Lol. His last post was in Feb 2015 for this topic (Aug 2015 all time last post). My guess is the XJ prbably ripped clean in 2 shortly after and he is working on getting it home. That's probably why he has been gone for almost 2 years.
Just my guess, I could definitely be way off.

I just replaced the rear third or so of my unibody "frame" member. Rotted out at the wheel well. I cut one out of a donor vehicle and spliced it in. Good as new. Well, it's not pretty at all, but it works.
I agree with others. Weld it, plate it, and drive it.
But I would not do any wheeling until it's fixed.

Since VA state inspection are such *****, how do you pass inspection with a repair that's so visible in such a critical area? They give you any grief?

Maybe it should be, but it's not.
