Xoutpost.com - What did you do to / for your E53 today??

Completely understand. The “budget” for my project has come under intense scrutiny from global headquarters recently. Unfortunately I’ve still got a few expensive pieces to buy for the new motor too. Namely a crank pulley, alternator and steering pump. Maybe I’ll get a harmonic damper for Christmas!

Which Engine are you working on? I think I have HB from an m62 in a box somewhere.

I'm building up a 4.6. I'd like to stick with a 4.6 balancer as I think its is an underdrive pulley as compared to the 4.4. I read somewhere it gives about 8 more HP.

Part number is 11237513336

Thanks for checking!

The e53/e83 Sport steering wheel uses the same airbag. 100% interchangeable. Those things are everywhere, especially the non-heated versions.

Yeah definitely from 4.4 but I will will try to track it down. Two xo threads have had to replace while I have a functional one in deep storage somewhere

I got around to taking off the front bumper since the right side was a bit loose and found several more hack jobs....the previous owner of this thing sucked. He installed these ridiculous horns with terrible wiring everywhere. He literally stripped the stock wiring and twisted some new wires together with it and applied electrical tape around them...that's apparently how you splice wires. I removed the stupid horns and installed new OEM ones and repaired the wiring. But the fun didn't stop there. He managed to break nearly everything plastic on the front bumper. Clips, brackets, and the base on every headlight washer. There were also missing bolts. I've got an order in to FCP for all the broken parts before I re-install the bumper. Sigh...

You are super nice to her, BC. Who buys their wife a red X5M here? Nobody.
