Squarebody Restoration!!! - Building an absolutely bulletproof Squarebody Suburban on tons! 

9:15 “Now that’s clutch” 🤣

It’s a complete mystery to me why you don’t have over 100,000 subscribers. I remember when you first started this channel. You were just starting to get into the DIY aspect of off-road , Coincidentally I was too. Wow! So much has changed since then. Love the videos keep it up bud.

+1 with the leaf springs.

Love these break down just talking to the viewer type videos

Badass my cousin rebuilt and put in a 6bt in a 83 bullnose 1ton dump truck it was nice love the burban

Thanks you answered a few of my questions. Cummins 5.9 12 valve p7100. The transmission was the last remaining question.

Perfect bug out vehicle! Love the mindset!

Great job James from Wabash, IN!

Work 🐎, Family Wagon! 🇺🇸💪

I can`t wait to see the burb up and running.

I can’t wait to see it in use! Very cool build!

If you are in the middle, beginning or end of a build. What were your driving objectives?

Sounds like a solid plan.... Makes me want to change the plan for my crew cab square body build. I am just throwing an LS in it now, but may consider the Cummins down the road. If Big Bear wanted to give me an engine I would probably put it in my truck...

Your on to it

we are very like minded with our reasons for our cummins swapped burbs! there's no way i could articulate my reasons on video but you have done well. i just rebuilt my NV4500 myself, reinstalled it and it is a joy to have it back on the road again. As you know, Offroad Design has tons of stuff for projects like this. Many will say you don't need to go to the custom springs but i am so glad i did. i also used a Red Head 2wd steering gear with the ORD crossover steering for my kingpin dana 60. they also offer a swaybar with JKS disconnects which made a huge difference on my suburban. this in itself is very contrary to most people's experience, they usually just take them off. they also don't have a cummins burb on custom springs... i am also planning on adding a swaybar to the rear. hey, its a work truck, commuter and focus of every cummins swapfan boy in the area :) i want it to have manners on the road and make it safe for my family and those sharing the roads with us. always looking forward to the next video!!!

yeah buddy!

Love the Build theory!!

This is exactly what I wanna do to my 01 suburban

I’m doing the same swap on my 84 burb but going a different route keeping a building up my factory 700R4 with DCS’s adapter plate and flex plate

Loved it

Awesome video buddy!! I have been wanting to do the same thing because I have an 2007 classic Duramax now & it’s just about worn out and when it’s done I’m pretty sure I won’t be able to afford a new truck so I’ve been trying to figure it out what I wanted to do for my next vehicle!! But I’m pretty sure that it will be a 1Ton 4x4 with a Diesel motor in it!! Just not sure what one yet but I would definitely like the LBZ Duramax motor just not sure if I want to hassle with trying to make one fit though??? I no others have done it but you just don’t see very many!! Awesome video buddy!!!

Love the talking videos!

Compared to the blazer, I think that one will be great for longer distances like crossing america and more family friendly and comfortable by far 😜

What about smog or emissions? Its a cool build. I wanted to go 4bt in my stepside but settled for a 6.2 due to cost. Loved the p pumped 12valve in my dodge dually. Great engine choice.

YEAH!!!🤓🤗PUMPED.....

I love the truck. I have a 97 dodge 2500 12v I put in a nv4500 last year love it. Its rock solid did you consider the nv5600

James I’m not sure if I missed it but what transfer case will you be running? Magnum box as well?

I been searching your video's looking for what size lift you got on the burb?

cool build like the wheels. what size lift springs are you going with?

I just bought a 91 square body suburban 4x4, your build is cool just wondering how you're going to work out the emissions i think I seen somewhere you're in CA

OK, spill the fender dent story already. Forklift? Glad you finally dumped the charcoal canister, it was driving me nuts!

Please educate me , not sure if I’ve missed in other videos , but smog ? None , because engine is pre smog? Chassis of the burb doesn’t matter ? Just curious is all. Love the build . Got me thinking of doing same project in future instead of buying a new $80k diesel . Thanks !

I got a question so my brake lights on my suburban stopped working but everything else still works

You might have actually convinced me to do a 5.9 swap in my m1009

Esa camioneta le sobran testículos de verdad una cumins 12 balbulas la locura eso es pensar en serio y a viajar a conocer el mundo entero y más 4de estándar woooooooooooaaaauuuuuuu

torqmotorsports check these guys out for big brakes for your Dana 60

i would definitely make sure the ord springs are the same length. my buddies were off by 1/2” on his front springs. the one spring was hitting the frame on the shackle end. ord got him one new front and now the center pin is way off. i wouldn’t recommend those springs to anyone. deaver said springs should be dead nuts identical. pretty sad after you spend 2k for custom ord springs.

You can float gears......

Ul be sorry if u lock a tow rigs rear end must go selectable

8.1s are not ls based....

Too much talking
