Sorry, but I couldn't find an inro page so I guess this will have to do.

My names James, I'm from NLR, Arkasnas. I have a 1953 GMC Suburban with a Chevy front end on it. Mustang II, full airride with a four link rear. It's an ex US Army vehicle and then used by the Colorado Forestry Service. Anyway, I really like the site. Thanks for having me.

Welcome to the Stovebolt James.

I recognized your 'burb from the HAMB. Looks like a great truck!

How was it lowered?

Introductions here are nice, but not the big deal they are in some other places.

We do have a rule here about pictures. The accepted approach is to post a link instead of the photo itself. I'm not a moderator so please take my mentioning it as being friendly, not acting as a bouncer or enforcer of any sort.

Several HAMB members here, many of them like me using the same name here as there.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

Thats cool OldSub, thanks for the heads up. I changed names because my name on the HAMB is out of date now...(1LowLeSabre)......

Anyway, I'll keep that in mind about the pics, I assume it's a bandwidth thing.

Anyway, it's bagged front and rear with a Mustang II front that has the cross member raised and the rear has a four link set up with a seven inch notch in the frame. It rides and handles great. I'm really happy with this set up.

i am glad to see you found a burb, the third member must go through the the rear floor. i was going to do that to my burb but i already have two lifted rides that lay hard so i figured a dropped axle and de-arc rear will do. it looks good get some metal prep and sealer before it starts rusting aka the cut master
