New project

[amtrucker22]

Got a new to us lade. Our previous lade was an 02 and we spent a lot of time on the cadillacforum in the 02-06 section. When I got the 2010 I bumped up to the 07-14 section and started drooling over soulsea's esky and he has mentioned this forum quite a bit so I thought I would join

Since we got the 10 I got the windows tinted and installed a B&B exhaust. I plan on installing some swaybars per norcal's suggestion as this lade sits high and rolls like no other. It is CPO so we are not going to drop it yet.... That will come though.

Need to install line outs for amps and subs...

Here is a pic of the the Old 02 Pearl White and a pic of the new 10 Black Ice ~

I am going to make this into my build thread and track my mods here. If anyone has suggestions feel free to post.

Installed the B&B exhaust last week. I did not realize I was going to have to cut the old exhaust out (I did not want to drop the axle). So that was the only real down side and it took a little longer because of the cut. Here they are side by side. I got the exhaust used at a really good deal.

Here are how the tips hang out -

It sounds great with 0 drone. It is not loud but you definitely can tell it is there.

Installed a PAC NU-GM29 Navigation Unlock Interface so we can control dvd in motion, program navigation in motion, and enable the rearview camera while in drive (haven't hooked up the last wire for that yet).

Here is the sound clip although it does not do it justice. Sounds throatery (is that a word) in person.

Nice esky!!

You have a lot of good info on your build thread also. I have a lot of reading to do...

Love the color...Good look!!!

Installed a mirror mount for a V1 radar detector. I will run the rj21 this weekend.

 

[GalaxyBlackEsky]

Congrats and nice looking. I really like that color.

 

[phattire]

I like the color as well.

Looks like I have a new mod on my list - that V1 mount is nice!

Congrats and nice looking. I really like that color.

Thanks. Love your truck too.. Gotta do some reading.

I like the color as well.

Thanks. I got this one from here --> LINK

This is another good option (but more expensive) which I have been told snugs it up closer to the mirror. --> LINK

Was able to acquire some Hotchkis sway bars at a highly discounted price so I purchased those and installed them yesterday. Truck handles a lot better.

I was worried about widening the clevis frame bracket which wasn't the problem. The problem ended up being me breaking 3 out of the 4 bolts when taking off the front sway bar subframe brackets. That really sucked ass... The rest went smoothly.

Been kinda quiet as I sold my GTO and got a new truck. Picked up an 05 SRT-10 Yellow Fever. Not everyones cup of tea, but I love it. The guy who owned it before me believed in vinyl and chrome which I am not really a fan of either. So I have some work cut out out for myself on that. I figured I would post a pic of my YF up though. She only has 12k miles on her!

 

[Sevenevez]

whew. nice SRT man! those things are hella rare. 6spd or auto?

 

[amtrucker22]

Thanks. Unfortunately it is an auto. As soon as it starts giving me problems though they have a 6sp swap out and that is my plan.

It feels like a turd compared to the GTO which had 50 more hp and weighed 2k lbs less!

Love your esky!

Love your esky!

Thanks. I got to get back on it. Need to get the stereo installed and possible the tails blacked out.
