Hello!
My name is Ruslan and I'm from Ukraine.
I want to make total conversion of my '95 2dr GMC Yukon from '09 Cadillac Escalade. I want to move frame, suspension, drivetrain, transmission, engine and interior to my Yukon (I know I'm crazy).
In this thread I will tell you about the work on this project. A little later I will post a video on YouTube with a full report on the work.
I know how to transfer the entire technical part, but I need advice on moving the interior. If you know how to do that, please, tell me how.
P.S I search on google but can't find same project. If you have seen similar projects, please share the link.
Thank you!

Cool project. Might add Mattstrike Mattstrike to it as he loves doing frankenstein type cool shit.

As to the frame splice, how about adding a box around that splice that you weld in. It' be hard to add another cross-brace forward of the other one with the trans there.

He might also be able to help with harnesses/pinouts in relation to swapping over the escalade interior. That isn't my area... :D

I reinforced it from the inside, I want so that after painting the weld is not visible

I guess I'm confused then by your comment about swapping over interiors. Are you talking about fitment??

He still might be a good person to talk to. He (not sure if he still does), worked for *gasp*ford*gasp* doing interior components.
