9t9hoelt Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 (edited) AMTs Escalade EXT. Added an IFS bracket lift, similar to Full Throttle suspensions or Cognito and Whiplash types. Big IFS kits never meant to go offroad. I didnt like how i did the front bracket so i cut the lower control arms off the frame crossmember, made a new bracket to drop the LCAs and returned the cross member to stock location. Added/made the drop torsion bars, kicker bars, scratchbuilt a sway bar, and still kept the kits ability for poseable front wheels. Still have to finish the rear. Add some upper control arms and shocks all the way around. Scavenged a rear axle from revells 99 silverado since AMT only molded the bottom half of the axle and left the top hollow. I cut the top half of another diff and glued it to the AMT front differential. Edited December 25, 2013 by 9t9hoelt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
