sounds about right Aquill........last I heard he was looking for a 2nd hand tranny for parts.
He's done more than a few mods to his X if i remember rightly.

N. Y. Giants rule
What was the original purpose of this thread anyway?

 

Nothing kazam..........Its just an " off topic " section with the X type section to pretty much post whatever you want.
There's usually always sumthin being said in it by someone about sumthin....lol

This was a post originally started by jim to get % of posts and views up...and to help as we had quite a bit of off topic talk on purposeful posts (it's gotten better from what it was!)

 

I wonder how his transfer case is holding up with those mods...

If the Xfer case in the X could handle power, I'd be all for modding the hell out of the car. But since it has the strength of a toothpick, I rather not bother with significantly modding the car for performance.

 

Seems to be the view of most peeps here spartan..........It does seem to be the weak point for sure.

The only thing I wish were improved is when your just cruising along and need to use that gas pedal, I wish it was more responsive and the tranny could drop the gears fast enough as the rpms rise. Other than that I like the power, but no matter what I'd be skeptical about modding because of the awd...There are more things that could go wrong not just the transfer case...

Why is it so friggin' cold?....arghhhh!

It's so disheartening. You get your hopes up when you see the sun so intense through the blue sky...then you glance back down at ground level to see heaps of snow and people walking like penguins covered in layers of clothing...

This weather is so depressing. [>:]

Rangers 2 Werder Bremen 0 Go Rangers!!!!!!
Was at the game with my eldest son Jamie (15) and we had a blast.....the atmosphere was electric with 50,000 fans packed in. Rangers played well and picked up the victory. The jobs only half done though as they visit Germany next week for the 2nd leg of the tie.
