Yikes! I will check our sources and get right with the pricing. Thanks for the heads up. It's that kind of feed back that lets us know when we are upside down in the market place. Yes, those are the springs you need. The sagging springs may have worn your shocks out again. If they are Boge or KYB, they should have a lifetime warranty.

nice nice very nice. Thanks a lot Ken! I just put my Jag back on the road today (about a month earlier than normal) becuase I definitely want to get the springs done as well ass the overheating issue with that fan clutch we talked about. If all that is done b4 the end of April I'll be a happy camper then i can sell it in perfect condition to get a less mileage XJ40 or maybe just keep mine for one more summer! I dont know yet too many decisions!

Well I ended up ordering the fan clutch this morning so hopefully that will cure my slight overheating problem. However, I didnt order the set of rear springs because they're apperently not the right springs if you still have that self leveling system?? When I ordered the part this morning from Welsh Jaguar he said I didnt have any real choice but to go with that complete conversion kit that you also mentioned Ken...which I def dont have the money for right now.

It's weird because their spring set is $100 cheaper than yours but their conversion kit is more than yours. lol. Anyways I'm going to hold off on the rear suspension for now since it's not like the car is bobbing around back there, it has just bugged me for a while since the back sits slightly lower than front. After I get the overheating thing fixed shes going back up for sale and I'll let the next owner fix the suspension!
