Nice, I’ll have to look them up.



That’s how it looks in the sun, I need to get more pics like that.



I’ve got the Cognito idler pivot assembly upgrade, Cognito heim joint tie-rods, RedHead HD Steering box, and I put new AC Delco pitman and idler arms on when we did the lift.

I don’t have a good photo of the idler assembly and center or the gear box, O have to grab some tomorrow and put them in my build thread, here you can see tie-rods.

Do have more detailed photos of the led strips installed, I need to do something about mine ASAP.

And I finally got to wash it and since I was at it I polished the grille, bumper, and the headlights.View attachment 212556View attachment 212557 View attachment 212558View attachment 212559 View attachment 212560

Anymore details? Anything else you notice or is all normal just no crank? Would a smack to the starter be a good check here?


Im going after it today. Going to feed voltage directly to the S feed on the starter and see. Starter is a year oldish. Autozone. We will see

Did you get the one with the lifetime warranty? I can't remember if mine was from advanced or auto zone but I got the lifetime and had to use it 9 months later

Starter works fine.

Anyone have an idea on how to clean all this grime?

Those valve covers aren't supposed to be black lol

View attachment 212632


your favorite degreaser a stiff paint brush to loosen up the thicker crap and a hose. or i like to go to a local coin op diy car wash and use the heated hi pressure wand. keeps the mess off your own driveway.

i like CRC brand, it stinks less. or theres simple green, many seem to like that. or good old engine foamy brite works too, just stinks bad for a while.

as long as you dont directly spray the alt you dont really need to cover it, everything else under the hood can get wet.

Nope. They said the old ones were fine. Guess I should've told them to do them anyway. I already have 1 brand new one. Driver side hard to do?
I’ve never done them so IDK. I do know they’re a lot easier with the motor out and anything that’s relatively inexpensive like that should definately be done while access is super easy, just as preventive maintenance. Kind of hard to believe they didn’t.

Yeah, the owner was a douche, big time. That's the guy that ruined my AC condenser, and when I told him he damaged it he basically called me a liar. So I told him he could go fu%$ himself.

Remember how you were having issues with your front driveshaft hitting your Y-pipe… Motor mount would have a lot to do with that. After it’s replaced, I would try putting it back in.
Supposedly when it was done the motor mount was good. That would be friggin awesome if the prop shaft would go in.

Took the busted running boards off. Need a set of running boards for an 04 escalade if anyone has.

Messed with the HVAC

No front heat on my '01 SLT.

The rear heat works so I know it's not the core or coolant related, so I tried the actuator relearn procedure. I can hear the actuators move when moving the dials, but still no heat. I'm getting ready to remove the cover under the dash so I can visually watch the blend door actuator and tey to figure this out.
