83 Suburban Dually Build

yep. your gunna need a notch. I don't know about the burb frames, but I took a 5/7 drop off my square body 1/2 ton pick-up, and put it on my 2wd K-5 blazer and it sits quite a bit lower. I guess something to do with the frame being shaped differently.

-A.

Well my only rule for this build is: I will NOT cut the floor! Lol

Do yall think I could get away with one like this?

Or am I going to have to go full out c-notch?

The problem is going to be the top of the differential hitting the floor maybe even before the axle tubes come into contact with the frame.

Well if thats true the one solution I can think of is to bring the floor up the height of the 3rd row seat brackets, and just mount the seat straight to the floor so that nothing is really compromised on the interior. But I will not do anything for looks that will compromise the room or functionality of the interior, or the trucks ability to tow. Ill have to go measure but I think the rear seat sets about 4-6in off the floor.
Suggestions?

Measure from the top of the diff to the floor and measure from the top of the axle tube to the frame. Take which ever of those two measurements is the shortest and basicaly cut that in half. That will give you a pretty good idea how much you can lower it without doing any reconstruction.

nice looking trucks man...

If you plan on towing with it, you may need some helper bags out back. I'm thinking of you do get away with the static drop it'll be pretty close as is. Then if you drop a decent sized load on it you'll prolly hit bottom.

Someone broke into my burb!! They busted the dash, steering column, and messed up the rear drivers side door a little trying to pry it open. Does anyone have a steering column they would sell me for cheap? Or know where one is? Im just discusted right now... Oh yea and the stereo is GONE!

Heres some pics of the damage....
