They should break in, however what is your shackle angle like? I would recommend either shackle sliders or relocation boxes. Your ride quality will improve as well

Alright so my xj is pretty much a project so instead of naming parts cause I need a lot of things so if anyone's got parts they are selling or just giving away message me what you got and how much or if your kind enough to donate. Thanks everyone.

My brakes suck in reverse. They also suck in drive also, and neutral. Sounds like the drums are out of adjustment.

The rear drums should have that star wheel self-adjuster....try pulling your hand break a few times and back up a bit...pull it again, repeat. Or, manually adjust it with a screw driver through the adjustment window on the lower inside of the drum

It was a blast! No snow man though. I almost rolled my rig. And I smashed the muffler pretty good. Talk about back pressure. All in all, I'd say it was awesome.
