As far as I knew the X series fun a steering box, not a rack system, If its a box, NO the rack wont fit,

The X series does have a box that's Power Steering, so you can convert it, you need a box and Pitman arm, and the Pump and lines, You can still get the box as a new item, ( reco ) you may have to pay a core deposit for the different steering box, all hose are available through Repco or Bursons, as for the Pitman Arm

also, XF has imperial threads.
So installing an XF power box on any e-series engine your wanting to install will require a custom pressure line to be made. otherwise an XG power steering box will again solve this.
