88 Chevy 1ton 4x4 dually

DANG that’s a nice ride!

Might be smarter to leave original but I would have a 6 speed in that thing so fast your head would spin, preferably manual.

Mother chicken that's one ton of memories






You ain't kidding and probably know from experience!

Bad arse truck
had an 89 would smoke the
tires with the 454 and pass
every thing but a gas station
miss that truck every day

Nice truck. The old 454 is a workhorse engine and will pull good with that 4:10 rear end. the only thing I see missing is the mudflaps. without them some Barney Fife is bound to pull it over and write a ticket for it. Truck should bring from 8k to 12k depending.

Oh, and 10 to 12 mpg running empty. 4 to 6 pulling 20,000 or so

I bought a 1991 Chevy 3/4 ton with a 454 in 1993. I never got 11 mpg running empty, but I liked the hp and would let those ponies run most of the time. Dad owned a muffler shop, so I put 2.5" pipe from the headers back with 18" glass packs and megaphones on it.

Never saw one get that empty mileage, loaded and empty were much closer together!

[emoji6] if the auto stays add headers for power, if going std then leave the manifolds so that ***** will sing between gears and downshifting.

If he's going off of his '95, it had OD and probably 3.73s and may have got close at 65. I guarantee you that rig won't do it with that Turbo 400, and 4.10s.


But who gives a turkey, that thing is BAD ***!

One simply does not drive a 454 looking for mpg’s.

My mom, who is 5’3”, had a ‘97 3/4 ton 4wd suburban with the big block.[emoji23] They weren’t fast in the 90’s, but that vortec inducted one would **** sure pull!

Question, I thought 1988 was the start of the newer body style in gmc/chevy. My dad has an 88 chevy 3/4 ton and is the newer body. Totally different grill and truck lines. This looks like a pre 88 version. Or did they not make the 4 door newer body until later? His 88 is the extended cab
