Not much but crancked the hell out of the keys to level the front a little. Can't really tell in the pictures but it's a big difference in person. Alignment is next

The back is disproportionately higher than the front. Mine handled strangely and was a loose mess in stock trim. Too much body roll and sway. Instead of lifting the front, I went with a McGaugheys 2" drop in the back. Leveled the truck out and handling improved noticeably. Looks better too. Wasn't expensive or difficult to install.

Just food for thought if you don't like the results of being taller.

I'm thinking of throwing bigger tires once these wear out so I wanted to know how it felt to ride a little bit higher. It's a little stiff since I didn't change the shocks. Before this I always wanted to drop it. I still might. Decisions decision

Installed some Street Scene smooth vent caps on my 04 Yukon SLT. Used duplicolor primer, duplicolor paint, and used 2K clear purchased at an auto body supply store. Not a perfect job, but I'm satisfied with the results.

I think it looks good! Would look great with a nice all terrain tire in 285/55

Amazon and eBay have them. I payed like $160-170. Prepped with 1000 grit paper. The cans of duplicolor primer and paint totaled $18. The can of 2k clear was $24. Duplicolor clear sux. 2k clear has a button in the bottom of the can that releases a hardener. The stuff is good for 48 hours after activating. I got about $200 total into the project. Not bad...

Got my escalade back. Pretty much new front diff. Also swapped wheels. Had my h3 rims on. Went with denali factorys. They're alright but don't plan on keeping them

Finally finished my fogs. Installed yellow 35w bulbs along with ion yellow film on a custom acrylic cover for a deep 3000k look. Also baked them, opened them up and cleaned the faded chrome and removed the center piece to let more light fly out. Then after reseal I wet sanded with 2000 followed with a buffing then polish and finally wax. Original 03 lights were old and faded and now look crystal clear and brand new

Just snowed a foot here and can't wait to test out the yellow against the snow.

Also stretched the adjustment spring in hopes of fixing the vibration problems these fogs always have after years of wear and tear. They seem a ton stiffer
A lot of work just for fogs, hope theyre worth it lol
