WTFeature Episode #2: LBZ Duramax Diesel Swapped Suburban

Have you ever come across a car that makes you say "WTF is that?!" -- well, we see all kinds of cars while covering various shows, so we decided to come up with a series dedicated to those vehicles that are one-of-a-kind, super rad, interesting, and/or downright bizarre.
Welcome to WTFeatures! Our second episode features a badass, Duramax swapped police package Suburban. Brothers Josh and Sam Bush won our Facebook sticker contest, where they scored a free photo shoot and video feature for their truck. Josh had his ex-DC Metro Police Dept. 2500 Suburban engine-swapped at a local Ohio shop, and thanks to some extra diesel torque, it does one hell of a burnout now. To see some detailed photos of the truck, along with more rad features, head on over on shutterfuel.com.
Have a 1-of-1, interesting, or crazy build we could feature on an episode? Message us! We are looking for more WTFeature cars!

That is one awesome Burb! I would love to daily drive that beast

[@samfromohio6473]

It’s fun to drive

[@camtolman755]

wish chevy made the suburban a cateye from the factory cuz it just looks right

[@jordantrujillo293]

It’s the competition GM should have made against the Excursion. Everything just looks right.

[@Trident_Euclid]

My dream truck right there 😍

[@nokizzy4504]

It’s an awesome build. My buddy has a swapped burby and most people don’t notice it, unless you run into a diesel guy who also knows that there wasn’t a 2005 diesel suburban from the factory.

I don’t need one but I want one

[@omarzowila]

I will probably get a 2000-2006 GMC Yukon XL 2500 and whenever I get it, I will also get a damaged GMC Sierra 2500 HD that is a 2003-2007 so that I can take the front bumper off of it and put it on the Yukon XL and also, I am going to make sure that everything is in the factory location because I want it to pass emissions and also, I am also planning on getting a GMC Sierra HD hood to go along with it too

We have a DuraBurb since 2006

[@jeffanderson7256]

Thats a big flex 💪🏻

[@julianboyd5348]

Awesome rig bud, Stick a fork in it! DONE

[@jimcrick3854]

Would you know roughly the total cost with parts and labour it would cost me to have this done.

[@Shutterfuel]

We're not sure on cost, but there are a ton of forum/group discussions about it online.

[@AzenBerries]

I want to diesel swap my 96 suburban but could I just use the diesel that came in the 2500?

[@Shutterfuel]

No idea - we didn’t build the truck, we just did a feature on it. The diesel forums or FB groups are probably your best bet on that one.

[@ericsanders9365]

What size tires are on that suburban?

[@wcraft]

Anyone know how one of these would handle a 13k toy hauler with 1800lb tongue weight (using WDH)?
