Im sending out the 3rd brake light for a full led swap and going to tint it a little darker. due to how close the chrome is looks a little lighter than the taillights since taillights have more depth to them.

Looks good. X2 on darker third.

I love it, save for the "freaky" stickers.

my wife made the sticker on the rear glass says baby on board under it but i took that part off. GOing to prob get rid of the clay cams sticker.

 

[Goodinblack]

Honestly, I am SHOCKED you have ANY stickers on it at all.

 

[NORCAL SS]

lol i took off the 2 on the gate but kept the one on rear window on.

also the 2 sides ones are my tbss site and my ctsv site so free advertising.

Wonder what's wrong with it

Well just got a email from Chris hes going to start on the complete LED 3rd brake light conversion this weekend. This is the last and final mod I'm doing on the truck. Not going to do the blower or spray or converter. Going to be building a stroker motor for my ctsv shooting for 800 at the wheels so go fast goodies will be going onto that one.

 

[NORCAL SS]

Cali LEAN lol

 

[Smokymance]

All the way around?

 

[NORCAL SS]

No the 5305 are back in at 34.5 again in rear. I just wanted to show the tb coils on my truck and what it sat at since the heights were brought into question recently. The 5305 on autoride tows great with 5 people in the truck and the ctsv in the rear plus dont want to go lower in front since I did about 3/4 of a inch with my strut mod. I don't like going more than one inch on stock autoride shocks or oem regular shocks doing my strut mod.

 

[Goodinblack]

Still one of the nicest Escalades on here.

 

[Blazed]

So you're at 34 in the front with spindles and 3/4 strut mod?

 

[NORCAL SS]

33 7/8 my truck sits higher in the front since it was 2wd (awd escalade sits a little lower due to tc weight) Was about 3/4 of a inch higher before my strut mod. I posted pics of the original drop and you can see front was higher which is why I did the strut mod. Post #157 shows this.

Oh I see ok cool.
Lookin good.
