bump stops were on the wagons only here, and that adjustable strut matches what had been installed on my xt6 by the po. The back sat up pretty high until I put 4wd struts from an rx on the rear, sits nice now. Btw, my wagons rear struts are identical to my rx's struts too. As far as the adjustable i...

The core is 76 mm taller than the stock rad so I cut the lower support corners and bolted 1/8" steel brackets to the lower support. I had to cut the return of the upper support to stand the rad up p...
