Hello all, looking for advice, knowledge and ideas.
Have 2000 Escalade project truck with 20” aftermarket wheels, tires are shot and purchased some 2500 take offs, Goodyear trail runners at 275/65/20 for good deal. Completely rebuilding front end then rear end (steering suspension bearings brakes axels). So tires are about 35” and I need to make them fit. Currently not interested in cutting frame for lift kit and doubtful about cranking cause of ride quality. Have few questions below and sure more to follow.
What is gained by inverting ball joints?
Thinking 1” crank will allow wheels to fit due to their narrowness compared to others. Stock keys thoughts/issues?
What do aftermarket tb keys offer?
Want bilstein 5100s cause may lift in future. At rest 14.5” drooped 18”. Does this sound right? And which 5100 is needed.
Anyway to modify upper arm stop to allow for cranking and not lose ride quality?
