im new to this, lifting trucks and suvs. i have a cadillac escalade 1999. this guy in my town has a 12" lifted yukon and i wanted to do a 12" lift on my suv. could you tell me where i could find it for a resonable price i got quoted at 6 g's for kit installation, tires and powder coating some parts and idk if thats a discent price, so if you can help me out i would apprecate it .thank you

 

This is the funniest shit i have read yet.


What do you plan to do with this lifted "escalade"? Cruise the mall....hop a curb or two?

This is 4x4/Offroad...do you really plan to go off pavement?

 

Expect to pay an arm and a leg. That "truck" has IFS, so any kit is going to be substantially more than a kit for a, say, Super Duty Ford or a late 90's dodge. Also I would agree with XratedSi, theres really no point in lifting an Escalade that much. Get a 6 inch with some 35's and pay about half that for eveything, including wheels and tires.

 

Does the 6k include the cost of the kit? If so that does not sound like a bad price... actually sounds pretty cheap for all that you get. Good luck with finding a 12" lift though. It would probably be cheaper to put a solid axle under it and lift it 12" then buying a 12" ifs lift.

 

is yours the awd version? they were known to have front carrier problems. the bearings would go bad. whiplash suspensions makes a 10" and a 14" lift for it though. not cheap! do you plan on taking offroad?

 

Maybe you should take the "6 g's" and invest in some remedial education?

 

lol

 

6 grand would buy a lot of crack, it would be a better investment than this stupid lift kit.

 

Just sound this out in your mind one time guy. "6g's to lift a escalade...." hmm, now does that sound like a good idea, honestly? Spend 2-3 g's and buy yourself a real 4 wheel drive and leave the hoewagon parked on dubs in the garage.
