The one dated 8/98 appears to be the current manual.  At least, it has the address of MFJ on it and they acquired Cushcraft in 2009.

MFJ is not noted for keeping their manuals up to date.  At the very least, I don't know how you can make a change (address) to a manual and not update the date.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Cushcraft X7 manual

My club has a Cushcraft X7 antenna. This antenna has bought new in 2004. 
Unfortunately the original manual has lost. We need to resassemble the antenna and we are not sure how is better to do it. I have found 2 manuals in web dated like 12/97 and 08/98. The differences with the version of our antenna is this:
the length of the tube ES in 7th element in our antenna is 32" (81cm) while in both manuals i have, is 36".
Anyone who bought his antenna in similar date with us and has the manual, can send me a scanned copy pse? Beside this when we have assembled the ant for the first time and put it abt 18m high (53 ft) the swr was bad (something like 2:1 if i rememebr well). How good is the swr in your X7? 
What are the dimensions you followed?
