just fitted x link to my 80

[mud4b]

as asked before, what do you do with castor correction?

i just got another 80 sahara td and want one of these, thinking of going a 5" lift or a 4" lift with body lift..

but how does the castor work? obviously not castor plates?

i guess cranky accounted for it in his arm flip? but im not sure if i could be stuffed doing this.

also will it fit the sahara front diff with a factory locker as i know the housing is slightly different?

cheers mark..

Mark, from what i read in the 4WD Monthly write up... you unbolt the front radius arm bolts, remove the front part of the radius arm bracket, get the X-Link in position, fix up your caster with an anglo-meter etc... meanwhlie while your rotating the diff, the X-Link bracket moves into the location that will when welded on, provide your castor correction, and then making sure everything is ok.. you burn it on...

That is the general idea i got... Chad/Glenn may have something more technical for you...

Kinda the same as a castor plate etc, just allows you to rotate the front of the diff upwards.

thanks bud, i think i might just cut the knuckles, that way the link arms should not change position and coming closer to the tie rod..
