Hey everyone! In today's video, we're diving into a new and exciting project-a wrecked Cadillac Escalade. This one has seen better days, and the engine might be completely shot. But here's the twist: if we can get this motor running, this build will be a surprise gift for my wife!
Join me as I assess the damage, check out the engine, and figure out if this Escalade has any life left in it. It's going to be a challenging journey, but I'm excited to see if we can bring this beauty back to life.

Thank you all for joining. Def appreciate the support
I got my wife a 2019 Cadillac Escalade new and she loves that truck 😊 it has the 6.2 we love Escalades....thanks for sharing brother!!
Love that brother. I love me some caddies.
Ryan, it's a great idea. Don't give up, yet. Maybe pull the plugs and see if it will crank by hand. Add some ATF through the spark plug holes and see if you can free it up if it's still stuck.
Hey brother thanks for always being so encouraging. Really appreciate that. Def some good ideas. Stay tuned not done with her yet. Thanks for comment and support.
I think it would be better if you separate the engine from the car. And also this the tips before install the engine change the timing chain and water pump it would be long lasting for engine
These are great points. It def is a possibility to do that way. Thanks for the comment and support.
I think the pulleys are stiff, whatever I think you should remove the spark plugs, then insert the special camera to check, if there is rust you can add ATF oil, if there is no rust, there is no need for that, I think it is not hidden from you by the way, we Arabs have a proverb that says "You are the master of the knowers" and I think you are too, good luck and we await the rest
Thanks for the proverb brother. Thanks for watching and commenting. We really apprdovate the support.
Seperate the engine and the transmission.because the car had an empact during the accident.something might be broken or locked the engine.e.g torque converter gripping or stuck.The engine might not turn.🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇼🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦
Thats a really good point. Thanks for the comment and support
Just pull the engine/ tans out and remove all the front accessory drive. Get a new crank hub and then turn it over, if that crank pully wobbles then the crank is bent.
That's a great suggestion for sure. Def worth a try. Thanks for comment and support.
pyro fuse must be blown. check voltages
Im not sure they have them on the escalade. I tried looking for one wasnt able to locate it. Def gonna try and see. Thanks for comment and support
Why didn't you buy a motor for your Cadillac, instead you buy another one?
Well I couldn't find a motor anywhere for under 3500 and I also needed the seats and some other pieces. Buying a wrecked donor made sense till it didn't. Thanks for comment and support.
I can sense the disappointment and anger in your voice and demeanor. I absolutely would feel the same way. Have you decided what you are going to do with it?
@Tj4ndirish1 man good catch and great job. It was truly a suck experience. Honestly no. Thanks for comment and support.
I would have said pyro fuse. You need a fully charged battery to fire up ecu . Maybe a high mileage engine.. does it have a security system Cadillac star thingy. You need a computer plug into OBD . Id take a chance and instal in other caddy with good wiring. Does the ECU from busted Caddy have to follow the engine. Could be a cheap ride. Good luck.
Yeah it seems like a Pyro fuse but can't find one. The battery was fully charged when I tried thought that was important. I could plug in a computer and see what she says that's a great idea also. I only have the one ecu since the other was sold with the motor and also this harness. So may have to rebuild the harness also. Thanks so much for the ideas, for watching and also commenting really appreciate it
@@JMRRebuilders yep pull harness. Could drop it at auto electrician . Or price up secondhand one. Or just do it your self if you feel confident. I’m not good with electrics. But there’s always RUclips. 👍 it would be good enough to get engine running maybe find one later. Great you got a spare car for parts. You probably get good money for shell complete. If somebody got one that’s been rear ended. Or find a rear ended one cheap. Good luck. I’ll stay tuned in. 👍👍
Heck yeah let's go.
That one has been hit too hard in the front find one that's been hit in the side you can have better luck
Yeah this is a good point for sure. Thanks for that and thank you for the comment and support.
What are you going to do with this project?
Honestly no clue started off with such high hopes and now kinda discouraged. Thanks for watching and commenting
Man you have over $ 10.000 worth of parts you can sell on the part truck believe me lol
Yeah I hope your right. Got it listed for parts and no one is interested. Thanks for comment and support.
Pull all plugs. Make sure it’s not hydro locked before you crank. Maybe camera down bores. 👍👍
That's a good idea Def should try that. Thanks brother for watching and comment and support
Yeah, we use to buy junk cars and wrecked cars and part them out, heavy front impact damage like that its gonna be a hit or miss, with how the crank pully was bent, I would not at all be surprised if the sudden impact to a whatever it hit damaged the timing components let alone transmission or transfer case with how shoved back the engine is.
Heck yeah brother lets go. Def onto something with how hard it was it. I was hoping it wasnt that bad but dang she got smacked. Thanks for comment and support.
how is yoru friend at crossroad rebuilds i think it is?good video btw
Stephe is doing good. I talk with hi. From time to time. I'll let him know you asked about him. Thanks for comment and support
Maybe try the Pyro fuse
Yeah thats a great idea for sure. Thought of that too. I cant find if esclades have them or not. BUT def a great suggestion. Thanks for comment and support.
Bro where are your safety glasses 🤔 all that stuff the cutter putting out u need something on
I got on glasses brother. You see them right? Either way thanks for the comment and support we appreciate it
Start it just start it
I tell ya what I wish I could. Thanks for comment and support
Lower volume one that's been crashed on the side
Yeah that is a good point. Thanks
i think it might be good its probably oil cooler broke
Yeah keep watching it maybe more than that but Def appreciate the com.e t and support
Just a scratch, that’ll buff right out.
Heck yeah brother just a little spit shine brother. Let's go. Thanks for comment and support
Thanks for another video. Man, that Escalade hit something HARD. I assume it's an LS, can you pick up another engine and still have the parts Escalade for what else you need?
Yeah she got smacked good for sure. It's a 6.2 biggest ls they make. Not sure if it's worth it honestly. Thanks for comment and support
That’s a tough lick on the crankshaft
It sure did take a lickin. Thanks for comment and support.
Sorry I missed the premiere
You will never be forgiven. Thanks for comejtband support
Just a suggestion put your bolts in a can you may need them dud

Good luck with that you'll never make that work without a professional mechanic
well arent you rather optimistic. Gotta say def appreciate the support and comment
Hey bud did the wrecked escalate come from laredo tx? Looks like my wife's truck!
No clue I got it from the atlanta copart. I would have to look and see. Do you know of anything to help identify it? Was everyone OK? Looks like a bad wreck
If it's it then driver walked out without a scratch
Well praise the Lord brother.
Registration was under Abigail Estrada happened almost a year ago ! Just looks so much like it!
