Title: Finally!!! I hit the jackpot!!!!
Post by: xxSVxx on September 13, 2012, 08:04:26 PM
For those of you who have no idea who I am, I can't blame you.....

I've been searching high and low for a new X that I could justify modding (my prev. X was 2wd and 4cyl).

I accelerated the process a bit tonight...

A friend works at Tuttle Click Dodge and a guy traded this in on Monday night...

2010 Super Black 4x4     I can't tell if it's an Off Road model yet or not; the VIN said it was on a insurance program, but I think I saw an X model.....alas, I digress...

What looks like a 3in lift.....Shrockworks Front bumper.....warn winch.......light bar and 2 KC-ish lights on the bumper up front....

CB radio....LOL......aftermarket in dash Sirius / DVD / touchscreen deck

Jeez.  I'm buzzing. 

Yay.

Woot!!

Awesome deal! And you'll probably get all that for less then what we all paid for our stock rigs! Lol! Great find!
Title: Re: Finally!!! I hit the jackpot!!!!
Post by: xxSVxx on September 14, 2012, 08:04:58 AM
Thanks!!!

That was the motivation behind the purchase....well, that and John (GhostX) sending me threatening text messages about how much of an anchor I had become and how tired he was of letting me sit shotgun while he organizes and runs a trail run of over 20 rigs....

 ;)


Love your Pro 4X by the way.....I almost bought a brand new Pro4X in April but didn't like the deal offered....such a sweet truck!!

Yup.  At your service...

Not offended at all.  

Maybe one of these days you will figure out how to work the "quote"/"color" functions so the mods don't have to constantly fix your posts. ;)  

No offense...of course.  ;D

Finally!!!  Something worth mentioning in my build thread!!!

Ordered the 2.5" AAL from PRG today; he says they're backordered on it but thinks it may ship tomorrow.

Once I have that, I will combine it with the leaf pack I bought off Superslide....and my rear will be in much better shape!!!

MY BOOTY WILL BE NICE AGAIN!!!!

Well, I'm gonna update this post sans pics....  (edit....see link for pics from mod day thread)

http://www.sccxterra.com/smf/index.php/topic,2511.0.html

Added:

-PRG 2.5" AAL

-285/75/R16 BF Goodrich KM2's

Was gifted with:

VDC/SLIP light guest appearances.  Going to have Toro run the diagnostics to see what's setting them off, but I am also going to climb under her to see if it's one of the ABS lines...does anyone know if that's a warranty-covered thing?  Please let it be.  Please let it be.  Please let it be.
Title: Re: Finally!!! I hit the jackpot!!!!
Post by: Ghost65 on August 28, 2014, 09:34:28 PM
Unfortunately doubtful on the warranty coverage...after your mods.  ;D

Toro is the ABS guru...but give your connectors a quick check...also look to see if your rear lines are stretched/caught on anything.

My X threw a VDS/Slip light the other day in traffic...turned it off, restarted, and no lights. 
Title: Re: Finally!!! I hit the jackpot!!!!
Post by: SuperSlideStyle on August 28, 2014, 10:34:54 PM
I don't know if that AAL from 4X4Parts.com that I sold you will work with the PRG AAL.  The rear end may be way too high, your shocks and brake line too short, driveline angle to extreme.

I bought cabin filters on Toro's suggestion before the SCCX Mojave Road last April.  They're still sitting on the counter in my apartment.

And you just got back from doing the Mojave?   I will say one thing, you will be AMAZED what comes out from behind your glove box.   Also take a look at your air cleaner.   UGH!!!!!  If it is an exposed air cleaner like K&N, get the little sleeve (Also a Toro suggestion) that goes over the AC which heads off a lot of the dust before it even gets to the oiled AC
