No, sorry. Most are just aluminum or steel spacers, they may have some actual longer coilover designs but I have not researched them.

The Yukon is nice, I would look for some GMC wheel caps. I never warmed up to the Hummer hour hand center caps.
It looks well maintained, does it have a full floater out back or a semi-float 14 bolt? Leather and heated seats?
The heated seats spoil you, nothing like having a crummy day in the cold and jumping in those heated seats!

That's the "Fake CTIS" I believe. ;) (CTIS: Central Tire Inflation System.) I think the H1's had real CTIS but the H2's just got the fakey-fake wheels. Still I kind of like it - it's different. I hate my ugly wheels.

My driver's heated seat doesn't work (common problem) but the wife loves hers. Loving the leather, too. I think I'm going to enjoy long drives in this! So far my longest was a drive to Breckenridge and back (about 4 hours round trip) but it was nice!

Well I finally got my home-brew Mk1 awning setup out for a trial, it's as good a pic as any. Most of the stuff I've done so far is interior / hidden. Trying to add capabilities but keep it looking as stock as possible.

86burban, What are the future plans and what is its current status?
Check out bfdiesel for his Suburban build, might look familiar!
I found a K1500 diesel in Pasadena last week with the same color combo.
Post up some more of your Squarebody, they have a big following here.

Been a little over a year since I picked up my 1991 V2500 from California, here are some updates
painted the roof with Durabak smooth




rebuilt the 241C that had a bat range selector gear and bad input gear



Sourced a set of 1 Ton axles, did full rebuilds ans well as gear changes, now running 4.56







and most recently traded my 3/4 axles for a complete 5.3 LS that I'm going to build this summer, it will have a decent cam, headers and a Magna charger.

Not my 'burb, but the daily driver of a family friend who I was helping install a crate motor in an old Fiat yesterday

It's not much of an overlander. But he has some other rigs for that....

That's so sexy it almost qualifies as porn. :D

I should've snapped some inside pics. Such a beautiful dash, and the wood interior is plain sex.

All his cars are drivers not showers. But most of them are in absolutely beautiful condition.

zombiecustoms, nice work on the Squarebody. Is that a 32 sedan in the garage?

Jmeb, that is a beauty of an early Suburban, about the same age as me and in much better shape!
