    Max towable load for a Suburban K1500

    Upon further investigation, I have a GU6 & G80 RPO code which indicates a 3.42 & Positraction limited slip rear .. The trailer hitch is rated at 5000 lbs, but it seems to have a class 4 receiver which should be good for 10,000 lbs and 12,000 with load levelers.. How efficient is the stock...

    Max towable load for a Suburban K1500

    With my latest thread starter " Operating costs" I might be persuaded to convert the Burban to hauling duties. However the rated max load is 5000 lbs, and I would need to haul approx. 6000 lbs to 6500 lbs. So what should I plan on modifying to meet expected tow weight of 6500 lbs ?

    Operating costs

    Well I do have a 2003 VW TDI which gets great fuel mileage. I bought the Burban to help out my son, and fell in love with the monster. Once you get comfy in that truck you do not want to drive anything else. I did need a hauler for my offroader which is a 1975 Range rover, so I will try and...

    Operating costs

    I love my Burban, but as of late, I am paying about 1.40 per liter in Montreal, or 5.60 per US gallon or 33 cents per mile in any case no matter how you crunch the numbers its alot of coin per driven mile. In my area (Montreal) the veg producers have cornered the market. They have a quasi...

    Burbanitis A momentary lapse of sanity

    I can tell you that being in a colder climate, the amount of road salt that is being thrown underneath the truck is un-believable. I have found that with a little bit of care like rustproofing and keeping the truck clean goes a long way in helping it to fight rust.

    Shudders when blipped

    The PMD was remote located , the IP is original. The Burb is a 97 with about 160k miles (250k kilometers) . Though I did not have the shudder before the PMD was changed.

    Shudders when blipped

    Now that I am not sure of. When I bought the Burb in Dec, I assumed the injectors where fine, since it was not belching out any black smoke. I was planning on getting some Heath upgrades this spring, ECU, turbo back exhaust, cross pipe, additional gauges, I guess I should include a set of...

    Shudders when blipped

    PMD was replaced 2 weeks ago, it was relocated to GM specifications which I believe it to be right hand front corner

    Shudders when blipped

    Strange thing I recently noticed with my Burb. In park when I blip quickly to 2-3 k it will shudder for a second, then a slight increase in the rev and then settle down. It all happens within a second or 2. I am thinking there is some restriction or fuel is not being burnt correctly...

    The "restification" of a 98 6.5 TD...

    I am not putting GW fabricator's skill in doubt. What I am trying to express via some examples is that a conversion is often more costly because of hidden issues then a straight replacement. Dollar for dollar , because it always comes to dollars, the P400 could be a very viable option, given...

    The "restification" of a 98 6.5 TD...

    GW, If I may offer some words. I have done a few projects in rebuilding older Landrovers. Tried once a simple conversion, nothing radical dropping a Ford 6 in a series 3. Well the issues that arose took me by surprise. First the fitament of the block with its new tranny and tcase , you...

    Well, I stepped up to the plate and look what happened...........yet another project.

    Nice! Attaboy !! Love to see those 6.5's being repurposed. Good luck with the project
