It's called broke...LOL... So now you get to find the cause..Something is binding up for it to do that....EDIT: OK I see it now.. You've unbolted the bracket and fubared it good... Time for a boneyard run to get a new one...

As it would appear to make the XJ undrivable, bit surprised OP asks if it needs fixing
