Modern & classic thoroughbred Jaguars

It has become apparent to Racing Green Cars that one of the bushes on the rear wishbone of the above vehicles is now a regular MOT failure due to wear. This bush is not available from Jaguar and normally warrants replacement of the entire wishbone assembly at significant cost. Racing Green has developed a bush specifically for this application as there is rarely any problem associated with the wishbone itself. The bush is not the simple plain rubber type of bush but the much more sophisticated "ball joint" type with dust seals at each end. These bushes are now becoming MOT failure points and there has been no other way of replacing these bushes other than to buy a new complete wishbone from Jaguar. There are 2 required per wishbone. Jaguar part numbers for the rear wishbone include C2P14467 & C2P14468 for the XK. Part numbers on the XJ change at a chassis number, up to G41511, rear wishbone numbers are C2C21162 & C2C21164. After chassis number G41511 the wishbones are C2C36791 & C2C36792. There is no Jaguar part number for this rear wishbone bush and the Racing Green bush will fit all these applications.
