Default Puttin a burb body on a dodge 4x4 frame

Ok y'all not real sure where to post this on. I've been thinking about building my wife a suburban with a p-pumped 12 valve. The only problem I'm really facing is that I can't find a 4x4 burb that the seller doesn't want a arm and leg for but I do know where to get a good 4x4 chassis and motor at, and a decent body for it. I know the burb has a 135.5 inch wheelbase. Any input will be appreciated. O yeah I do have a 2-3 in body lift ready for the undertaking

What year? 135.5" seems long. My '84 Burb was 129" according to the sticker. Regardless, a few inches 'disappears' with a lift, and rear axle placement.

Found a body swap thread here:

What year Suburban are you looking for? Yes, the 91 and older ones are getting harder to come by but there are a lot of 92's and newer out there.

Here's mine.
