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.

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
