Bluestreak2653's 1988 Chevrolet Suburban This is my first Suburban.
It is just like the one I learned to drive in in 1987. It is a stock 5.0L V8, 700R4 automatic transmission with overdrive. It has front bucket seats and the third seat all in blue cloth.

The only thing extra might be the heater and AC in the rear. It is black and blue over rust colored.

Since I boughty it from a friend I have replaced: a leaking break wheel cylinder in the rear, a drivers side window motor, the exhaust from the cat back , and the passenger side mirror that was cracked. Bluestreak2653's 1988 Chevrolet SuburbanThe exhaust had rotted off at the Cat. so I replaced it with stock mandrel bent parts but 3inch pipes virses 2 1/4 it had. I also removed the old rear wind wing and the front flat bug deflector for miliage gains.

I recently have replaced the front rotors, calipers and break pads to fix the vehicle pulling to the right problem. No change looks like only the proporsioning unit or the break hose is left.

I replaced the rear wiring harness from the firewall back. Because it burnt up on the old exhaust and turn signals shorted every time I breaked. This allowed me to finish the trailer wiring harness with a RV7pin plug and pull a trailer with my new hitch for a friend that was moving.

Projects left: Front Heater core, headliner sagging, Rear power port taken off of a newer SUB and that pesky pulling problem.
