1998 Chevrolet - Suburban

Description del vehiculo

1998 Chevrolet 2500 Suburban, finished in Emerald Green Metallic with a gray interior. This Suburban's factory-fitted 7.4-liter V8 has been replaced by a 5.9-liter Cummins turbodiesel straight-6 engine reportedly sourced from a 1995 Dodge Ram 2500 with about 197,000 miles. The list of modifications reported by the seller also includes a straight-piped 3-inch turbo-back exhaust system, a "4L80E" 4-speed automatic transmission from a diesel-powered Suburban, 16-inch American Racing wheels, a 3-inch suspension lift, clear front turn signal lenses, and auxiliary gauges on the driver-side A-pillar. More details about the modifications performed on this Suburban are provided below.Factory equipment includes running boards, roof rails, a trailer hitch, heated and power-adjustable front seats, folding third-row seats, plus front and rear air conditioning systems.Introduced for 1992, the eighth-generation, GMT400-based Suburban was built until 1999 for the American market. It was welcomed as a significant update over its predecessor, which had been in production since the 1973 model year, and it offered users a more comfortable cabin and a range of powerful V8 engines. The 2500 was a 3/4-ton model developed for towing; it was a lot less common than the 1500, which was ubiquitous as a family hauler during the 1990s and the 2000s.Power comes from a 5.9-liter Cummins turbodiesel straight-6, rated at 160 horsepower and 400 lb-ft of torque when left stock. The seller estimates that the modifications increase those figures to about 300 and 550, respectively, but a dyno sheet is not available. Called "6BT" internally, the engine spins the rear wheels via a 4-speed automatic transmission and a 2-speed transfer case.
