Anyone using Eibach rear swaybar with lowering kit

[Slow5.0]

I didnt use the pre drilled hole because I didnt like where it put the 2nd hole needed for that bracket. It would have landed the 2nd hole right on that recessed cup. My OCD wouldn't allow it.
Its a 4" drop. Thats probably the most you can get while still keeping the autoride. That shock is just too long. I'm thinking of trying an airide shock to see if it would work with the autoride compressor and sensor. I was hoping one of the big airide manufacturers would come up with a replacement, but I guess there isn't enough market.
Im using the DJM shock extenders and control arm relocation brackets. It corrects the pinion angle. The control arms are Curries made for a gm muscle car. The tahoes share the same geometry as the old muscle. Just had to modify the joints.

Whats part # for DJM control arm relocation brackets, i found this but those brackets doesnt looks like yours

Yes, that's the kit I used. RK2007. It lowers the rear lower control arm by atleast 5", correcting the pinion angle.

I got RK2007 kit, didnt installed just yet. When you say this kit corrects pinion angle, thats when you dropping rear 3-4" right?

Yes, 3-4". Any more than that and you'll need adjustable control arms. Also, make sure you do the free travel mod or you'll be bottoming out everywhere.

That is a nice setup.

I went with Spohn upper, lower control arms and Panhard bar. Riding Hotchis sway bars in the front and back. No rubbing issues. If I was to change the diff cover, I could see where I may end up interfering. No plans to change that out on the Escalade. I did on the 02. CC, and the Duramax.

Installed DJM LCA and shock relocation brackets. Stock height vs Belltech lowering kit there is difference 2° in drivrshaft angle. Now im gonna drive it for little bit and see how much driveshaft angle DJM relocation kit fix

After short hwy test looks like it rides much softer on patholes vs belltech setup. And dfive shaft angle is 1° off from factory angle, not bad fix for 4" drop in the rear
Also on hard braking clunk from the rear is gone, now i have to figure out clunk noise from both front sides when is wet outside. Must be darn ball joints
