The one thing I love about my xj is that there's always something that needs done. HA!!
Today I tackled the driver side brake pad sliders on the knuckle. While looking over my hub I noticed the common groves in the railing. The repair wasn't that bad to do. With a sanding disc, welder and torch. It was a simple 1/2 hr job.

Top and bottom before.





Prep for welding.





Preheated and welded.





Nice and pretty.....





After this quick fix I decided to rebuild the caliper. Turns out the o-ring was twisted inside..

Now my brakes seem to operate smoothly for now..

Sry.. Build was put on hold for a little while, but after driving up to camp yesterday, the gears are starting to turn.

I've decided that my front bumper ms approach angle is not to my satisfaction. So I've started with the design. I'm going to cut the angle and mount my winch on top. I'll go more in depth when I start the mod.

This gives you a idea on what to look for.

The black line will be the cut line.
