I just had an almost-accident today and was wondering about XJ's brake system. Mind you, I am used to my Honda's all 4 disc brake system with ABS. So I was following my friend's 69 Mustang, he was going to run the yellow but decided to stop. So I slammed on my brake and it just immediately locked up, (going 30mph) I came so close to hitting his car. I would have if he hadn't peeled off when he heard me screeching.
Now my brakes are messed up. Warped front rotors and the rear drums need to be adjusted. I realize the car locked up because of these horrible brake condition. BUT how do XJs generally do with braking? I've never had a car with drums so I want to know how well XJs stop. I'm going to have to look into big rotor kits.
Thanks!
