    I think that part of the problem is that I've not been able to find just one place to go to. For example, there are several good companies that provide good aftermarket seats. Others provide grills and push bumpers. Others provide things like rock and air delectors.

    Have anything in particular that you're looking for?

    Default Aftermarket parts...... Ebay is great

    I have purchased several aftermarket accessories for my burbon, Many of them from Ebay. Otherwise you can check out vendors like stylinconcepts.com, or pick up a truckin magazine and there are a lot of vendors there. For the light replacements though you can get them much cheaper on Ebay, I replaced all the front lights on my '95 with the clears, thinking now about getting around to the back.

    Also put on a tube front bumper from smittybuilt, a cowl induction hood and a billet grill from ebay.

    Good luck.

    Good advice on eBay. Have gotten several good deals on there.

    I'm working on putting up a member's photo gallery on here. You'll both have to post some pics when it's up.

    Anyone ever put an aftermarket Escalade front end on 97 Sub before. I just bought one and looking to see if anyone had any problems with it. I.E parts

    I'm not sure if I've every heard of someone doing that. What are you looking to move over, the whole front end?

    The kit replaces front fenders, hood, bumper, grill and lights. It makes it look like a 99 Escalade but on a full size Suburban. The finished product looks great in the truck magazines.
