Need a favor from someone with a 92-99 Chevy/GMC Suburban.

I have a mad max-ish idea in my head and I'm looking for someone to measure their suburban for me.

Normally I would just go to the junk yard and do it myself but I wont have a chance to get down there for over a week. And I hate (most) used car salesmen. A lot.

I'm looking for the width in between the tail lights on the back and the length from the rear door to the back of the bumper.

Thanks in advance guys.

PM me after 1 tomorrow. By then i would have forgotten what it was someone asked me to do. You want back door measurement with it closed / outside of door to end of bumper, or open?.

Ya ya ya!

Man.. I forgot about the plate armor and gun ports in my design. I need to step my game up.

PM'ed you Jim.

I should be near a 92 suburban and a 99 Tahoe this weekend

You Have Mail

Thanks Kazoo!
Im 3" too short on the back of the camper for the tail lights height wise but all the other dims are workable. Ill have about 12-14" of rear over hang depending on how much C pillar I remove.
Spot weld and seam seal a bulk head on the rear, cut a pass through in the front of the camper and route power and AC back. And fab some mounts off the frame to bolt the camper to.
2500 with 454 would be ideal..

Replace the stock lights, with 68 - 72 repros. That puts the lights @ 5" OAL. OR forgot stock location, run some LED units in the bumper. You're looking to fab this project as necessary. Why not the lights. As for mounting the camper. You need at least 1/2 - 3/4" of air gap between camer & body. If you don't, you'll rot the camper flooring, and or body. Consider boxing the camper base with 1- 1.5" square tubing. Weld locator tabs on outside of tubing. This gives you a solid mounting camper to body. I might have 20' or so of stock, unless my neighbor scrapped it.

Jim, could you pull a tape from the deck in the back to the top of the roof if you get a chance today?

I only have 39" from the base to the cab over so I'm thinking I'll probably have to fabricate a base for the camper to sit on so it will clear the roof.

The more I look at it I think this camper was designed for a smaller truck. There is virtually no info on post 70's Mitchells so I'm just guessing as I go with a lot of things.

Looks like the majority of the dims will work pretty easily.
