So I put these new hubs on just to realize they were about 1/4" shorter than the original ones. So then when I got the rotors and tires back on and tried to pull out of the shop only to have the front wheels lock up... so... I decided to put machined washers behind the rotors acting as spacers... my question is.. did they give ne the wrong hubs and if so is there different rotors I can get as to not need spacers? The rotors I have now are warped and needing replaced... any advice would be appreciated! Thanks

It sounds like you got the wrong hub assemblies for your year of XJ. Is yours a 99? That's the year they changed styles midway through.

Check out this thread for more details.

Get those washers out of there and get the correct hubs asap!

x2 i hade the same problem when i had my 99. dont drive until you get the correct hubs, what you have done is dangerous.

always compare new and old parts before installing.

There are 2 different hubs for the 99.. You need to exchange them for the correct ones. Had the same issue with my '99. I ended up dragging parts to Advance to compare every time.
