1998 GMC Suburban

GMC Suburban (1998)
for sale

Price: US $5,300.00

Description:

This Suburban came from Arkansas so it is missing the usual rust you see on these trucks. The worst rust was the surface rust on the frame rails; I carefully cleaned them, painted them with POR-15, and sprayed the entire bottom of the truck with Waxoyl to preserve it. There is absolutely no rust perforation on this vehicle.
This truck has been my family vacation vehicle and as such I maintain it to a high standard as I do not want to have any troubles while I am traveling. In August we took it on a 3, 000 mile road trip to North Carolina and the truck performed flawlessly including one day where we drove 1, 100 miles in 18 hours. My best tank was 20mpg.
As I said I maintain this truck to a high standard, here is some of the service since this summer:
141, 928 - Changed oil and filter (Mobil 1 5w-30); replaced 4x4 switch.
141, 997 - Replaced front and rear diff fluid, greased front end, replace rear brake cylinders, flushed brake fluid, replaced transfer case fluid, replaced transmission fluid and filter.
142, 073 - New shocks front and rear (Gabriel Ultra)
142, 846 - Replaced o2 sensors (2x upstream and 2x downstream), replaced spark plugs and wires, new fuel filter.
143, 317 - New tires (Yokohama Geolander) and 4 wheel alignment.
144, 600 - Changed oil and filter (Mobil 1 5w-30)
147, 137 - Replaced upper air distribution box, blower switch, and transmission selector cable
147, 332 - Replaced thermostat, radiator hoses, fan clutch, idler pulley, and belt tensioner.
148, 357 - Changed oil and filter (Mobil 1 5w-30)
148, 630 - Replaced front HVAC blower motor
149, 459 - New fuel pump (AC Delco) and fuel filter
149, 695 - New heater valve, heater hoses, and tees (replaced plastic tees with brass)
150, 147 - Replaced rear shocks with AC Delco air shocks (eliminated rear end sag)
This truck has the AutoTrak 4x4 system where you can select 2wd Hi, 4wd Hi, 4wd Lo, or Auto 4wd. The system works perfectly and has no issues.
The stock stereo is in place and works. The stereo has a CD player and I added a bluetooth-in so I could listen to music on my phone. There are custom cut Hexomat floor liners for the first row seats, 2nd row seats, 3rd row seats, and the cargo area.
This Suburban is in very good condition. My neighbor is a mechanic at the Chevy dealer and he says it has been a long time since he's seen one of this vintage that is this clean. The truck starts, stops, runs and drives very well. The front and rear AC and heat both work perfectly.
To my knowledge, the only thing that does not work is the driver's seat heater; the passenger seat heater works fine. The driver's seat is worn on the bottom. You can get a replacement cover from eBay for about $200 but I prefer leather that has a nice patina.
The truck comes with a large quantity of spare parts, including a spare axle with a recently rebuilt G80 locking differential. I just installed a set of brand new snow tires mounted on a set of Chevy rims; I will include the Yokohama highway tires with less than 10k miles in the sale.
There is a 12, 000 pound winch (never used) mounted to a Warn Trans4mer mount.
I have a clean/clear title in my possession.
This SUV is sold as-is and where-is. Please ask any questions before bidding.
As the vehicle is listed for sale locally I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.
The price that you see here is the lowest I am willing to sell the truck for. Please do not send me a message and ask if I will accept a lower price. I don't buy cheap cars and I don't sell cheap cars. I am sure you can find one for sale that has a lower price; I seriously doubt you will find one that is as nice as this for a better price.The reason that I am selling this is that I am looking to buy a new truck. If I sell this then I get a new truck; if I don't sell this then I get to drive it some more. :) Either way it's a win-win for me; I only mention this to show why I am not interested in a $2500 offer.
