what is a X-frame kit an what does it do cheers

[flyingbanana]

a X frame kit is bars that clamp on to the axle at each end behind the wheel.....then it splits off and bolts on to the leaf springs on each side of the wheel...ie before the wheel and after.........its to stop sideways movement in the leaf springs and keep the axle central

cheers mate would you recomend 1

ive fitted one to my capri it clamps on to the axle either side of the diff then the rods/bars come out at an angle and connect to the leaf springs

it stops the axle moving side to side when going through bends and corners. simple idea but very effective , tightens the rear end up 10 fold m8, wish id got one earlier

do you have to use single leafs or can you use multi leafs with this kit?

i cant see a problem using it on mutli leafs......its only 4 metal plates per side that go above and below the leaf's then you clamp them together with nuts and bolts ....the only problem you may have is if the clamp that holds the multi leafs together gets in the way

ive got multi on mine and have had no probs at all
