X over steering using a IFS steering box means that you run the drag link from the drivers side over to the passengers side. Instead of along the drivers side.
Its heaps better for articulation and also means that you can throw away the diff locator rod.
There are a couple of ways to do it... 1 way is to use high steer arms which would put the tierod above the leave or you can use a 'flip' arm setup which leaves the tierod below the leaves.
Where the f#@k did that come from
