Rear brakes freshened up. Shoes had glazed up and would groan/squeal and hardly stop when wet. Then remembered one side had no adjuster hardware because of a broken cable last time. So a quick trip back to AA for hardware and now its all new (except cylinders, in great condition).
Btw everytime I do drums, in my head its a piece of cake, then get into them and it all comes back how much a pita they are. LoL. I really gotta do disk brakes.

Replaced my waterpump, thermostat housing, thermostat, and serpentine belt today. The weephole was just beginning to leak when warm. I put in a flowkooler pump, hesco hi-flow housing, and a hi-flow thermostat. It's sitting for 24 hours to fully cure before I add fluids and start it up. I will have to report back on the effectiveness of the hi-flow components since I haven't driven it yet.

No, I don't lick fish.
^^^This
I'd go with that one. Looks great.
Take it back to the shop that rebuilt it for warranty repair? That's what I would do.
I have salt in the air. Does that count?
This picture is actually not that bad compared to what it looks like now. #because

LoL I hope this one never gets that bad. My first XJ was a rust bucket but I under estimated the corrosiveness of magnesium chloride. I see Monstaliner in the near future.

I wash that stuff off repeatedly every winter! What a PITA. Keeps the deer off the roads, I suppose.
