NAASTY. Was that $800 all up? What model was it from?
$800 all up.

XJ6 series 3 front and rear. Rear was a 3.07 open spinner. 4 spot calipers (front) are on series 3 xj6 and xjs. I later upgraded to a 3.31 LSD later in the build which I would highly recommend. The open diff was poor advice at the time. There is also debate about which is better to use, 3 or 4 pot calipers regarding brake bias. Better to ask someone in CCCNSW who's used both on their cobra before making a decision. Also buy either end as complete sub assemblies as Jag did use parts between series which will make it harder for it all to work, especially applies to the rear end.
