That is very easy to type on a forum 6+ years AFTER X-Factory released the X5.....
Trust me, X-Factory DID think about the X5 long and hard when it was concieved, which is why it transformed many an aged XX4 or abondoned XXX4 into a car that kept going for another 6 seasons.
The weight on the X5 was all centered as close to perfect in the middle as was possible at the time with NIMH's and all was enclosed in an almost fully sealed tranmission too.....
It is not the motor at the front of the car that pulls the nose up it is the inertia of how/the direction in which it is spinning and who is certain that a 1 belt transmission is the way forward ;-)
