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!

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

I 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 😂

Not tryna rag just tryna help here but the suspension company i believe youre referring to is pronounced (mcgoys)

I 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?
Dexter
music taste is fire btw
Jeremy
Static Escalade is dope af

Hey can anyone help with Tom’s merch i’m gonna buy a sweatshirt, but I don’t know what size I wear a large T-shirt and sometimes a large sweatshirt or sometimes a extra large depends on the brand anyone got any suggestions?
Andrew

TOM'S REFURB.
So I've heard... stay tuned lol
TOM'S REFURB.
If 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

Mario V
tom why didnt you just cut the old springs instead of getting different ones and cutting those ones up lmao?
Jorge Lopez
You can cut the plate where the bump stop was sitting
Sam
fantastic content, love the longer video mister refurb.
Charlo

James Bingus

Another $900 civic video with the red one in the back at the start of the video?😂👌
Nick Winchester
Anyone notice 8 ball with a hood??!!!
Grfiore
Gotta black out all that chrome trim
Joey Turch
You selling the factory wheels
David James
I 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.
Collin Walter
In 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
Cody
You can get 15+ style Escalade taillights for these, take out the C-Pillar plug and play. Have them on my Tahoe.

I 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.

Not 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
TOM'S REFURB.
I still have it but it's just a huge project. Tough to set the time aside when the vids don't even perform average
Isaac Minor
That refurb special!
Frank balmer
Bangers only on the shop playlist fuuuuuck
Michael Dooley

Porter Mc
Do you still have the fscalade? I would love to see it at least drive before you get rid of it, there's no way I'm the only one that wants to still see that
Dylan Andrews
I 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!
Brett Johnson

Sam Bellman

Liberty
Dream truck being an Escalade is not at all what I imagined but absolutely rad
Jordan Klein

TOM'S REFURB.

Mark Wedow
8 ball looking sweet with that black cowl hood
Logan McAllister
Gonna HAVE to tease the main channel with a pic of this thang😂
David James
If you tell us you don’t wanna work on F-scalade because you’re bored with it, I’d still respect you.
Logan McAllister
Your a bad influence Tom, why is my oil pan 2 inches off the ground Tom?
Sal
Do 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
Ian Wiggins
I love where this is going hahaha
Kirby Young
Need a Tom's custom exhaust on this pimp mobile
Dan Sloan
8balls got a hood now?
Elliott Burton
Playlist is on point😂
Vincent 'IcyFire' Geetar
wow this is cool but where is larry
trevor
you 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
sammeio
Yes like this approach Tom keep it up it is Tom’s refurb raw
Drew Yoquelet
Super hype for the next Ron video
Oz
