Well now the white XJ is having problems. All this started at once pretty much.

1. Pretty sure i'm getting DW above 50.

2. Pulls hard to the right when braking

3. When i stopped and got out to do a quick inspection there was smoke coming out from under the left fender

4. It used about a quarter tank of gas in about 10 minutes of regular driving.

5. Tranny is slipping a lot.


I'm done with this thing. I really am. If it was up to me it'd be at crazy rays or being parted out right away.

Sounds like you have a caliper seizing up.

Yeah but what I don't get is why is the smoke from the opposite side?

And erin. I can get 100 more from crazy rays = D plus like i said its not up to me anyway right now. I technically don't own this Jeep. The Blue XJ is mine and i'm not getting rid of it.

Yeah now i'm in a rush to do the Alternator and hubs on the Blue XJ so I can drive that again. Then its time to save for a car to DD.


I have also decided to sell my fiberglass bulge fenders if anyone is interested. Or know anyone interested in them.

Indon't have a picture on my phone but if you google XJ rustys fiberglass fenders you'll see. Can definitely look badass but i've decided they're not going to go with what I want to do now.
