  • I had the opportunity to build out this truck for a friend of mine. He gave me the go ahead to "go big" and that's exactly what I did.
    Triple Bypass from King, Magnussen supercharger and much more.
    This thing drives as good as it looks and now has the power and suspension to deliver.
    Stoked to be tackling some unique projects with the additional shop space!

    Many would love to see some 2011 to 2013 Suburban builds. They’re the ones that came with the all aluminum 4th Generation LS motors, 5 link rear suspensions and struts up front.

    The Marlin Crawler IFS kit was just coming out when you built this, it moves the WB forward 2" and has a bomb proof steering rack / RCV axles warrantied to 40". Only weak link now is the yoda hub bearings over 35"

    My girls 2010 Dodge Nitro uses that same "large balls" joint on one side of her front drive shaft.. They call it a "prop shaft" or Propeller shaft; when it uses those type joints.. Many different vehicles use it; it's almost as common as the standard U-joint

    Nice build. I'd love to see how you wired up your cyclones under the Burb. Saw the pics on your IG. Thinking of doing the same on my truck build

    What state r u in now? I'd love to get ur advice on a 3/4 or 1 Ton truck to pull my family's camper to do volunteer work and my suburban. Hoping to get them started soon so hopefully we can pull out for disaster relief work and stuff like that. We want to make sure we build them up a little to be safer with our children. I like the Toyota stuff as well man keek it flowing.

    Where do you get the labeled wire terminals or is it the heat shrink?

    • @MerricksGarage
      @MerricksGarage  2 роки тому +1

      I use a label maker and then then clear heat shrink. Works perfectly

    Great Tacoma 👍
    Are you going to take us for a ride? Just on the streets? Did you do a before? so we can feel or see and tell the differences with power, suspension and switching?
    Thanks for sharing 👍.

    That knuckle is forged.. and Unfortunately, you may have actually made it hard and brittle now by welding it. lol.. Metallurgy is a tricky thing.

    i just wish pickup trucks were still pickup trucks you know 2 doors not cars with a bed on back. if i wanted 4 doors i would buy a suv not a truck. i just love my 1994 ram 2500 5 speed standard cab. you don't have to haul the whole neighborhood with you

    What's wrong with American made trucks. why are so many people in this country buying trucks and cars from China. Don't you like supporting your own country ,?

    • @MerricksGarage
      @MerricksGarage  2 роки тому +3

      Made in Texas. Do your research brother.

    • @sethheijermans3605
      @sethheijermans3605 2 роки тому

      Pretty sure many current "American trucks" (ie Chevy, Ram, Ford) are not made in America either. Toyota is the largest automaker in America.

    • @sethheijermans3605
      @sethheijermans3605 2 роки тому

      Oh, and Merrick's garage is about 99% old American made truck content, so...
