going to look at an 09 xtx with 4500 miles on it, what are the number one things i should look for as signs of it being "horse beat" that could bring down the price? thanks guys

Look to see if the shocks are centered in the a arms. Look at the rear of the lower a arm to see if there are any rub marks from the coil over spring rubbing. If there are rub marks subframe might be bent. Take a flashlight with you and shine it over the plate with the large round hole in it if you see it is not completely flat the subframe could be tweaked. It will just appear to be warped if it is bent. The bend in that plate is so slight unless you really take the time to look you wouldn't be able to tell. Take some time and try to move the steering components to check for tightness. Do as much reading on here as u can before u go to look at this sled. I bought a 09 and am reinforcing the subframe this summer.

You can tell if subframe is bent that center plate will be tweeked and you can see it every one i seen are anyways .... check it over just like you would when buying any kind of sled
