Stock XJ rear axles are 60" WMS-to-WMS so that's been pulled from something else.

It's not that bad. Its on there tight though. Some people have the T-60 bolt and others say they dont. I bought a T-60 socket that had a 6 sided place for a wrench. 12mm wrench and a cheater bar took it lose. Then i used a gearwrench and took the bolt out. Replace o ring. Use o ring sealant to hold it in place and lube ring with a little bit of oil then replace.

Uh oh... Ideas? This is the only rusted part on the rockers. Don't wanna replace the whole thing. Don't have money to get sliders in. Can I grind it all away and put a small piece of metal there?
