    "CHUCK" 1998 Chevy Suburban K2500 Build

    I will keep that in mind... Right now it's on different front and back and seems fine but the larger size and mods might exacerbate issues. Thanks for the heads up. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

    Thanks for the notes, I'll keep that in mind. I know that cranking the t bars will destroy the front end if you go too much, so I have been considering lift kits...I'd rather go that direction and keep things from wearing out too quick, but I don't intend on crawling up anything too crazy.

    Finally got my rig to get started, and he's a beast! Lovingly named after my wife's great uncle because he was an enormous (6'3", 370), rough-around-the-edges, outdoorsy lover of American horsepower, this boy's currently pretty much stock. Going to be using him to teach my 3 boys (14,12, 10)...

    KSL.com also gets posts for southern Idaho, western Wyoming, and all of Utah rather than SLC. Lots of southern Utah rigs pop up on here...great for red rock and desert.
