Ruining an Escalade by Making it Cool
Added 2025-02-11 22:29:57 +0000 UTCI FINALLY found one of my "dream" trucks for a good deal, and it's nice! Now, watch me make it completely not nice, but way, way cooler by SLAMMING IT!
This week, we went for a much more "raw" approach with more footage. What do you guys think? Open to any opinions!
Comments
Old video I know, but for future reference, the upper ball joints didn't seat fully in the spindle because the spindles are likely designed for stamped steel control arms which have the smaller gmt800 upper ball joint. The cast control arms have a larger diameter shank so they don't fully seat in stamped joint tapers

2025-03-09 06:00:28 +0000 UTCI have a 04 rcsb Silverado that’s been lowered but doesn’t have a c notch, is it normal for the rear axle to just slam against what I’m guessing is the frame very violently 😂

2025-02-23 17:17:55 +0000 UTCI have a 2009 Sierra Denali 6.2 awd I bought new. I've been told any changes to that front end will cause all kinds of problems? I've always wanted to levelize it? Your thoughts?

Jakob white

2025-02-18 03:36:00 +0000 UTCIf I knew what I know now I would have only bought the drop spindles and rear tahoe shocks. I had't lowered one of these before this

quinn davenport
2025-02-15 03:51:31 +0000 UTCtom why didnt you just cut the old springs instead of getting different ones and cutting those ones up lmao?
Mario V
2025-02-14 23:16:37 +0000 UTCYou can cut the plate where the bump stop was sitting
Jorge Lopez
2025-02-14 23:09:34 +0000 UTCfantastic content, love the longer video mister refurb.

2025-02-13 19:41:13 +0000 UTCGotta black out all that chrome trim
Grfiore
2025-02-13 18:33:48 +0000 UTCYou selling the factory wheels
Joey Turch
2025-02-13 11:32:57 +0000 UTCI totally get it. I’d love to see it finished, but it makes sense to have it on the back burner when a video like the Camaro makeover takes a 10th off the time to make, and might get the same amount of views.
David James
2025-02-13 07:12:13 +0000 UTCIn my opinion it would look way better with chrome wheels. The mismatch of the dirty black paint and the shiny new black wheels doesn't look good to me. You've gotta do the full baller chromed out spec
Collin Walter
2025-02-13 06:13:30 +0000 UTCYou can get 15+ style Escalade taillights for these, take out the C-Pillar plug and play. Have them on my Tahoe.

2025-02-13 05:00:19 +0000 UTCI could watch Tom work on a golf cart. 350 swap a golfie maybe? Me and my grandpa put a grizzly 600cc motor in one back in 2004. It was fun til I jumped it and bent the frame we made.
Rizzo Vegas
2025-02-13 04:31:59 +0000 UTCNot so much bored, just lacking time and support. I know there's a large group of the fanbase that wants to see it done, but they are a minority and the project is insanely time consuming

2025-02-13 03:41:33 +0000 UTCI still have it but it's just a huge project. Tough to set the time aside when the vids don't even perform average

Porter Mc
2025-02-12 21:16:48 +0000 UTCI loved the first Escalade, so now I went and bought an 08 Escalade esv that I want to make crazy fast and now you get my Escalades twin? Love your content Tom!

2025-02-12 02:14:30 +0000 UTCIf you tell us you don’t wanna work on F-scalade because you’re bored with it, I’d still respect you.
David James
2025-02-12 01:59:43 +0000 UTCYour a bad influence Tom, why is my oil pan 2 inches off the ground Tom?
Logan McAllister
2025-02-12 01:43:18 +0000 UTCDo the boys just hangout with him all the time or do they work for him. I would be so impressed if they all have full time jobs and still do all this shit lmfao

Vincent 'IcyFire' Geetar
2025-02-11 23:21:16 +0000 UTCyou can actually cut the whole welded on section that the bump stop attatches to. i had a sllllammed tahoe we converted to coilover rear and you have to cut that part of the frame and you'll have suspension travel again. there's videos on youtube on how to go low on these
trevor
2025-02-11 23:19:46 +0000 UTCYes like this approach Tom keep it up it is Tom’s refurb raw
