    Any Way to Firm Up Steering Effort?

    In my 07 escalade I underdrove the PS via pulley swap, also required serp belt. It firmed it up a bit but not anything like I wanted. I'm on my 3rd 07+ esky and had a number of Burbans since then and have not entertained the modification again. Just living with the over boosted feel which is...

    Front and rear sway bar

    I've run Eibach on my short base escalade and tried the hotchkis on this long base and I feel like the eibachs made a more noticeable difference. Being on the ESV though I can't say it's not because of the size.

    Does your 2008 Tahoes autoride compressor turn on every ignition cycle?

    Every single autoride I've owned has run through an on sequence at key on every time. New and used vehicles in my pool as references. Recently replaced my compressor on the esky, it too engages at key on for about 5-10 seconds every single time.

    Do I Even Lift?

    Serg - Realize this is old but if you haven't resolved - I have 4 of the same style wheel dollies you have. I modified a pair for my rears on my 53. Since mine tuck in the fenders so bad in a static stance I had to get creative. Add to it a 330mm tire and maintenance/tire changes are not too...

    Clean07Burb

    Was looking for a comparison of lengths between beltech and djm shock extenders, Clean07Burb climbed under his own truck to get a set of comparison eyes on the two side by side, shot me a couple pics on the celly, and then shipped right quick once we text a bit about how things looked. Above...

    My Air Ride Build Log

    You may want to really think about backing that up with a secondary compressor. It's good insurance in the event one quits on the road and it doubles tank fill times which with a single 380c will be less than desirable. I've used them and they are a 3 minute fill to a usable state on a 5g tank...

    A roller of my 53

    If your remembering the WDT ESV, yes I still have that one.

    A roller of my 53

    Not much by way of progress - kids hold up garage time, I think I was duped. Got her purring over the winter and the bed floor has been raised in prep for moar low in the future. Gonna put her to use over the summer and see where the funds are at for next steps come fall.

    Air ride Question

    Those leveling sensors articulate quite far and no less than several hundred of us have lowered as far if not farther than yourself, adjusting the rod length has not posed any problems. Get yourself a section of 10-24 all thread rod cut to desired length and you will be fine. My ESV dumps air...

    07 yukon denali static drop questions???

    Tony, I think he was looking to know about the install of the resistor now not where to get it again. I used different ones for mine. I've seen cross wired as well as inline types. I think that's an inline version, confirming that will likely get him going.

    Gotta Love Discount Tire

    I'm with Towgmc, I have a killer discount 5 minutes from my house. I've done everything from custom wheels, to repair tires, mounting snows, and grabbing drag radials through them on an as needed basis. I'm a lifer to the store, if I ever move I'll have to commute back to them. I have had an...

    22" Wheels

    I second 07burb - there nothing wrong with a set of 22's in the rain or on the snow. Look at tires vs wheels. What's it got on it anyway?

    Window Tint

    I've used the invisible glass for years on all my tinted rides. Never an issue. You will be fine.

    Window Tint

    As yates stated typically not. Definitely not legal here in illinois. I've not been bothered and I too have had a couple of cars that I tinted windshields on.

    What did you do to your NNBS GMT900 Tahoe/Yukon Today?

    Maintenance weekend - Replaced right front half shaft today due to both cv boots having small grease leaks. I think a rodent got it. Not cool. Also had bad front left hub bearing. Quick R&R and she nice. Installed GM 2 way remote components. Need to get to dealer for tech 2 program and TIS...

    Window Tint

    It will do it more right now during the dry process because there's an added prism effect while the moisture between the tint and glass dries. It will do it still once dry, but it will be much less. Certain angles intensify it as well. I did 30% on whole windshield and ended up getting into a...

    07-13 Suburban Lowering

    spindles and I got the kit from Norcal SS (tony) which everyone has been mentioning. He's good people.

    Window Tint

    I've had some take as long as 4 days to subside these items. They are totally normal. The flaws that you want to watch for are, crinkles they tried to rub out, or scratches. Either of those and I would have them redo it.

    07-13 Suburban Lowering

    This is a 2/3 kit but I played with the ride height sensors to net nearly a 2/4. Just shy of the 4 by about a 1/4". It's an eye trick. Because the tire has larger sidewall appearance is theres more black between fender and rim - thus looks smaller. If you do an all black truck it hides it a...

    07-13 Suburban Lowering

    But what do I slop around on for winter wheels then? Anyone else find it weird that a set of 22" platty's would be discussed as winter wheels? WTF

    07-13 Suburban Lowering

    Here's a more recent shot of mine - I got a touch of settling and I like where it sits currently. 1/2" higher in rear than front on ground to fender lip measurement. lowering and closing the fender gap immediately makes even a 22" wheel appear small. I see a 24" wheel in my future. Maybe next...

    A roller of my 53

    Yeah she's my kryptonite for sure. She wants to drive though, not sure she's ready for the 98lb dual plate set up sittin between the motor and trans. Might need to get in the gym for the next 14 yrs in prep to take it out one day.

    Belltech or Eibach Rear Lowering Springs

    I tugged around a 24ft wake boat and a chapparral 230ssi for a good while while lowered on my denali 3/5 and then also on my Suburban initially 2/3 and then later completely bagged. I wouldn't shrug off an overall lower. 2/3 still leaves some clearance for snow days. The rear of yours is...

    A roller of my 53

    Took my daughter for a cruise. 2.5 yrs old and she loves the thing. I lap belted her in and I went out to catch me some memories and landed this keepsake:
