It will settle a lot, fairly quickly. Give it at least a week, but better yet, give it a wheeling trip.
LOL! Yes. I know. Me too. I have a replacement.Also do something about that light grey corner plastic. It's making my ocd twitch lol

Compulsive disorder of obsession.It really should be CDO, that way it's in alphabetical order.
Nah. Somebody would mistake that for permission to drive an 18-wheelerIt really should be CDO, that way it's in alphabetical order.
Jebus! That's one tall X!It's on the ground!
Nearest dealer is 8 minutes. And they have the Consult.What's the plans for the brakes?
Nice, clean (for now) & so “purdy”.
I'd love to be able to bolt some 4 pot calipers to the X. That'd be amazingNice, clean (for now) & so “purdy”.
Wished my extra Brembo calipers & rotors from my Z32’s would bolt on to my X. Might be doable one day.
Rotors maybe, calipers gotta look at how involved.I'd love to be able to bolt some 4 pot calipers to the X. That'd be amazing
Sounds like a decent find. What's your idea of "beast"?I ran across this 08 OR in FB market place that was about 10-15 miles from my house. 183k, one owner, lady school teacher that appeared to have never been off the pavement. Service records looked “good”, but her husband thought the trans failed due to SMOD. UMMMM....OK @183 K ? So went to look and it had the correct radiator and definitely not SMOD ISSUE. It was priced real good, and & 99% sure transmission is good, driveline transfer case & locker all checked out good. Interior like new except steering wheel & foot brake pad. BUT, Driver side pre cat not good, rattling & probably clogged / breaking apart causing misfiring and not wanting to accelerate much over 35-45. Bummer, and negotiated a much better price & towed it home so hopefully no more cylinder damage, if any, would keep that possibility to a minimum.
Oh I spotted where it had been painted on the driver side, and yes she said she got hit. Driver door & LF fender. Decent repair, paint, I’ve seen better masking but for the $$ it was great.
Now what to do with it. I want to build a beast, but I’m to damn old, and 99% of all my shop tools were stolen about two years ago. (Presses, welders, lathes, jacks, boring bar, & 99% of my hand tools.)
Apologize for the “book”
Pipedream = Full Titan, with HP & TQ + driveline & suspension to turn 35+ rubber easily. Would love to SAS. The big hurdle is where I live, (SC) there are zero fab savvy shops around & all my fab equipment & tools were stolen several years ago, + I’m an old fart and have toddler grandkids too, lol.Sounds like a decent find.

Well I'll be 61 in a couple month's but I still do stupid Shipt like I did in my teen's/twenty's . Why ? WHY KNOT !! when I watch people act there age [ especially the one's over 50 ] 90% of them are boring . I watch older friend's and relative's retire and hardly do anything then all of a sudden there gone ; UFCK THAT !! Now where were we ? Okay , so your 69 and thinking like your 19 . Well we have a 50 year discrepancy in you proper age right off the bat . So if you divide the 50 in half you get 25, so we'll add the 25 onto the 19 that your thinking like and come up with your proper age of 44 !! Don't pay attention to that date on your driver's license it's all an elaborate scheme to make you behave , thus the phrase [ act your age ! ] But the good new's is now that your proper age of 44 has been issued you can pretty much date anything 32 year's old and up and not be a dirty old man/cougar. Now that we have that cleared up I think's it's time for my nap !!Pipedream = Full Titan, with HP & TQ + driveline & suspension to turn 35+ rubber easily. Would love to SAS.

Other downside is would have to triailer it. But,but, there’s no where to wheel around here. WTF am I thinking. A 69 YO thinking like a 19 YO
they want to rebend the upper control arms
My thoughts exactlyThey’re probably just too lazy/incompetent to realize how they are supposed to adjust the UCAs. Good luck in the morning.
Adjustable UCA's are an enigma to the dealership techs.incompetent to realize how they are supposed to adjust the UCAs

I miss both my Yamaha DT 250 b I had in high school and the 490 YZ I bought when I was 20 . Dirt biking thru the wood's was alway's an adventure . That's a pretty bike you got there, early to mid 70's ? . The rounded fin head remind's me of the Yamaha 360 I wanted but they were either discontinued/out of stock [ I don't remember] when I had bought mine.LOL ! Thanks for the pep talk.
