I started with a 1975 K20 Suburban with cancer. added 6" of lift and some CO-OP Grip Spurs. Sunk it in a pond for two days, Spontaneous upgrade, new engine. Cut the top off. Took the body off. Put a crew cab on it. Cut the frame on it. Moved the tank. Built a bed for it.

Added a rear winch and lights. Built some tube doors for it. Put CUCV axles in it and a front Spartan locker. Put some LED's on it that I won from SPYDER OFFROAD!! Put crossover steering on it.

I almost forgot, somewhere in there I swapped out the TH350/203 combo to an SM465/NP205 combo. I saved them though for a future doubler kit.

Definitely a LOT of work in this. I've always loved it and I've talked to James about what all he did to it but pictures are worth 1,000 words they say.

I went ahead and finished it with the buzz box. It broke the tacks and I got mad and drug out the big welder, but thanks anyway. I just have to do a final tightening on everything.

I've been meaning to ask you what kind of lights the rear reverse lights are. I've seen them on and always liked them. Nice clean fit and bright.

what did you decide about the full doors?

I kept it low enough that I can trim the bottom off the doors and they will still work.
