Thanks boys ... it's been a long time coming with parts piling up in Robbie's Garage.

Living in a temporary apt without storage space I obviously couldn't have done it without his help and patience ... he's a better friend than I deserve. :)

Also a massive thanks to Jenna at Black Bear Performance for great prices on the exhaust and BBK and for the great customer service, once again handholding me through the process at considerable expense to her time and energy. Also a big thanks to NorcalSS for the drop and handling kit and for his usual great customer service.

Looks great Serge. I almost wrecked looking in my rear view as you left. Rolling in the sun looked amazing.

Hope you are as happy with it as it looks. If not, you have a local buyer. ;)

BA means big ass? :think:

Yeah, I gotta wash her and get the proper camera out.

I also have to measure to see how she's sitting cause it looks about 1.5" of rake and pulling the spacer will just about level her. But that actually shouldn't be and I should have about 1/2 of cali lean without the spacer. But I also think everything needs to settle a bit.

On another pleasant note, I am very relieved at the ride, it's actually like stock on the highway and very close to stock around town. Night and day really between this and when I installed basically the same kit and same size rims on the Hybrid, and back then it rode like a pig. Not sure if's because of the Escalade stock suspension, maybe it's the DJM sway bars and hardware, or maybe the shop that did the Hybrid drop did something wrong, but I'm very very happy with it.

I feel bad about pretending in the Poll thread that the exhaust hadn't been bought yet ... no that's not true it was funny and ...

Would that exhaust set up work on a Tahoe?

Only if you get the twin exhaust Escalade bumper or cut out your own bumper. You'd also have to remove the spare. Plus I'm not sure the 6.2 muffler is compatible.

So it's possible but not really practical ... you're better off buying the single out (rear or side swept) touring or sport Corsa made for your truck.

I can tell you the difference between your hybrid and escalsde. Autoride plain and simple.
