@zgfiredude you are correct but its out of the rain and cold....the shop is a 25 x 30 and both of my vehicles are almost 20 ft long. Here is the burb. When I start the SAS I'll swing the rear of the burb towards where the camera is and it should give me some decent working room.

Then my new to me high mileage expedition decided to start weeping from the water pump... found transmission fluid in the radiator and a severely over filled transmission...so the burb is running daily duty with a blown front diff and a g80 rear that won't unlock. My first water pump had the...

Started stripping the avalanche axle down for new bearings and seals. The innards look pretty good. I also cut off the sway bar mounts and oem panhard bracket. I will be installing a raised one for a JK.

I really set myself up for a fall....I registered for a rally tun in April so I've got to get the sas done by then....

More parts arrived just in time for Christmas.... this is all the joints for. Both front and rear axles also for the steering.

the project is still a go. been gathering parts slowly. I plan on replacing bearings and seals on the axles before they go in... also the current g80 in the burb has locked solid and I haven't been driving it much.

So the plugs do suck but a heat gun makes quick work of softening the glue. I had to wrap mine in aluminum foil and use a torch to soften mine.

the house is 99% finished, enough to start ordering parts and making other purchases. I picked up a front and rear track bar from someone who is making parts for this swap #tahoverlanding on Instagram he has done this swap on a Tahoe and have had it out for over a year now with no problems...

Im getting closer and closer to finishing the house and getting to work on the SAS...also ordered a maxi trac awning from napa should be here tomorrow... 100 bucks and parts interchange with the ARB awnings.

Congratulations to him for getting out of cali!

Pretty :poop:y if they banned him for covid posts....if so did everybody that posted on that thread get the boot too? @rayra is a wealth of information on the gmt800 and personally its BS if they did. @dindyjerret can you shed some light? I think what we are wondering is maybe he hot sick and...

Thanks we're getting closer I need to tape and mud a ceiling spray and knock down paint lay laminate and carpet and we are done...

Ive wondered the same! I've even messaged him to no answer ?

Sorry for lack of updates but I was forced to do a renovation on the house and the price of lumber has eaten all my suburban budget too. Thats the only picture I have that I can upload all others where to big.

Also got the tahoverlanding caliper spacers to make the dodge calipers fit the Chevy rotors.

Picked up the gt5 rear axle to match the d44 front....less than 100k on it the g80 locks quick by hand which my current one does not. The fluid I dumped out wasn't even black. Pretty happy with it for less than 2 bills.

LBL is on my hit list as soon as I get the SAS done, I hope to have it done in time to make it back to the rendezvous in the Ozarks in October.

And after getting used to the suburban it'll be hard to go smaller...if I get the chance to start over it will be a van or excursion.

Just for laughs.… Seen at the local big box lumber store.
