model History1952 chevy suburban carry allIn time, these versatile 2-door vehicles became known as the 'Suburban Carryall' that was subsequently shortened in 1988 to 'Suburban' as an exclusive GM trademark. 'Carryalls' became popular capable of carrying up to 8 passengers in roomy comfort on a 115-inch wheelbase, their luggage behind the seats, and towing a sizable trailer. Removable quick-fastening 2nd and 3rd seats made voluminous capacity for a delivery van. For 1952, the line continued with the rugged inline 6-cylinder engine producing 90 horsepower and either a 3-speed or 4-speed manual transmission available in either of two styles: one with rear doors, the other with lift and tail gates. EnginesThe 1952 Chevy featured a Thriftmaster 216.5-cubic inch or a Loadmaster 235.5-cubic inch, in-line, six-cylinder, valve-in-head engine. The 216.5-cubic inch motor had a bore and stroke of 3.5 by 3.75 inches with a compression ratio of 6.5:1. It generated 90 horsepower at 3,400 rpm. The 235.5-cubic inch engine developed 105 hp at 3,600 rpm with a 6.7:1 compression ratio. It had 193 foot-pounds of torque at 2,000 rpm. ChassisThe 1952 Chevys had front and rear semi-elliptic leaf-springs. The four- or three-speed synchromesh manual transmission had a column-mounted gearshift and used a dry single-plate clutch. The brakes were mechanical expanding-drum types. Steering was by a recirculating worm and ball-nut gear.
