Mattyv 1 Posted April 3, 2018 Hi Guys, I am about to start transplanting the entire front end including cross member, suspension and steering from an Au/Ba into my Xe. I was sent here by another member saying it had been done and posted by a member on here before. I have searchedusing the search function and also a physical search of the suspension pages. Does anyone have any info on such an exercise or know where this thread might be? thanks heaps guys. Sorry my first post was a question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valvebouncer 2,389 Posted April 3, 2018 I can’t recall it being done in this forum. I do remember a thread on another forum ( either Australian ford forum or xfalcon) where they guy was fitting a ba front end and boss motor into a purple xe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

deankxf 20,231 Posted April 4, 2018 you'll have to get an app for your browser to see the photobucket pics, google photobucket fix addon for whatever you use(chrome or firefox etc) His wife got sick at some point and the project stalled but it was pretty much finished, just not to a high standard he wanted.. i haven't checked on it or him in ages, but here's the thread on xfalcon.. there is a heap of photos of how he did it. http://www.xfalcon.com/forums/index.php?/topic/25812-ba-au-upgraded-xe-the-boss/ 1 Valvebouncer reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hendrixhc 10,918 Posted April 4, 2018 Yeah hasnt really been any progress on Xderm from what i herd last from Glenn ( XM221). I believe it was covered over and left. Shane did buy a Chestnut XE ESP and last i saw on ESPghia ages ago he was focused on that. That was a few years ago now though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I heard it got umm, dealt to by a disgruntled associate of Shane's and will probably never see daylight again. Such a shame given the amount of work put into it.
