    Any interest in 4wd front coilovers to replace tbars?

    Just a reminder, I still have a set of Atomic's lower conversion brackets, along with everything else to do the swap that I want to sell CHEAP. I never installed anything, and I'm selling my Escalade, but I'm way past the window to return to Summit, so if you're interested, PM me and I'll send...

    Any interest in 4wd front coilovers to replace tbars?

    I've got the full setup including Atomics lower brackets and all the shocks, springs, etc. , never been installed, probably won't ever get around to it, willing to sell the whole enchilada for a lot cheaper than what I paid for it. If interested send me a PM and we can discuss pricing, shipping...

    Weird temporary no crank 02 esky

    Hi all, have a strange condition that started last fall. If I jump in and just turn the key to start as soon as I put it in the ignition, I'll either get clicking or the truck will act like I've completely lost voltage and everything goes off, DIC resets date/time, etc like complete dead...

    Arnott Rear shock leak test? Ride height low

    From what you describe, it does sound to me like there is a leak in the system. You need to find the leak and repair it before you burn up your new compressor. Usually what takes out the compressor is one of the shock bellows will develop a leak in it, which causes the ride height to drop, which...

    Tahoe 6-Speed T56 Conversion

    Oh ok, thanks Mike, that was one of the potential roadblocks I saw to doing this in my Esky and I'm glad it's not necessary. I noticed the company that made the mid-shift kits has gone bankrupt and nobody else makes them, so after seeing all the truck guys on pt.net use it, I was thinking I was...

    Tahoe 6-Speed T56 Conversion

    So just to satisfy my curiosity, you left the shifter in the stock f-body location? You didn't have to source one of those ridiculously expensive mid-shift kits that moves the shifter forward on the trans to the inspection plate?

    Any interest in 4wd front coilovers to replace tbars?

    So I've been wondering a lot about this myself, I just ordered up all my stuff yesterday, and I decided to go with the DS303's and the stud top adapters. My primary goal is to make the suspension work really well, not necessarily be super low. I mean I don't want huge gaps either, but If the...

    Coil Over Conversion Installed

    Mike, do you have any ideas why your truck and Blackout's truck aren't very different in front end height even though you have 2" drop spindles and he doesn't? I know his fender is a little higher than yours, but he has taller tires, I would think the difference would be more than what it is...

    Any interest in 4wd front coilovers to replace tbars?

    So for the stud tops, I think we should be subtracting the expected compressed thickness of the bushing/washer combo between the shock and the upper mount, is that correct? so maybe .5-.75?

    Strange sound on initial acceleration

    Ever since I got my Escalade, it has done this, and I just remembered to post about it now. i hear a strange groaning, almost like those old school aaaahooooogaaaa horns, after I start my Esky and accelerate to about 8 or 10 MPH. The noise lasts for maybe 2 seconds at most, then I won't hear...

    Climate Control panel swap

    But I have the computer climate control for the front, so all the sensors and stuff should already be in the truck.... I guess I'll just have to be the guinea pig and try it out.

    Climate Control panel swap

    I have a 2002 Escalade with the electric climate control panel for the front passengers which I really like, but since I also have a sunroof, I have the very simplistic manual controller in the overhead for the rear passengers. I would really like to have the rear climate controller for...
