Well, I've had a ton of fun with this truck over the last few years, but I just got a truck through work and I won't be needed my trusty steed any longer. I don't want to let it set, so I decided the best thing for it would be to sell it. I bought this truck from Diesel Dave at Pete Moore down in Pensacola after several years of searching for the right truck. I flew down on a Friday afternoon and drove it the 1,200 miles home straight through. It's basically been a family/race car hauler. It's originally a Georgia truck and was garage kept while under my care. Here are the details.
'98 GMC Suburban SLT K1500 18x,000 miles
Victory Red over silver with light gray leather
3rd Seat
All available options
2005 GMC 8 lug alloys with oversize Michelin rubber
Paint is pretty much perfect, but there are a handful of dings that were there when I bought it (appear to be hail damage) - likely an easy fix for a paintless dent guy
Needs NOTHING!
Here's what I've done:
- New AC compressor, receiver/drier and hoses
- New PMD (I also have a spare with all gaskets that'll go with the truck)
- New alternator
- New steering linkage
- New steering hoses
- Recent brakes
- New vacuum pump
- New braided oil cooler lines (bullet proof!)
- New quickheat glow plugs
- New Bilstein shocks
- Custom lighted running boards
No leaks whatsoever. Turbo has no endplay - spools up beautifully. The interior is in exceptional condition. The only real wear on the seats is the typical wear on the driver's seat. All others are pristine. Carpets are in great shape. The truck really doesn't need anything. Just get in and drive. It's been raining cats and dogs for days so I don't have pics yet, but I'll post them later this week. I figured I'd offer the truck here before it goes on ebay. Many heartfelt thanks to all of the folks that have helped me keep this truck truckin' over the last few years!
