I wish you well in your new endeavor [ be it work or just a life change ] :) So not going to ship the X over :( seem's like you've enjoyed it's company . I miss all the past vehicle's I've had except one [ strange how I don't miss all the old girlfriend's ; except one ] Lol :D Stay on the site and let us know how thing's are going for you.
I am not allowed to import my X. I certainly wanted too though. I'll keep in touch for sure. Moving to the Philippines. Time for retirement. But have the X sold already.

Since I put the 2.5 inch lift on the front I've never had the camber set properly since the boot's on the SPC upper's was rubbing so today I took the grinder to the bucket's , smoothed out the edge's then hit it with some rustoleum and installed new boot's and retaining ring's !! Now for a proper alignment :D20210929_095834.jpg20210929_104119.jpg

I’d say you’ve got that bucket aligned perfectly

Lol ; I just looked at the pic's and couldn't remember if I pulled the paper towel out from inside the bucket so I had to run outside ! Lol I Figured it would stop the metal piece's/shaving's from getting up on top of the coil/spacer also covered up the brake's/rotor's .

Installed OEM exhaust flange gaskets today. Had no idea they were actually really good. They’re layered metal and tapered so they’re slightly thinner at the studs and wider where there’s more likely to be a leak.

The process was brutal. After trying and failing to do it without dropping the exhaust, I ended up having to take the whole thing out. But it’s done now, and holding my hands around all the connections with the wife revving the engine, no leaks.

Yeah, they're far superior to any aftermarket ones I've tried.

I LOVE when I’m not the guinea pig tester. I’m glad I didn’t get gaskets yet. Now that you’ve done it twice, any quirks with alignment that you noticed in assembly?

No alignment issues at all. I followed the written instructions that came with it (AFE Hi Tuck). When we did a buddy’s we had to expand out the pipe that went over the other pipe. On mine they were loose and didn’t have to.

That’s awesome. I have the Sport and they made a huge difference. Kinda wish I did the Pro. Can’t wait to see the Max output though!

Fixed it up.. was broke down, didn't know why, thought it was a code camshaft position malfunction, replaced the dizzy, no fixxy, replaced the starter, fixxy! Also fixed bumper up. Was bent to hell from a hit. Was going to take off and replace inner bumper but found that no need, just loosen inner bumper from the top and straighten it out . Did that and it's all good , now just need restore plastic faded ... Need a torch... Will get to that maybe...
