[Update 8/23] 04 Suburban 1500 - SOLD

[Galandorian]

got the CAI swapped between vehicles, but not much else done

spent most of the day pulling wire and door panels from the Tahoe



After spending about an hour on the phone calling places, I finally found a guy who operates a tint business on the side who agreed to do all my windows 5% and the shield 35%, for $380 out the door on Monday afternoon

Are the interiors the same colors?

Nah Tahoe is Tan / leather, Suburban is Grey / Cloth.

I would've kept the door panels, but the 2nd row doors are different, because the Suburban windows can roll all the way down, while Tahoes only roll halfway

Got the running boards, mud flaps, door bumpers, and badges removed




boards removed



next to my dad's suburban

he has Z71 springs in the rear, which I think I'll be throwing on mine soon




and how it sits now

working on figuring out which muffler to go with, then I'll have tint on Monday, my new headlights and tail lights monday, etc.

Looking good already.

Working fast , I liked the Tahoe before but you seem more motivated on the burb already lol. And good thing you kept you're old hood .
What's the exact color ? Bermuda ? Indigo?

Hmmm, just found a 2005 Z71 with 62k for $9k in Bermuda Blue locally. Been thinking I'd have one lowered and one lifted

Yeah I'm super happy with how it's coming along!

Honestly I was never a fan of the Tahoe. I've always wanted a Suburban but I knew parking on campus would be a nightmare, so I settled with the short body.

Now that I'm graduated and won't have to be near cities (hopefully) I'm super stoked to have the extra room!

Got a couple weeks of backpacking and camping planned that this vehicle is going to be perfect for.



The color officially appears to be "Dark Ming Blue"

Seems a bit pricey in my area, but I'm always an advocate for more Chevies out there

Got a Z71 Roof Rack for the Suburban already stowed away.

We pulled it from the Junkyard for $30 back in February, originally for my dad's Suburban, but he's gonna let me have it!



It was on a Yukon XL... which don't come with Z71 racks, so it was put there by the owner lol. Kinda cool
