Here's my new (to me) ride. A 2000 Suburban LT, 5.3 Vortec V-8, 3.73 RAR (considering changing to a 4.10) I don't have any interior shots yet. I'll post some when I can.
Been wanting a Suburban for a long time. With 3 kids the extended cab pick ups weren't going to work for us. 3 kids crammed that tightly for an extended trip? No thanks, brother!
My DW and I came across this little number on New Year's Eve, and now it's sitting in my garage! Lots better then the Windstar that it replaced. Plus, now I don't have to borrow my Dad's Explorer to haul my pop up when I want to go camping! Also, we're looking at getting a larger HTT in the very near future (maybe next weekend!) and this should handle the task just fine.
But the best thing of all is it's completely paid for!
If your thinking about doing a gear swap look for a nice low mile used rear axle out of a Yukon Denali or Caddy Escalade. These are direct bolt in axles and 9.5" rear ends (much more up to the task of towing). They can be had for under a grand, probably have 1500 in it if you swap to 4.10s and change brake pads. The 9.5 is a beast of this rear axle.
