Not yet but soon today I will be attacking my rear drum brakes, everything but wheel cylinders.

 

Why not wheel cylinders? There only $12

 

right, i always change them, for how often you get in there

 

Wheel cylinders were changed before I got it but the hardware and everything was done wrong apparently cuz the brakes weren't even touching the drums so I put in all new hardware cables shoes and drums and now I have working rear brakes

 

Took out my cps waiting tell wensday to put my new one in

Drove her to the beach to watch the sunrise over the ocean.

 

Ok so after doing the rear shoes I now have functioning brakes back there even the pedal feels better but alas after all that my handbrake worked for 3 pulls so I gotta see what's up there

 

I'm thinking the auto adjusters. The adjuster is busted on my right side, so it keeps loosening lol.

 

New Headlights!



Before:


After:

 

**** me. I just drove 10 miles to a JY to get a dome light with map lights. I forgot about that POS sunroof, which covers where the map lights WOULD be.

Screw it i'll just put it in the back lol. It was free anyways.

 

Replaced my tranny mount and broke three bolts in the process, one being a mount to trans bolt! With a mig welder, a torch and some wet rags i got it out thank god. In case nobody knows, the 2001 xjs use a specific to that year trans mount that is difficult to acquire! I made a '00 mount work by rotating the crossmember 180 degrees!

 

Who makes those ?

 

Pilot make the housings. Found them on Amazon. They are plactic lenses though so I don't know how well theyll hold up. Price is right though.


Putco makes the harness:

And hella the bulbs
