well changed the u joint on the 44 had to take them to get pressed out. cleaned up the spindle and hubs on both sides it locks in alot better was surprised at how easy everything came apart and went together other than the unjoints never had issues pulling them myself till these sets.

Easy... Do you own a BFH? Do you have hand/eye coordination?

You staying in the area you are in or leaving for greener pastures? Or have you found a new project and just getting the XJ out of the way?

I am sitting here waiting for my brother to show up so I can mark out were I am going to cut off the old quarters. I tried doing it myself, but my numb dumb hands can't hold it in place properly

Those are sweet. Good job.
The bushings appear to be solid, this will add stress and restrict axle movement.

..Today I'm doing a coolant flush. Will have to make a tool to fit the block plugs. Socket extension should work, grind down the four sides. But it's hardened steel, might give me trouble..

Yes, yes (literally), no, yes...

My wife and I think we've found "The Place" up near Elgin. We're doing a hobby farm. It has a bigass heated shop. As for the XJ he's currently at my friend's house and I wanted to get it out of his garage as I won't be working on it for a while lol. Maybe he'll finally fix his damn CJ
