    What I love most about my 2006 Escape is there are always plenty of them at the pull-r-parts yard to scavenge from.

    Everyone thinks im wasting money trying to add a 2inch lift to my escape but youve definitely proved that those rigs can look badass! Definitely gonna throw a little bit of money at mine now.

    Your rig looks great and a lot cleaner than mine. Mine is a work and camp escape . Seats have not been up in long time ,and filled with work and hunting gear. 370,000 plus ,mud stained, and half the dash is lit up. God bless from Nova Scotia.

    see, for my escape's sound system i have a 22 inch cubed box with an 18 inch speaker.
    it takes up alot of space but it sounds amazing. and to be fair it came out of my old trailblazer because i was too cheap to buy more speakers. i replaced all of the door speakers with new speakers (previous owner managed to blow them using only the factory cd/cassette stereo)
    I like the escape so far. its the easiest car i've ever had to work on. heck if your on flat ground you dont even need a jack to get under it most of the time. If you do buy one second hand i would personally replace the hose clamps on the radiator with the screw in kind. the pinch ones suck.

  • @jimmiller4667
    @jimmiller4667 Před 5 lety +1

    What is the brush guard attached to? The lower rad support? You realize the "crash test programs" (the designed crush points) are weak structures, right? Hopefully you ran some tubing back to the unibody? Hate to see you use the winch and pull the front end off it.

      @jimmiller4667 Před 5 lety

      Noah Hitt lol! So true, came in from the garage and the wife went to bed early sick. Been searching escape vids as I was thinking of building a strong mud truck version. Just got offered a 93 f350 with a 5.8 for dirt cheap. Probably won't see me on escape vids anymore. Modern suv built into a strong off road rig seems interesting, but there are so many better choices out there. I see now it has severe limitations that would be expensive and time consuming to correct. Better to start with a 4x4 in the first place. If I want to drive down gravel roads it'd be fine but I'll be up to the hood in mud so...yeah, it's going to take too much.

      Kevin Baron be careful, with that much lift you are in danger of the axels getting pulled out. I would go with one or the other, not both unless you are planning on doing modifications to the axels
