First of all, i'd like to thank Tung for taking all these. This guy got down an dirty (both behind the lense and literally on the ground!) for me. Check out his stuff @ http://www.tungtle.com great work! I also went and put led's in my driving lights, liscense light and dome lights. I also got an injen engine cover, ARC oil cap and a tein hood damper. Got an ARC radiator cap coming soon. let me know what you think.

Ya, very sweet ride. once you get aiR and slam it, that'll set it off. One of the few nicest XA's I've seen.

Like I said before air, spacers (after the air you'll need them), and fogs and you're set.

I sure did...and you will if you want the fitment to look good when it's dumped.

Fitment is fine now because it's sitting up high. You'd need to add positive camber to make the fitment work right with air down low. You're missing the point here.

Our suspensions dont change with right height though. You should be fine Blimon from what I see so far. Maybe 5mm spacers, but maybe not even that. Keep up the good work.

I wasn't aware that the xA and xB had front and rear solid axles? That's the only way what you're saying would be true. I thought they were independent front and torsion beam rear? With all corn aside here I'm curious where you came up with that assumption (I'm not trying to argue with you, I just don't understand what you're saying here.).

Sure looks like a good amount of rear camber there:

It is a rear torsion beam suspension. Due to the geometry of it though and the hubs located at the ends, the only way to achieve camber is through shims that are placed between the beam and outter hub. The Fabulous xA is likely running -5 garsons or anceltions. Ive been lowered 3.5" for quite a well, and as low as 4" at times, with no camber change. Kinda sucks, but thats the way it goes. Stock is slightly less than 1 degree of negative camber. Im not a suspension guru, but thats just what Ive experienced with mine and all the others. No matter how low you go, it wont change.

So I take it that's true for only the rear since the front is independent?

No actually. The front doesnt camber out either. Like I said, Im not a suspension guru but no one Ive known has gotten camber from lowering. Ive been layed out and it not changed a bit. Had my alignment done a couple times (after changing suspensions) and always been less than the -1 spec of stock. Guess Ive never just thought about it but yea, never changes.

if you run the easy street front air bags then you will get positive camber. you need the camber plates to use it.

That ARC oil cap is heavy duty and nice........ I have had one for a couple of yrs now but I was shocked at the price when I 1st got mine.

looks good. wil air it will be even nicer. but (isnt there always one on this forum!) you really need to get the fogs for that kit to fill those holes.
