We bought this ’76 K20 Suburban in Idaho for a 2,100 mile cross-country roadtrip | PART 1 

They can have their electric vehicles and I'll stick with my 87 GMC longbed. Keep up the good work guys, keep these trucks alive

Nice. Live in Nampa, myself. Had a 73' Sub with a 454 way back when. Used it transporting my band and a trlr all over, and into Canada in the 80's.

long live squarebody chevy what an iconic design

That's a BEAUTY! Big Suburban fan here! My first one was a 1982 with a 6.2 Diesel. Now I'm on Suburban #5, a 2003 3/4 ton.

That’s awesome! My dad and I just flew to Boise a few months ago to pickup up a 75 C20 crew cab and road tripped it over 1,000 miles home. The original 454 ran like a dream!

The new " Bungee Burb" SWEEEEET.

Can't Wait To See The Actual Drive Back!!! SUPER EXCITING!!!

So cool, what a great guy to do all that work on the Burb, top bloke 👍so much fun and looking forward to the next installment.

Nice find can’t wait for part 2 of this trip

What a amazing machine, love suburbans 👍🤙

Can’t wait to see the second episode of this epic journey!!!!!! You guys are rockin it in the frozen zone!!!!!

Great video as always! So cool

The new guy is a keeper. Has c10 and a wire haired pointing griffon.

Man, such a cool Suburban! Takes me back to when these trucks were new. I started going with my Dad to the small town Chevy dealer where my Cousin was a tech. I remember looking through the windows into the shop & thinking how great it all was. Because my Cousin worked there, I got to collect the new vehicle brochures & watch the sales training films...yes, I've had the illness ever since😄

Great video, looks like you guys were having a blast.

Great video buddy! Bet that was a fun trip. Makes me miss my '78 Burb.

That thing's so nice, even with the faded paint & the 'garden hose' rust tracks, I wouldn't change a thing!

I love the period correct wheels. Such a nice look! 👌🏼

That suburban is awesome, hands down the square bodies are my favorite. Loving the content keep up the good work.

Wish I had it awesome burb! United By Trucks is a awesome channel glad you guys love the old iron!&

Man I like that Burb. Nothing like steel wheels with the dog dish hub caps.

I have an 82 k30 crew cab long bed single rear wheel....ive taken it across states, on hour drives. And I take it 3 of 4 times a week into the day... never had an issue with it. She'll get you there...

Nice 76 K20! And just down the road from my mother in laws house (in Eagle ID) Dang!! We have a decent 1979 GMC Sierra Classic Suburban 2500 4x4. Stored indoors since new. We''ve put it away for the winter here near Boulder CO. I'll be posting video on it soon...and I'll keep my eye on that heater core of ours - Safe travels!!

I had a 77 3/4 pickup with a 400 in it with a turbo 350 for a trans. It was a dog. It had a hard time getting out of its own way. I talked to a guy who had the same motor and he put a new set of aluminum heads, new cam and Eldlebrock airgap intake. It made a huge defference in power and quickness.

Took my 74 GMC Suburban on Power Tour, was 2800 miles and no A/C.. it was hot! Made it though! Great video.

Looking forward to content on this beast. 💪🏻

Nice Big Bird

My family had a 2wd 84' suburban growing up. Started life as a 6.2L diesel w a turbo 400. We put 200k on it before it started knocking(it had 80k when we got it and had sat for a long time). I helped my dad swap in a 305 from a 78' chevelle that bolted right in, exhaust and all. Put another 120k on it before finally selling it. Dad didn't want to deal with the rotted rear inner fenders. Never forget how the rear A/C unit would "spit" on us haha. Thanks for another great video and happy new year!

I love square bodies, my first truck was a GMC C15 Sierra Classic long bed, from 1977 !!! Greetings from Chile.

Awesome suburban buddy plus it’s the good old square body burban!! One of the most popular older vehicles out there!! I bet that you would definitely love my 1981 Chevy 1Ton 4x4 SRW has under 100k original miles on it because it was an old fire truck that hardly ever got drove!! You can even see the part number stickers on every thing under the truck!! Probably one of the cleanest trucks that I have ever seen in this year of truck that has not been redone or touched mechanical wise!! I absolutely love it!! I also have a 1984 Chevy 1Ton 4x4 DRW that was baught brand new by Carrol witch was a dirt Business and they used it for working on the equipment when needed work done on!! They had a book about 2”1/2” to 3” thick with every little thing that was ever done to the truck also witch I thought was very awesome!! This truck is pretty clean also but not as much as the good old fire truck that I had baught!! I have a few others also!!

Looking good 👍👍🇨🇱

Awesome Burb! Looks like the rubber isolator pads are missing from the top radiator mounting clamps, probably the bottom too. Big fan of the period correct look on these trucks too!

I want a Kool Rest soooooo bad ....but like you said they are crazy expensive...hell I've never heard of one till I watched UBT . Excited for this build

What u guys are doing is True Americana...save the tuff stuff...they can keep the EV's We r Revolting ..Square Body Nation💪

Derek representing Idaho well! Stand up guy! We don’t want anyone moving here but we’ll lend a hand every time. Excellent episode. ✌️

Radiator support bushings. Super nice Suburban.

Friend took a wreaked 85 blazer fiberglass top and 1" that connects it, welded all together, onto his suburban.

Robbie what’s up? Man you are one lucky man to get that burb. It’s good to have a mechanic with you on the road also. Good job

Both trucks are sweet

LOVE.

My father in law has a 8 lug 74 4x4 suburban. I’ll be restoring soon. Going to keep it looking original.

Love the Suburban! I’ve found a’91 V1500 that I’m hoping to add to my fleet. Am anxious to see how this road trip goes. That ‘70 GMC is a great find too.

If its a 400 the harmonic balancer will be larger than a 350! The color combination is great. I hope you repaint it the same.

Love it

Man I like that tundra it’s beautiful great first impressions (this is my first video from you guys)

With that heater core, I used a heat gun on the pastic instead of beating the chinesium heater core. Worked alot better.

It's a keeper

Mike standing at the entrance to the garage drinking his beer looking like a proud dad, lol

I can only imagine long tripping my ‘85 C10. That would be awesome but also a pain without A/C 😅. Awesome video UBT

Love the 67-68 Chevrolet truck mask

Nice👍

Nice burb, that's next on my list only a 73-80 but a k10.

My wife said she is not mean she is just around a bunch of minitruckers all the time God bless her your channel is badass I might try going to mini nats this year keep up the awesome videos

I had the exact same issue when I replaced the heatercore on my 77 🤣

Cool burb and awesome content you gonna have to get a diecast to match all ya rides to set on your dash

When you going to make another video of the k30 and the burb awesome trucks man 👍

The rad supports missing the rubber bushings bud lol

If yall are just now headed back home stop through Kansas city and hit up lmc on the way youll be able to pick up oe radiator support rubbers for that o girl. And that 2 knob radio though i love seein those still in there lol

She’s the twin of mine except mine is a half ton. Cool!

Jealous of this trip! Really been wanting to go back home to Oregon / Idaho and find a good old truck to road trip back to Kentucky for a while now!

UBT all day!

No doubt in my mind it would make a 2100 mile road trip. Hell these old chevy c-10/ suburbans if in good shape are very reliable hell a 350 will run as long as a Honda if maintained well maybe even longer! So yeah that suburban in great condition can definitely make it 2000 miles without breaking down 😂

She's rough around the edges, but that means you won't worry about door dings or kids resting bikes on it. It'll fit in the UBT collection nicely

👈 Robbie or anyone intrested this rust free Texas truck is for sale. 82 Gmc Sierra Classic DBW 5.3 4l60e swapped, bucket seats with console, drop spindles and shackles. 10k obo located in Berea Kentucky.

So I Scored A Grandpa Clean 87' Burban 4x4 "Hashbrown" At Our Local Junkyard For $700, Put A New Fuel Pump, Fuel Tank, A Tune Up & Fresh Fluids. Been Enjoying It For About A Year Now. My Kids ❤ It & Everything Works But The Rear A/C!!

will have a large hormonic balancer if 400 sb. like almost the size of a 454 balancer

"cause Taiwan bro". I just put new gas tanks in my k30 and had an issue getting the straps around them cause of the way they were made and I kept asking why its like that and my buddy said the exact same thing!

Now everybody's heard... about the Burb

1. Mike hates planes and he was in comfort plus . Put him in main next time lol 🤣 2. Burban is nice i like it alot !!! 3. First breakdown is cause there is ford (motorcraft) parts on a chevy . Lol im kidding ! 4. I love the video !!

Nice, I'm working on an 87 1/2 ton 4x4. Traded my 76 2wd for it. Not in as good as shape as that rig. Sweet find. I couldn't make out where he got the rims from. Half deaf due to growing up around heavy equipment. ha ha

احلى شيء نزلت في الجمسات هذي قويه وحق خط ما هي معقده زي الجديده

I've only been to Boise once and it was a year ago to pick up a helicopter that I trailered to Iowa.

We got more snow than they did. Lol. I am 150 east of Boise.

Check the harmonic balancer

I think he is a PT . Derrick looks familiar

My dipstick on my 400 is on driver side . Run them numbers. I'm curious. That burb is amazing man good score. Sounds like 400 but tough to tell by ear lol

I have always wanted to know can you take doors off a suburban or a blazer an put them on a c10 it looks like it's all the same an back then they were very cost effective please let me know obviously the same years

Love the vid. I was wondering what size tires does that truck have. I am starting on an 87 burb that has 31's now but i wanting something a little taller

Look like you are missing the rubber peices

Beer in Boise - that's why you really went out there

I rode in the back of my dads 2500 75 for years he ended up selling it because it had a blown head gasket I was pretty pissed off at him I wanted it for my first truck had the 400/400 maroon and white two tone Saw a pretty sweet one down at Dino’s get down this year 2020

Is that the Roadkill suburban? If not it’s got a twin!

That suburban looks like it's name should be jimbo

What ever happened with the k20 burb? It would be cool to see more videos on it. Very rare rig.

If the flexplate has a countweight it is a 400

Where did you find the cool rest? I’ve been looking for one for my square

why not a pressure test on the colling system ?

Sweet rig, where did you get those steelies and hubcaps?

When will we see the second installment?

Going for the spoiler... How was the drive?

Fuck yeah see the USA in your 40 year old Chevrolet !! Plus love my Boise '

I bought something that is absolutely not a Chevy.... I already traded my square body 86 Chevy k20 custom deluxe long bed 4x4 farm truck for a early 94 Chevy Silverado extended cab short bed Z71 I told you guys I traded for..I have since found a 2000 dodge ram 1500 quad cab long bed Laramie slt 4x4 with a 5.9 litre 360 magnum v8 I actually like more than my 94 Chevy Silverado, and I usually say I don't want anything newer than 94,and I ended up getting a 2000 dodge..

Happy New Year to UBT Whitlock Garage. And a fyi, I just uploaded my first video of my Jimmy. Cold Start ‘84 Jimmy . I’d appreciate a thumbs up🤓

I'd do just about anything for that butterscotch beauty, boom bam biscuits. Then I'd name her butter scotch and drive it home to Texas from your house after you drove it home from boise. Que the music..... #butterscotch

I’m interested in the running boards. Please reply

What is the tire/ wheel size combo?

😂😂 Robbie don’t film in the bathroom it’s weird.

Did you get together with the FB group IdahoC10?

What size are the tires?

You came to Boise?
