I finally got around to installing my 3" lift spindles, 3" rear coil spring spacers, and 35x12.50R22 Venom Tires/Escalade Black Replica 22s this last weekend. I bought some of those cheesy caliper covers, but only because they were Amazon Warehouse deals for like $15 instead of $200. I had to trim a bunch off the front bumper, the rear inner fender, and the power running boards to fit the 35s. Next up is blacking out the rest of the chrome and painted tow mirrors. I'll have more pics and details up in my build thread later.

Yeah I figured as much. The Esky has antenna in the windshield I guess..?
Think so. I attached thick gauge copper wire to the antenna mast stub--after I removed the antenna--and ran it up behind the rubber windshield gasket, up above, past the passenger door. Reception was better, but still sucked. Some guys lay the antenna mast down, along the inner passenger and zip tie it. I tried that--also sucked, for me. One of these options may work for you tho.

Thanks Tony. Yeah. I’m not jumping on it, just figured it would be a good idea to accumulate this part sooner than later. [emoji106][emoji16].. though, I’m still waiting on a reply, so hope he still has one for me.

Responded to OnStar email good until the 31st using code PRESENT50. Got three mo of the full Onstar package, 100 min of cell time and a $50 gift certificate to use on over 40 vendors.

Third time they’ve done this but last two times it was for 30 days instead of 90 and no gift certificate last 2 times. Our 08 Denali has the old tech in its Navi as well as the original Navi disc. This is a good bandage to get new directions pinged into the DIC the old disc doesn’t have.

They also told me the ck engine light was a faulty oil press sensor. Yup 0 bar pressure on the gauge. Scary it didn’t light up anywhere else except as a check engine light.

Then its the mirror onstar. I was just under the impression that was old tech and GM wasnt supporting it any longer....apparently that was bad information if you just reupped with them.

I would believe your info is correct. I had all my info w/ onstar as a shell account pending to activate because I never let them go past the trial period to actually activate it back to life again.

It seems the more you cancel at the end of the trial period, the better the offers get each time.

That looks great! I like the mirrors. Post up some interior pics when you get a chance. Looks good.

Cheesy usually but for this application the help with the scale.. lifted, bigger wheels.. it fits.

Just detailed the interior and did a quick exterior cleaning.
