How low can I drop 07 Escalade w/AWD

[NeverSatisfied]

My father owns a 2007 Escalade with the 6.2 and AWD, He currently has 26s with 305/30/26 I believe on and also a 2/3 Mcgaughy's drop(spindles, coils, shock extenders) it also has autoride on it.
The Caddy looks amazing as is but the way me and my dad are there is no such thing as low enough. Just wondering if it would be possible to go any lower on the caddy even tho it has AWD. We heard that 2/3 is the lowest you can go having AWD because it would put to much stress on the cv joints and cause problems. But see some other suv owners with 4x4s and they are being able to drop their drastically I don't see why we couldn't, but I just wanted to get some expert opinions on it before he drops some more money into it.

Any help would be great, thanks.

You can go lower then 2/3 with AWD. Lots have done it. Tony will be able to give you more info on what kits you can get. Also post some pics of said Dads Esky!

How low are you and your dad really wanting to go?

Also with that pic looks like it is more of a 2.5/4 kit with how low the rear sits

He wants to go around a 1" more in the front and 2" more in the back and take out the autorideThe stance it has right there is because all the air is let out of the shocks in the rear. The autoride lifts it up about .5-1" when running

i have a 3/4 and rear 5/6 kit

all you need to do is wire in resistors and its done and ride is great. I posted up a 4/6 on a awd one last week. no issues

another option
in front he can do the drop stuts with the camber bushings or send me the struts and I do my strut mod

in rear the djm rear hardware kit along with my 6 inch drop springs and it will get that back end down and autoride still will work

Damn that is clean. For some reason black on black and white on white really pop to me. I see so many try and fail around here though.

On a side note does anyone know if those chrome window trims fit the Tahoe?

I wouldn't see why you couldn't swap them out
