New to the forum!

Hey everyone, a few months ago I picked up a silver 2002 X5 4.4 V8. It was in an accident when we purchased it and has been in the rebuild state since the end of January. We are about 90% complete with the vehicle. I will be placing up pics with the finished product soon, hopefully! As I post this we are wiring up the headlights and making sure everything is working properly. I have a few questions about a few things, but I rather do some research and figure out where to post them before I do, so I don't upset anyone with posting in the wrong place. I can't wait to see this on the road in the future! I will deffinately be using this forum a lot in the future! Hope to hear from members soon!

Oh anyone in the the Fort Wayne, Indiana area let me know! Would be cool to hear from possible members within the area. Again sorry if I posted this in the wrong area of the forum!

Thanks for the welcome! The restore is going well!! Just having an issue with the Steering wheel wanting to spin all the way around. As well as figuring out what hose goes into the liquid cooled alternator's back side on the actual timing chain cover. Anyone know where I should look for those answers? Oh and the pictures will be up for people to see within in a week or earlier. I will have before and after pics. I made sure to track my progress with alot of photos.
