I have a Beta swapped X3 that I'm going to Install a AIRRAM in a few weeks/months. In the swap a use the three OEM tranny mounts.



Have the people that have this have any clearance problems?

 

You will definitely loose the strut tower brace you have now. You can get one that will "work" if you "work" it over a bit. Its the cheapy ones off ebay. Not the best option, but IMO, better than NO strut bar up front. Other than that, looks like it should fit! :biggrin: But thats just me talkin out my ass! Get it in there and find out mang!

 

I think I can use that one if a make new "mounts" (the part were you put the three nuts on). If a do that I would also make the mounts for a damper!



What haves me worried is the clearance with the fire wall...

 

Nope wont work!!!!!!!! So i guess you have to sell me the Air Ram, ill give you 300 bucks for it!!!!

 

What won't work?

 

I was just kidding, but the only issue I can see is possibly being to tight with stock motor mounts as there kinda soft so it might smash the firewall when shifting that is all i see being an issue.... Should fit fine....



But if you dont really want it, PM how much you would take for it... I am interested!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

People here in the Island call me at lest once a mouth making offers. People that I don't even know!!!



That I know of there are only two AIRRAMs in Puerto Rico.

 

the air ram will work

strut bar won't work unless you make new mounts so the bar sits in front of the intake manifold

or even better make a tubular steel strut bar,thinner and stiffer

 

Did you use the OEM tranny mounts in your swap?

 

yup, OEM transmission mounts, custom engine (passenger) side mount



you won't have problem
