Morning. Thank goodness for the long weekend. The XJ is not just dripping brake fluid, it's pouring it... out of the rear drum. No line leak it's just coming out of the back of the drum so it's something internal.

I hate drum brakes. Doing a full inspection and service Friday.

That's what I've always planned to do but I'm pressed for time. I need to get the leak fixed before Sunday as I'm traveling for work. My brake pressure is pretty much nonexistent as well as braking power. Thank goodness for a manual and downshifting.

That's what I'm thinking too. Buying parts today. I'm just going to fix it and do the disk conversion later.

Do both wheel cylinders and a set of shoes be good as new. Clean well with brake clean b4 putting on new parts.

Yep, roof top tent at a fraction of the cost direct from the manufacturer.
