I just sold a 1962 XKE Roadster with orginal rear brake pads in car thats 48 years of wear so if you think 2 years is normal wear for jag rears your way off. It sounds like a two fold problem limited pedal or piston travel or rotors too thin for application, over hard pads will glaze and do nothing for you.You shouldnt run race pads on the street its a bad combo. Jack car up see if you can turn rear wheels with brake applied hard if not remove wheels and start looking for the cause of restriction your 2 pound pressure valve may be too low to keep pistons close to rotors so when you apply pressure you run out of pedal travel before piston travels far enough.Did you bleed lines again?
Good Luck L Spillman
