Fix's control arms , s and e modules from getting f'ed up from trees with bad t motion :thumbdown::thumbdown::beer:

from my HTC

Has absolutely nothing to do with tmotion. It braces where the a-arms connect to the chassis to prevent major damage to chassis.

typically in a roll over situation what your going to lose the most of is chaincase oil. and i still to this day dontknow why the chaincase needs a breather?

Same reason your diff does. The oil warms up and expands as does the air in there. Needs to go somewhere rather than past the seals.

makes sense! however the fluid doesnt get very warm. and none of the other models before the xp had breathers so im wondering where the pressure went?

They had a dipstick with a poor seal. Also they used to leak.

If you look at a rev the old dipsticks had a groove in them and a little vent hole. That's why they leaked.
And the chaincase does create heat. Not lots but -20 to +30 is a 50 degree difference and will cause expansion.

I went from my thing cooker can back to the suitecase .. kinda like the peace and quiet .. might even sacrifice hot lunches and keep the suitecase on

not to mention, sled runs much better!

What do u mean the sled runs better buddy??????????? Were you having issues that you were actually able to tell a performance gain when going back to stock?????? Ya I know that the suitcase is perfectly matched to everything else in the sleds exhaust.... But what issues were u having
