    it isn't JUST a RWD vehicle. It is either 2wd or 4wd.  It is actually recommended to launch in 4wd.  So no...it isn't going to "twist in half".   You aren't pissing anyone off. Don't worry.  You just don't really know what you are talking about in this instance. 

    Hes thinking of the 07 and under trucks.  Diesels used to twist the shit out of the tie rods and snap.   

    And yes launching in 4wd especially in a heavy escalade would actually make it easier on the drivetrain

    EXACTLY.  You said it better than i could.  Everyone is an expert but the people that actually know about MY vehicle have said the exact same thing almost to the T you just said.

    I'm working on my 2016 regular cab Silverado.  Essentially the same thing as your escalade (you know what I mean)    people underestimate the hell out of these vehicles.

    How many of those have you replaced on 2015 and up Escalades? From what i have been told by people that have more experience than i do, my tranny is a good one. If it breaks. Ill fix it. with better parts.

    My Tahoe also broke the tranny and the rear end at 100,000 miles. It's a 2001.  I replaced them with better parts and they never broke again.  If this breaks. I guess i will fix it. Just like anything else with better parts.  One thing at a time. Can't do it all at once unless you wanna bust me off some blank checks LOL :D

     

     

    People don't know shit about these k2 vehicles   14-18  gm truck suvs meaning ron36.   The rear axles are a 12b 9 5/8 ring gear.  Shit ain't gonna break.  As for the 8l90e trans you have.  The only thing you can really do to them right now is billet internals and a higher stall.  Which I wouldn't do until it breaks.   I'l give it to gm for these vehicles.  They did a great job making everything bigger unlike the older models.   

    Drive it like you stole it till it breaks.  Then fix what breaks.  But until then. Enjoy it

    Damn, no one got this upset when strange duck actually said the n word. Must be because he called me one or is everyone upset that this dude called a white kid one? Either way, the majority of the people on this forum is racist as fuck. There's a few who aren't and those are the ones I still come here and post for.

    I use the n word but not with a hard r.  Only around certain people because everyone and their mother says it.   It's not what you say.  It' how you say it
