    Escalade Questions

    That's what I'm starting to wonder. Wondering what the distance from the bottom of the hitch receiver to the ground is on someone who is running a factory setup for comparison Sent from my LGUS997 using Tapatalk

    Escalade Questions

    I don't think they lowered it however they previously converted the front to Sunoco standard and it looks like they might have been adjusted up to level the front Sent from my LGUS997 using Tapatalk

    Escalade Questions

    This is the part number on the rear coil springs 25783731 I originally ordered a set of MOOG that were apparently the heavy duty part for Tahoe but they looked so dainty and weak that i sent them back and ran with these that were in it. I hope I can figure out what I'll need to get rid of this...

    Escalade Questions

    09 Escalade I have a couple questions (I'm becoming frustrated and discouraged) Recently I did some work (new front brakes, new CV axle, new wheel bearing hub) and while I was at it I switched the rear to Bilstein 5100 shocks. Looked like it already has new coil springs in the rear so I left...

    09 Escalade Rear Suspension

    I'm looking at the bilstein 5100 for the rears and Tahoe AC Delco heavy duty springs. The front has already previously been converted. I will still need to find the resistors I'll need for the back. Will this set up for the rear net a raise? I'm looking at getting a heavy metal brand lift kit...

    09 Escalade Rear Suspension

    I think I definitely am leaning towards switching the rear to a standard suspension. I don't know enough at all about air ride to feel confident in tracking down and fixing any future problems. I mostly only tow a 12' utility trailer with a UTV several times a year. I hope that would be alright...

    09 Escalade Rear Suspension

    Air pumps never came on ever. Once I started noticing the ride height not going up under load I took a look. One of them looks like this. (Pic) Sent from my LGUS997 using Tapatalk

    09 Escalade Rear Suspension

    I've got an 09 Escalade and shortly after I bought it last winter I kept getting Service Suspension System message. I still get it today. Noticed after some time when I started using it to pull loads that the back suspension wasn't engaging and filling the bags. Now it seems something has gotten...

    09 Escalade Rear Air Suspension

    My rear suspension isn't functioning properly, and it's starting to drive me nuts. I have owned the Escalade for a few months and previous owner had converted the fronts to traditional suspension and also replace rear compressors. I noticed the first time i towed something a few weeks ago the...

    2009 Escalade

    Back to confirm (seems I forgot about everything while I was out of town) I believe there is water coming in at the point at the top of the windshield, although I can't get the pictures to load from previous poster. Is there a fix to this spot? I have also noticed I think there is water...

    2009 Escalade

    Here's photos of the driver's side and passenger side. It looks like both seals are there and good shape. When I looked at the ice build up previously, it was directly below where the hood and windshield meet area. Two of the pictures which are hard to see are looking into the front fender and...

    2009 Escalade

    Hey all Thanks for the replies and info. I just got home from being on vacation and finally got back "online". I'll snap some pictures after work. We finally came outta the deep freeze and the issue of checking the suspension system has went away. I really appreciate all the help to my...

    2009 Escalade

    Also, regarding the heat/blower issue I wanted to clarify The heat does get warm after a while of driving. The issue seems to me that it is not blowing it out with much force. Hence, the windshield taking forever to thaw/defrost, my feet always being frozen while driving, and basically having...

    2009 Escalade

    Now I'm wondering what seal you are talking about To me it looks like all the seals are good (at face value) It would explain a lot if this is being caused by seals that are missing. But I'm not sure what exactly to look at to make sure that is not the case Sent from my LGUS997 using Tapatalk

    Here's inside the driver's door jam Barely got a dusting of freezing drizzle last night and this is the amount of accumulation I'm dealing with. Passenger side door is basically similar about. Back two doors also get accumulation, just not this much but enough to freeze the doors shut. Sent...

    2009 Escalade

    Cruise control it seems will not engage on certain drives. I thought maybe if the cruise control was left on (button depressed) after last drive and was still depressed upon starting and driving again is when it seemed to not want to engage that next time. (If that makes sense). I go to set the...

    2009 Escalade

    I've got a couple of questions/concerns that I've noticed after owning this vehicle for about a month now. And what a month of weather it's been to have it. - I've got a headlight out. Is there any words of wisdom when it comes to changing these things? It doesn't look pleasant - I've noticed...

    Escalade Headlight Issue

    Got my new to me Escalade a few weeks ago. Just noticed the other night a headlight is out. Started looking into it online and now I'm wondering if it's a bulb or if I need a ballast and relay harness. Is there any way to tell? It seemed like when I hit the unlock button that that bulb...

    Do you happen to have a pic of closer to the fronts? I may just go with fronts. I've got after market wheels on right now that are a little bigger than the factory 22s that i will likely be running again once weather starts cooperating Sent from my LGUS997 using Tapatalk

They're 18" wheels but the tires are more aggressive all terrain tires that i want on for the remainder of winter as they are better in the snow than the...

    2009 Escalade

    I had read on another forum site somewhere that was generally 5.3 and 6.2 talk about Diablo Tuner and Diablo-Lew custom tunes. Does anyone have any experience with that at all? I had been looking at the Diablo Trinity T2 Platinum and had seemed to be finding good reviews.

    Also, a big turn on with this particular one was that the owner is a detailer so it was very clean and kept up- even when I went to go look at it after a fresh snow storm. What is a Tech-2? Is that an automotive scanner? Sent from my LGUS997 using Tapatalk

    2009 Escalade

    It is AWD. I have had ebony interior in the last 2 vehicles and 3 of the last 5. Haven't been a fan of it especially when it's sunny and hot outside. Only down side of cashmere is a lot of the Escalades I looked at with it had more visible wear/dirt- especially in the seatbelt strap. Sent...
