Default x6 to x6 cube,

I currently run b4.1 with a load of spare parts.

I also have a x6, not sure if it's the 3 or 4, gear.
Plus another one which is for spare parts on.

Would I just need part no XFK031, to convert to a cubed, or is it not that simple..

Thanks

It all depends on whether your original X - 6 was updated to 4-Gear. If so, the K 031 will have almost all of what you need, and you'll wind up with a spare nose piece, which is good. If my original X - 6 were 3-gear, I'd probably get the K 030 and convert my B4.

Looks like it's the 4 gear box, which side of the car is the spur gear on?

also before you buy check your hinge pins are not bent. worth changing at same time if they are. Yes the diff is countered to make it 4 gear.

Hi Critch, the hinge pins are an X-Factory part, the standard ones are titanium, sold in singles, part number XF6141 (£3.29) or you do also now have the option of the tougher hardened steel versions, these are part number XF6143 and are sold in pairs for £7.59.

As confirmed by several others already, your car is 100% the 4 gear version and the XFK031 Upgrade kit will be ideal for this car to turn it into the X6 Cubed.

Regards, Darren
