Tis a secret place that only supporting members can access. And you still have to request permission and be manually added to the forum.

Usually it might have boobies. But Jim has been mucking it up lately.



Lately? I think you misspelled "greatly"

Honestly, the bottom is dented for sure. But the top looks nice and straight. I don't k ow that it's a big deal.

Also, keep in mind that with thst mileage, the timing belt is due very soon.


Its bent back in nearly to the diff. Ill need to get under it and take better pics. The bushings in it are shot, how hard are those to replace?



Oh yeah I bought it anyway. He wouldnt budge on the price. Apparently about five other guys wanted to come see it as well. So, in for a penny, in for a pound.

Get a new cross member. Are just the lower bushings shot? Those should be easy with a c clamp.


Looks like the big upper bushing is bad. I need a good cut away of that front so i can figure out whats what. Having trouble finding the parts. But Ill know more this weekend when i get under it and dig in. I hope that repair isnt too bad.

Just came back from looking at the X @Prime . No rust which is nice. Supercharger doesnt make odd noises. Drives nice (as nice as a 17 year old suv with 198k on it can) and everyone of the first gens should have been supercharged. thats damn nice. power steering reservoir is leaking.

Most concerning is the front diff mount that runs across the front is bent pretty badly and it needs rubber diff bushings. Clearly it took a shot into something hard. Doesnt pull left or right, or track weird, but that crossmember is badly beat. Not sure what all is involved in that replacement.

Interior nice, rides nice, ac is cold. radio sucks. that crossmember is the only concern i have.

That cross member can be remedied easily with a a sas

After setting for 20 minutes the voltage dropped to 11volts
