No, they're not the same. I forget exactly what but someone here will chime in for me. I think one is the diff's, another is the spur gear, and 2 other things I can't remember.

i think the breaks and the engines are the only diff between the x ss and the x 4.6...oh tires are diff. also...and the exhaust...that maybe it. i still think the xss is the badest savage.
