Removing the IRS and I am stumped. According to the Complete Official Jaguar "E" Bentley Manual:

"Remove the split pin, washer and clevis pin securing the handbrake cable to the handbrake caliper actuating levers mounted on the suspension cross beam"

I see many split pins back there. What are they talking about? does anyone have any pictures from when they have done this in the past?

Then:
"Slacken the locknut and screw the outer handbrake cable screw out of the adjuster block"

Again, what are they talking about? Pictures/diagrams?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

The handbrake cable inner fixes onto the handbake compensator assemble mounted on the subframe. So you detach it from that leaving the compensator and the calipers fixed to the subframe.

This supplier has the drawings and can also supply most of the parts. You'll probably need a few bits if you're overhauling the rear subframe assembly.

Thanks.

Got it figured out.

So here is what I think I need:

-New shocks
-New springs
-new bushings (Is brass from Classic Jag the best/longest lasting?)
-New rotors
-new calipers
-new pads
-new lines with the bleeders
-How do I know if the u-joints and differential are OK? (Car has 132K miles on it)

What am I missing?
