shots of it completely flexed out?

 

[mnstrburbon]

Not much of an update but soon this next week i plan to install the psc ram for hydro assist and i am widening the rear inner fender wells, and got some grab handles to mount in the inside. After the rear is done i can flex it out better but it uses every bit of every shock travel. I also want to lower it maybe 2 inches don't know yet but custom front springs are probably going to happen.

[y5mgisi]

Dont they make 52" lowering springs? You could possibly use those.

 

[mnstrburbon]

I am using 4" blazer lift springs so stock 52" springs might be OK but i made the pack custom i am using know. I also tried a dever 56" pack but the shackle angle was bad and hitting the frame. I want to move the axle forward so a custom set is in order i think. I am going to have ATLAS springs make them for me if the day ever comes.

Have you gotten anywhere new on the burban?

 

[mnstrburbon]

Well i finally put the sub back on the project list.. So here is a little update.

All these mods only took me 6 months to do..

I replaced the head lights and sealed them better this time rtved the boots to the head light housings. I cut the holes in the head light buckets bigger so the boot and all can stay on the light and still fit flush when installed. I previously just put the boot to the back of the bucket and water got in to the lights and the chrome came off the reflectors.

I have also had the psc steering ram and stuff sitting here since early march so i finally got it on and plumed. I got the psc can with a AN fitting on it for the stock pump and got the reservoir from summit racing. So its all hooked up and working good plumed the cooler in line also.

Nice!

Nice!

Thanks for the nudge and the props its been a long road with this rig, sometimes i stray off too many projects and hoddies. I had it listed on craigs list for sale a month or so ago no serious offers so it will stay.Next on the list all new doors finish the sliders, and heater, add front shock hoops with 16' travel 2.5 shocks, lower 2 inches all around, widen rear wheel tubs, ADD Radio.

I'm also starting the build on my new tow rig 86 3+3 crew cab dually all stock, bought from the original owner 95,000 original miles 454/th400/205. Swapping in a low mileage 454 and the 4l80e to replace the current Knocking 454 and no 2nd or 3rd th400.
