That definitely seems like a good deal, but it doesn't look like you got the cross rails with yours which saved you about $150-$200. You are missing a couple of pieces for the center of the rails. There is a guide plate which locks in with the center torx screw. The rail slides over this plate and locks in the rail prior to screwing down the ends. I'll see if I can't find those part #'s for you.

You are correct! no crossrails.
And I gotta tell ya, I was starring at the center section convinced I needed another part/bracket to hold it down but partsman couldnt find it. If you have the numbers I would greatly appreciate the help.
Thanks!

I just talked to Jeff and ordered the same for my hoe. Does anyone feel that the cross bars are that important? I dont travel that much and can use the rear for my suitcases.

I talked to Jeff and ordered mine on Monday....i went ahead with the crossbars..would rather have them and be able to decide if I want them or not..if not, put them in the closet with the stock roof rack.

Anyone have any 'lessons learned' from taking off the stock parts and putting on the new Escalade parts? Any problems that could have been avoided, special parts,etc. needed for disassebly and removal? HOPEFULLY I will be doing it on Friday night/Saturday morning....if not, next week.
