It'll ride better with a couple hundred pounds added to the rear, get some lead or sandbags. Look around the forum for some fairly recent photos of leveled and lifted 2500s.
Just finishing up my exterior and lift. Gonna start an interior swap as well. I'm interested in pictures of yours and advice. I was thinking of either doing a same year esky swap or a 2018 interior swap. This Yukon is a Denali.

It looks like this thread is over 2 years old. I'm guessing the swap mentioned in this thread never happened.

Yeah the OP only has the 3 posts in this thread, never to be heard from again since April 2018. I’m pretty sure that if he tried he failed. Like was pointed out earlier, it’s not really feasible due to the electronic modules not communicating.

The Yukon is stock and the Sierra is lifted. Which for photos and anything specific? Ask away.

Here is my swap! My Tahoe is a 11 and was in an accident and got a whole front clip and doors from a 10 front windows would not roll down! This interior is from a 10 as well have full harness from bcm and everything! I plugged in everything and it does turn on but my cluster is acting up and radio not working . Ac turns on but I did it in one night and kinda got burnt out on it and been sitting for the last month . I have the ECM from the Escalade and the fuse panel from same Escalade. Going to have my engine tune programmed in it soon. And going to try my doors sooon as well!

Attached a couple pics as well . I’ll post a new thread as well look for it

Maybe sure you get the ecm tuned to your vin. If it's the wrong vin it won't work.

Yea idk . I’ll try and find out if not taking the Escalade harness out and putting the Tahoe harness back in and making it work
Im not sure exactly where the vin numbers would clash--donor vun and your vin--but if it comes up with 2 different vins in the pcm, it won't start. Safer to get the donor pcm matched to your vin.

I would say go everything Escalade, which is what it sounds like you are planning after tuning it for your Tahoe motor.?
Sounds like you already plugged in the the Escalade BCM?

I don't notice any difference in HVAC wiring diagrams between the Tahoe and Escalade models, only difference in the hybrid models.
And it looks like the A/C compressor request from HVAC module communicates only with the ECM, which controls the compressor..
Perhaps the Escalade HVAC sends a different compressor signal that only the Escalade ECM understands?

Scanner might help, at least you would know if the controls are registering or if it's something else like the pressure switch or evap temp sensor.
