never understand why Xray designed their steering base off AE instead of CRC which is far superior
All of the front ends are based off of AE. The CRC is just a pivot ball version. With the long arm up top, it just moves the upper hing point back to where AE has it. The AE front end really set a standard and the current front ends are refined versions. The SM is a nice revision of the AE front end that was used prior to the strut. So, in a nut shell, X Ray didnt do anything out of the norm.
