You probably already know the specs on mine but here goes….
- 4” front springs with ORD HD shackles. Unsure of spring brand as they were on my K10 when I bought it back in 1996
- ORD 4” rear shackle flip
- Bald Kumho 315/75R16 tires borrow from the K10 for a while
Same lift but with Superswamper Q78x16 tires. Same set up as Fred's cheap burb build in Peterson's 4Wheel & Off-Road
Wow that is nice. So clean and pristine with the white paint. The stock rims suite it well. Some dig-dish caps would also look cool on this rig.
4 inch lift and 305/70/16

Thanks! I've never been where you live, but I bet I'd like it better there, lol. It was 6 degrees here the other morning... don't like that at all.
Have you ever looked through my 1988 V10 Suburban's build thread? It has had a bunch of different tires on it.

Stock in front, 2" block in rear, 31x10.5x15's.
Same with 1975 K20 axles and 245/70R16 tires.
Same but with 33x12.30x15" tires.
Front OEM 3 pack of springs with a 1" zero rate.
Still with front OEM 3 pack springs and 1" zero rate and 2" lift block in rear, but on 35x12.50x16.5" tires.
Same suspension, but with 37x12.50x16.5" Hummer take offs.
Same as above, but with 1" body lift and new body mounts.
Still 1" body lift, s pack front springs with 1" zero rate, and 2" rear lift block, but now with H2 takes offs (315/70R17" tires).
Later today if I remember I can take another picture of it with a Dana 60 front axle now.

I think I'm going the 1 inch body/ zero rate rout also. That way the next set of tires can be 35s.
I left room on my u bolt threads to add a 1" zero rate for a later wheel/tire increase if needed. it'd look weird done now with 33's. when ever I find 17" 6 or 8 blt wheels I like, I'll step up to a set of 305/70/17's

I currently have the 2.5" ORd shackle flip kit I got it from someone here but they were suppose to be 4" I have them sitting in a box ready to swap them out with ORD but I am hesitant to do so because I am still not sure if I want to go to 4+ inches.
I like the 3" range. that kinda of "is it stock or inst it" look.

The designs alright..... I just want something else
I wish they had the nomads I got in the right size. But eveything 17" has deep backspacing. i'm running 3.75" on 10" wheels now and like where they sit. All the 17's are like 9" wide with 4.75" or more bs
