X might be down for the count :(

[CALDWELL]

Well i bought my next mod...

Bought a Siren Box for my X

It has 5 sirens, with a PA system, and Air Horn lol

 

[zerodevil]

lol, i deffinately want video on thise one, lol.

 

[CALDWELL]

so do I lol

i did finally take the exhaust video...

will upload tomorrow when i get off work...

*** discovered that my camera doesnt record sound for some reason... wtf

 

[zerodevil]

air horn should be pretty darn funny lol.

 

[CALDWELL]

Thinking about running my old set up again...

2.5'' pipe off the Y, to the muffler then run 2.5'' pipe under the rear axle to my current tip at a 45 degree exit...

running under the axle eliminates 2 bends for better flow...


should make the magnaflow sounds really good !

Update...


Birthday today, and i have finally ordered to pieces that i have wanted for my X for awhile now

Black Headlight Housings w/ Corners

Black Upper Billet Grille - Courtesy of ZERODEVIL

I want my front end to look similar to JARVISB's older set up ( non mesh grilles )


Black Lower Billet Grille will be the next item...

 

[BigRondo]

Happy birthday!!!!

 

[Limited02]

Happy belated bday!!! Get some pics of the new setup ASAP!

May 12th was my 5 year with my Explorer and I got her a late present, new tires!!! Next is a new rear diff and get her lowered

 

[CALDWELL]

Absolutley !

I just got done fixing my stupid ebay account, and ordered the Headlights / Corners...

The grille from Jared should be arriving by wednesday to friday hopefully...

I my goal is to mirror JarvisB's Look with billet style black grilles for the front end...

 

[zerodevil]

cant wait to see the pics! Id recommend a fairly mild sand paper, just enough to remove the old paint and not scratch up the alum. A good primer, a couple of solid coats of black, and a couple shoots of clear and you should have a nice durable finnish that shines!! Ill PM you a tracking number in the morning, work has been hectic this week.

 

[CALDWELL]

Just curious ?

Im at work, and im going to clock out from the firehouse in about 30 min @ 6am...

what time is it there ????

 

[zerodevil]

just about 2AM, im about to crash out, im off the next two days so win for me!

 

[CALDWELL]

Update...

Black Headlight Housings are currently installed, and what a difference they make in the overall look of the X during the day time...

Jared, the grille is slowly getting done, i work on it a few minutes at a time, because getting in between each slot is teedious lol...

Im @ work now, but pics to follow tommorrow... off from the firehouse for the next 3 days... WIN !

 

[CALDWELL]

new headlights... they make a major difference i think

 

[zerodevil]

do some 4th gen mirrors man!

 

[Limited02]

Looks great! One of the many mods I hope to do soon What's the next project?

 

[CALDWELL]

Honestly, i have no idea what i want next yet ?

finish exhaust ?

brush gaurd ?

paint rims ?

any suggestions ?

 

[CALDWELL]

finished exhaust finally finished...

2.5'' pipe run under the rear axle w/ magnaflow muffler...

 

[NHarris]

How does that magnaflow muffler sound on your X? That's the exhaust brand I was thinking for my X.

 

[CALDWELL]

I like the magnaflow on my X. it's not as loud as my previous flowmaster 40, but sounds nice. doesnt sound very raspy, and the drone at highway speeds is minimal to nothing. when im on the highway i barely here the exhaust over the general road noise...
