After using the Strippers to Strip the Wire, I slid on an Insulated Terminal (in this case a joiner) and then used the Adjustment Screw to set the depth of 'Crimp'

The end result was a very pleasing tight round 'Crimp' that does what it says on the tin. and so much better than I got with my 'el Cheapo Crimpers'

This Piece of Hard Rubber looked ideal for the Job and should make her Corner like a Go Kart.

Underneath the Front Wing/Fender, the Shock Absorber Bushes were almost Non Existent.

Just undo the Lock Nuts where you see the Spanner, then Screw the Nut against the Tube to tighten it up.

Providing you can get underneath, replacing the Rear Brake Pads is quite easy.

Instead of using Axle Stands, if I don't need to take the Wheels off I sit the Tyres on either 2 or 4 of these.

Once you've got this Nut undone its almost like Painting by Numbers.

It should have taken 4 Minutes but it took 4 Hours to undo!

As you can see the Top Bush was completely 'Shot Away'

So much easier if you take the Wheel off. The smaller Jack is to lower the suspension and then assist the Shock Absorber back into place.

Everything got in the way of using a Hacksaw to cut through the side of the Shock Absorber Lock Nut

It took all day to get this nut off without damaging the Thread of the Shock Absorber

Even with the Side Cut through the Lock Nut wouldn't come off.

On the left a Jaguar OEM Oil Filter EBC 9658 On the Right a Mann Filter W 930/13 Both are the same size 93mm X 120mm and both fit exactly the same. You can also see my Oil Filter Chain Wrench which will undo most if not all Car Oil Filters

It took a 2ft Long Wrench to get this Oil Filter Undone.

I thought I should carry a few tools just in case I broke down 'is this too much'

That looks a bit more like it and even better when I'd put them in that Storage Box.

Looking better already! but if you drive an XJS a FBH and Fire Extinguisher are not really an option.

These were all the Tools I left behind.

Can you see what I did there? The Tools still took up too much room in the Boot/Trunk (where was I going to sit!)

G.F. said I should carry the Tools in the 'Cubby Box'

Carrying a Fire Extinguisher is simply not an Option after She nearly burst into flames when I had a stuck Caliper on my other Car.

Ah! that looks so much better! Acres of Space in the Boot/Trunk with all the Tools now neatly stowed in the 'Cubby Box' with one or two others stowed in the Fender/Wing 'Cut outs'

A Roll of 'Gaffer Tape' always comes in handy
