Yee ha! YouTube - Suburban Jump In Silver Lake

@Jamesfrom180 - It's unorthodox, but what the **** not?!? @Preacherboy - Thanks for the updated stats. That opens my window up a bit. Although, I'd rather finda a '99 3/4t w/ 35k miles on it and it was rolled. :grin: That would get me all whisles and bells of a donor vehicle.

If I hadn't plunked down the dough to have all the ball joints, etc. redone, I would go to straight axle, as well. But, since I spent the money, I might as well get the handling. Especially if I plan on using it for some low key desert racing.

Hmm...I thought the CUCV was on a 1 ton or at least 3/4 chassis. Thanks for all the input. The 1 ton donor seems like a great idea. I've even heard of someone using a dually rear and only using 1 tire on each side. @ Preacherboy - Does the '93 and newer 1 ton have IFS?

Okay, Guys. So, what about using CUCV parts. Remember, my goal is to replace parts that go out with better ones, not just replace broken with breakable. For instance, right now my 'Burban needs Power Steering Pump and AC line has a crack. Tires are in their last season. Seems to me that I...

Love it! I think that's the new plan...NOT ;)

The 'Burban already has IFS, but a pumkin in the rear. I've blown 2 rear diffs and would like to upgrade the next time I blow it up. Independent suspension for the rear would be great for handling and performance. Mostly drive (e.g. lockable transfer case). I need the 9 seats and am not really...

Thanks for the input, so far, guys. What I am thinking is to try to keep the creature comforts of the 'Burban, but get the off-road performance and funcionality of the HMMWV. So, as parts go out I'd like to change them to HMMWV parts or 1 ton~3/4 ton parts for better performance and...

I have a '96 1/2 ton Chevy Burban and thinking that I should covert parts as they go to HMMWV. Any thoughts on this?
