How thick are the rotor hats? 1/2" each or so?

Yeah maybe not even a full 1/2” I just dropped them off today at the powder shop or I’d measure.

Did you know that NBS 2wd escalades with 6.0s also got a 14b variant? Just discovered that a few months ago but wasn't sure if it came narrower or had any other differences.

I'm sure someone already asked but Imma ask again.... Why didn't you just build links for the truck? Would have been bitchin with the bed cage and everything.

Mostly because I already have expensive Deaver springs and because I have zero interest in a long travel front kit. I like the idea of the long travel but I dislike the extra width for daily driving especially parking garages which I unfortunately frequent, the bed cage is very unlikely as well. More likely I will extend the shock mount below the axle but not lower than the bottom of the diff and the upper mounts will be as high as I can get them without hitting anything and without going further than the Bilstein 7100s make a shock.

I would love to have something to eat up whoops and take jumps but financially it just makes more sense to go buy a new SXS. For now, I'll keep my street truck and ride my beat to fuhq 2001 Honda Rancher when I want spine compression therapy

They make short body 7100s as well. So you can get the same travel in a shorter package. Look into them if you wanna stay under the bed floor
