1986 Gmc K1500 4x4 Suburban With Lift on 2040-cars
Fredericksburg, Texas, United States
|
I bought this suburban in 2010, after having watched it sit idle in an apartment complex parking lot for 2 years. It has that classic 80's look that is so hard to find, especially in this shape. The young fella I bought it off of had pulled it out of a hayfield, where it had sat with blown heads for awhile already. He did a lot to get it back on the road including rebuilding those heads, installing the current lift and putting 33's on it.
Since I acquired it, I've had a rebuilt motor from a '93 put in it. IMO it needs a better rebuild; lifters tap a bit still. Initially it had a lot of blow by from the rebreather and still has a leak at the harmonic balancer. We put a 4 core full brass radiator in it. It has an Edelbrock carburetor and intake manifold. K&N filter. In the past year I've also had a new transmission installed. IMO the install is a little rough. I'm by no means a mechanic, more accurately a "diagnostician". I don't have much "how to fix it" knowledge, let alone tools, space and time to do it. I had hoped to park it, strip it and rebuild it at my leisure but because of issues with another vehicle, we put it on the road as a daily driver. It gets about 10mpg as it is now. Cold starts great. The differential has a new seal, fluid and the gears looked great. Transfer case runs perfect and shifts in and out easily. The front axel has self locking hubs. Dash cluster is completely shot. The lights work but none of the gauges, I'm pretty sure the copper circuit pad is too damaged and needs to be replaced. I haven't put the dash back together but still have the dash and the plastic cluster pieces. The steering column has been rebuilt as well. The doors need to be adjusted and re shimmed. 2 of the windows are cracked but not broken due to being hit by flying rocks from a weed whacker. All of the rubber door seals need to be replaced as well. Full front bench seat. Full middle seat and it still has the seat for the 3rd row. I have a spare tire for it. The vehicle has minimal rust. There is some on the right rear quarter panel (rusted behind the chrome trim, which has been removed) and a spot on a kick plate has a hole. The rust has come about from sitting in that hayfield in the Texas rain and doesn't appear to be major except maybe the hole. IMO could be fixed easily. There is no "road rust" like you would find in cars from up north, like in the wheel wells or undercarriage. In all honesty, it's in great shape body wise. It has the rear tailgate with the electric rear window. All of the windows, locks, etc are electric. The title is free and clear and in my possession. To the best of my knowledge the odometer has rolled and an accurate mileage cannot be given. There is approximately 25k miles since the rebuilt motor was installed and approximately 10k on the transmission. The right person can take this awesome suburban with really good bones and finish what I started. I would love to keep it but I am going from the Texas hill country to the dfw metroplex and that has forced me to make a hard choice. It's impractical for me to drive it in such a large city and I have nowhere to store it. So it's time to let someone else enjoy it and I'm absolutely certain that you will enjoy it. *please read carefully the following information* - As stated above, I am relocating. I need the transaction dealt with quickly, as outlined in the listing and the vehicle picked up ASAP. Delivery MAY be possible if you are within a reasonable distance and for an additional fee. - I have done my best to represent the condition of the vehicle as best I can but IT IS USED. It is sold AS IS. Please read carefully. Please ask questions. More pictures are available if requested. |

Next-gen GMC Sierra spied with diesel power
Tue, Sep 5 2017The next generation of GM trucks is arriving soon, and we're expecting a huge leap forward over the current lineup. The Chevy Silverado and the GMC SIerra sell extremely well, but haven't done much to move the segment forward in a long time. The Ford F-150 has an all-aluminum body and turbocharged V6 power. The Ram 1500 gained a diesel and coil spring suspension. These spy shots show that diesel may be in the cards for GM. Some quick shots and copious use of flash show what is most likely a tank for diesel exhaust fluid and a diesel particulate filter, both necessary equipment for any modern diesel. It's unclear what form factor that engine will come in, though GM has a number of engines to choose from, including the 2.8-liter inline four that's found in the Colorado and Canyon, though that may be a little light duty for the Silverado and Sierra. Other rumors surrounding the trucks suggest a move to an aluminum cab while retaining a steel bed. That seems like a reasonable move for GM, even if the company was attempting to shame Ford for its move to aluminum a few years ago. Look for more news as early as the Detroit Auto Show in January.

GMC Sierra Elevation Edition is a dark take on a tough truck
Wed, Sep 23 2015GMC proved that it knew how to make a mean-looking pickup with the 2015 Sierra Elevation Edition. For the 2016 model year, the company is applying that aggressiveness to the refreshed Sierra that already looks tougher than the predecessor. The result is a seriously brawny truck that hits the market in the first quarter of 2016. Still based on the Sierra Double Cab, this latest take on the Elevation Edition starts with all of the styling tweaks for the standard 2016 truck, including a reshaped grille and headlights. From there, the pickup gets monochromatic with body-color parts for the door handles, mirror caps, grille surround, and bumpers. Black, 20-inch wheels finish the aggressive aesthetic. Drivers get an interior packed with tech, complete with a six-speaker stereo and seven-inch infotainment system that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. All the occupants can also stay connected anywhere with OnStar 4G LTE and a WiFi hotspot. Under the hood, the Elevation Edition comes standard with a 4.3-liter V6 making 285 horsepower and 305 pound-feet of torque. A 5.3-liter V8 with 355 horsepower is also optional. Regardless of the powerplant, both come with a locking rear differential and the choice of two- or four-wheel drive. Check out the video below for a closer look at last year's truck, then scroll just a little bit further for the complete press release from GMC.

The Elevation Edition – available on Sierra double cab – has a street-smart stance, thanks to body-color moldings, door handles, mirror caps and a body-color grille surround, as well as body-color bumpers. It also rolls on 20-inch black-painted aluminum wheels and is further enhanced with new Elevation Edition badging. "The Sierra Elevation Edition offers a boldly styled pickup for customers who want a truck that looks as good as it performs," said Duncan Aldred, U.S. vice president, Buick and GMC.
2022 GMC Yukon gets larger screen, standard power sliding console
Thu, Sep 30 2021The 2022 GMC Yukon is falling into line with its big SUV siblings, the Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, according to a rundown of new features on Muscle Cars & Trucks. We've already covered the availability of the 6.2-liter V8 on the AT4 trim, and it looks like GMC buyers will have an easier time of it than Chevy buyers who want the 6.2, the engine looking like a standalone option on the GMC. Inside, the Yukon welcomes the 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, replacing the previous eight-inch cluster that had an analogue tach and speedo. A little to the right, the infotainment system will come with Google Automotive built in, obviating the need to pull up Android Auto to get access to Google Maps, Google Assistant, and the Google Play Store. And just below that, the Yukon Denali makes the power sliding console a standard feature instead of a $350 option. The big V8 with 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of torque comes with a shiny pair of exhaust finishers, plus 2022 sees the addition of Redwood Metallic paint, some new wheel options, and rocker panels that can be gussied up with illuminated sill plates. The current Yukon offers Max and ProGrade trailering packages, for next year an Enhanced Trailering Technology Package adds a 13-camera trailering bundle with the option for an interior accessory camera for those with enclosed haulers. On the safety side, expect reverse automatic braking to join the list of available driver assistance features. Related Video This content is hosted by a third party.
