X wishbone bushes

[Davide]

I have a 2006 XJ soveriegn, and it has a vibration from the rear end, I am told it needs new wishbones as the bushes are worn but jaguar dealers won't replace the bushes just the whole wishbones at not an inexpensive price. Has anyone done this job? Are there bushes out there? Surely if they put them in the wishbones they can be replaced. Any advice welcomed.

Hi David

Yes the bushes are out there

think the xj are similar to the s-type, if there alloy arms, there all available

you can get them all on eBay, single or in sets for the whole arm

it depends on your garage, most garages just want to swap the arm, easy job, the bushes have to be pressed out and in, so it depends on which garage you go

cheers
