Spare, I currently own a '95 K1500 diesel and a '94 C1500 gasser. Like Ferm said, the front end is way more heavy duty on the diesel than my C1500. My Mom drives a '94 K2500 gasser with the 6 lug wheels. It definantly has stiffer rear springs than both of mine.

That guy Ferm sure knows some stuff.

OK, change of plans now. After rethinking everything and heading off my wife's plan to buy a used Saturn(it is a nice car, just not what I want to be owing money on). I'm now in the market for a 03-06 Suburban. Needs to be a 5.3 2wd, under 80K if possible. Leather, third row, tow package. Any color but black or white(my favorite, but my wife hates it)I know its not going to tow with a 2500, but its higher than my 99. I think we're going to keep the 99 as my car, sell my Cherokee to my sister, and get my wife a newer burb. I need an older couples car, one that's been driven rarely, but taken care of. Any one run across one, let me know. I'm looking on craigs list in NC and SC. I hate to venture much further out with out some ones eyes on it before I drive to look at it. Thanks

more mileage than you wanted, but comes with a fsu tag

2001 Burb here its a special ordered stripper 2500 with the 6.0 gasser closing in on 300K now ,4 x4 with 3.73 posi rear. It does better than my 06 HD 2500 ext cab 6.0 p/u 4:10's on mpg but I really don't bother keep track anymore. The Nanny hauls my kids around in it and she loves it. I am a big fan of the 6.0 and 8.1's just couldn't have a 5.3 at this point. I wish I could pony up for another one soon but in this economy we'll just keep on rollin with it. Paid 32k 10 years ago and it was well worth it, one tranny rebuild original engine burning mobil on since day one, couple of minor maint items and that been it. Gas guage doesn't work and the a/c compressor is on the way out but who cares. The old truck still looks good still runs good so we'll just keep on rollin. The old girl still will pull like a mule and I would take her x- country tommorow!
