Hi James - you might take a look at Snow White and their Jag IRS crossmember kit.   I'm putting an XSJ rear-end with inboard brakes on my 46 Olds 600.

Ralphy --   My prayers to you and your family.  I certainly hope, as Jim said, this is not anything serious!

Hi guys -

What kind of wire is supposed to be used for keepers on the Salisbury differential?   Is there a tool used to fight it around on the calipers?

Thanks
Glen

Hi Guys -

I've been lurking for quite a while and you all do incredible work and this site is an amazing source of knowledge!

It's finally time for me to start my latest project -- an '82 Jag IRS slid under a 46 Olds 600 coupe.   This is my first work rebuilding a Jag IRS -- most of my past has been on older Datsun Z cars -- much simpler systems.

I pulled an '82 IRS (inboard brakes) out of a wrecked XJS -- didn't check the miles on the car, probably should have.  Anyway -- what all do I need to rebuild and where is the best place to source parts?    Yeah, I know that's a real vague question - I'm looking for good starting points.

I'll be pulling it apart from the carrier next week and wanted to get some of the parts on order.

As I get closer to finishing the rebuild, I'll be on the next decision -- how to mount it.   Either mount carrier and all (yeah, I've been reading on the mounting flex in another thread) or go to someone like Snow White for a different mounting solution.  

First things first... can you guys help me with the rebuld?

Thanks!
Glen

I've got an old Lincoln stick welder too -- used it a bit on some big stuff.  Then got a 110V Lincoln wire-feed.  WOW, no comparison.   Now I need to invest the time to get proficient at it.   The tool is well beyond my capabilities (for now anyway ;)  )
