Truck is looking really nice in this photo.

Thanks man, that was last month at a school fundraiser car show that my brother put his Challenger in. Don't know if I even got any votes, but it helps the kids, so I figured fk it I'll enter.

damn! That's almost exactly 100,000 more than my '02 Denali! It makes me feel good to know that I can look forward to a long life out of mine too.

Looks great! Question though, how hard are the handles to disassemble so you can paint? I've been thinking about getting a set of Esky handles, but don't want to have to have them color matched as I already have color matched handles on my Yukon. Would be awesome if I could just swap the color matched buckets onto the Esky handles.

Disassembly was about 25-30 pictures and labeled 4 zip-lock bags. You need a flat head and set of needle nose. they are held together with spring tension, could pivot pens, and C clips. they are not hard just take pictures because they are different for each door. and you will forget the way the spring is oriented. a few pictures and you are good.

Are those different than the Denali handles which are completely color matched ? In other words they have matched levers too, so no chrome.

YES they ate ESCALADE and the pulls are complete chrome. not a stick on plastic junk. the non pull section is the same for denali and escalade. The pulls are different.

ordered my moog problem solver upper control arms today
next week tie rods
week after that Maxtrac 2" coils

getting ready to throw the spindles and all the rest of this ^^^ on by Thanksgiving.

can't wait to get a little more lift up under this truck

oh and also ordered replacement ddm tuning hid bulbs since i though 6000-6500k HID might match the LED white, well they're too blue so I am ordering some 5000k ones so i can get that pure white

That's what I was wondering, if the Denali and Escalade is the same except for the pulls, which are chrome on the Escalade and colormatched on the Denali. Reason I was wondering is it seems some are installing the Escalade handles and then talking about painting the chrome pulls, when they could buy the Denali ones and have a completely colormatched handle assembly.

My Yukon has color matched handles from the factory. I think the Esky pulls would look good on my yukon, I think I'll find a set and swap just the pulls so I don't have to pay to color match.

Put Ford leveling keys in my Yukon XL, got the front end up where it should be, currently at 39 1/4" fender height. Putting the Z71 springs and 2" spacers I took out of my totaled Suburban in over the weekend, should be just about the same height as the front. Gonna be a few weeks before I can put the Zone body lift in, I need a solid 8 hours free with no rain (doing it in the driveway, no garage to work in.

And that's right, FORD Leveling keys for a 97-2002 Expedition/F150. Not just a little bit indexed like Chevy leveling keys, nor a bit more like the stock Ford keys. These have about a 15-17* index compared to the stock keys I took out.






And a pic, as promised.

How long did it take you? I just got my keys today, and I'm sure they are just as rusted as yours were.

I have my Bosch SDS Max hammer drill on standby to knock those bars out of place, if needed.

Installed an LED 3rd brake strip. Not sure if I like it.
