Do you mean swapping an Escalade front end onto a Tahoe? People do that all the time. There are a couple guys on this forum that I can think of that have. If you mean swapping a Tahoe front end to an Escalade, then no, I have not seen one.

The second. I may be purchasing an NBS Escalade soon but prefer the Tahoe front end and am not really fond of the Escalade front end.

I know many people typically swap it the other way around so what I want to do should work also right? I'm hoping maybe I can find someone with a Tahoe to trade front ends

Because I really like the rear of the escalade and the roof rack running boards and handles.

That's probably what I'm gonna do. I think that will be cheaper than getting a Tahoe and getting the escalade vents, running boards, roof rack and handles!

Does anybody know exactly what Tahoe parts I would need?

If you haven't bought it yet why not buy a loaded Tahoe or Yukon denali? It would be cheaper and less work.

Ive had a denali and a tahoe before but do u think the tahoe front end would be more expensive then escalade roof rack, running boards, handles, and tailgate.

Also if I got a tahoe I would need an ss bumper cover and color matched grille shell.
