X-Link how many??
you only lock one side. it locked the whole thing out all it works is a pin inside the cylinder that you screw in and it locks into the bit welded to the diff.
works great.
And yes thats the levels, it was extremly hard at one point but its now back to being quite easy to do again.
but there is a few spots that you can play on including the ditch at the top

You may find it's the springs that are to stiff causing the problems.milla1122 wrote:hey ppl i currently have a superflex arm fitted with drop boxes,
but find you need a fair bit of weight on it too make it flex is this the same for the x link.
would it flex alot easier as im thinking of swapping to x link
Cheers Mick.
Rear suspension design is far less resistant to roll/flex than the radius arm front.milla1122 wrote:i have superflexy dobbinsons all around so its not that. My pic on the left has the superflex arm with the superflexy coils all round and the back wheel is about to leave the ground and the front is not even tucking into the guard

actually running properly matched spring rates front/rear will help not only with flex but the all-round driveability if the truck. Have found going from 240/lb/in rears to 350lb/in rears not only made the rig better at high speed but heaps better at flexy crawling stuff. Nissan rears springs are very close together on the rear diff so its almost impossible to have one with crap flex in the rear.....

I know it sounds weird but, more often then not suspension suppliers don't have a clue as to how real rigs go! when is the last time you have heard a suspension shop ask you about anti-pitch?? yet 99% of us nissan owners have felt it oh so often, when scooting down the road and over a series of bumps the arse end want to skip and buck and try and overtake.milla1122 wrote:i have great flex in the back so you saying put harder springs in the back to put more pressure on the front when flexing ???? thats what i was thinkin cause the back flexes driving over a speed hump

If you need heavy duty rear springs can you run soft spings in the front or are medium duty a better option?1MadEngineer wrote: bingo!

Question, with an X link pivoting in the centre. Forcing one arm down as the opposit comes up. Dose the arm travelling upward get forced into the diff housing??
This pic shows how much more the arms have moved down without the lockout pin. Is the same upward? Not much room on drivers side for the arm to move upward.
For example, where the radius arm mount has been removed to fit X link, what stops the arm from pushing into the diff housing on max flex? Its no longer at a fixed point, nothing in the way for it to travel down but what about going up?
