Chevrolet R1500 Suburban Parts & Accessories

The Chevrolet R1500 Suburban is the half-ton two-wheel-drive version of the full-size classic Suburban, built on the legendary square-body truck chassis through the late 1980s. These SUVs combine old-school utility with exceptional parts availability for both restoration and performance builds.

Popular Upgrades

Exhaust headers and cat-back systems designed for the 305 or 350 small-block V8 are the most common performance upgrades. Suspension leveling kits and lift kits give the R1500 Suburban a more commanding stance. Air intake systems and carburetor upgrades complete the engine breathing package for builders looking to maximize performance from these classic V8s.

What exhaust fits the R1500 Suburban?

Long-tube and shorty headers designed for the 1988 C/K 1500 truck with a small-block V8 are correct for the R1500 Suburban. A 2.5-inch cat-back system completes the exhaust upgrade and delivers a strong improvement in both power and sound.

What suspension parts fit the R1500 Suburban?

The R1500 Suburban uses the same front and rear suspension architecture as other half-ton C/K trucks from the same era. Coil spring replacements up front and leaf spring add-a-leaf kits in the rear are the standard lift and leveling approach.
