GMT820 Yukon Cargo Length to Front Seats

[PHeller]

Looking for the length from the rear hatch to the front seats on a 2000-2006 Yukon. This would be the 4dr NON-XL version. Just a basic GMC Yukon.

I'm wanting a vehicle I can lay down in the back of, and I'm debating between something like an Astro Safari or GMT800 Yukon or Suburban. I really don't want (and cant find) a Suburban in my price range, which is cheap.

Should be about 76". Can't be arsed to go outside and measure it at this late hour. I know the Tahoe is 22" shorter than the Suburban and the Suburban is a little over 98" from the back of the front seats to the inside of the rear hatch. Both are GMT400 series, '00-'06.


My '02 Sub with 8' 2x4s in it.

note that the 2nd row seats stow by folding the butt part up and forward and the backrest portion down flat. So you lose about 5-6" to the seat bottom. So call it 70" unless you have a storage drawer platform that increases the height to match the stored 2nd row seat.

How hard would it be to remove the seat bottom?

each second row seat is held to the floor with (4) 18mm bolts and a lot of fiddly plastic covers and small screws. It's pretty tedious and they are big and awkward to get out the door.

Removing JUST the seat bottom, a pair of bolts at its pivot. Not too terrible a chore if you are prepping a bed space.
