how do i replace the sway bar bushings on a 2000 jaguar s type v6? i have alot of clunks and sounds from the rear suspension and some in the front. ive replaced the sway bar links all around,tie rods all around,new struts in the front but the back ones are still good for now,i know i have to replace the control bushings soon and the subframe ones too but i need to change the sway bar bushings first asap. Any help is always greatly appreciated, especially from Brutal. Thank you gentleman and have a good day.

no squeaking or cracking, just alot of clunks and thumps. it just sounds like somethings loose or i have some very worn bushiings. im hoping somewhere can give me some insight.

OK. Rule #1 . . . Go to Stickies or Gus' JagRepair.com or get a low cost DVD of full workshop manual for your model+year . . . read relevant section which shows the whole deal, then ask any questions that have you stumped. The R&R of front ARB is a simple process for DIY . . . but, having this bible by your side is really mandatory.

yes its still on the road and it still runs good but i can hear it and feel it in the suspension when go over bumps and holes. im tryna fix it before it gets worse

Front sway bar mount bushings require the heater tap to be removed FIRST.
The air box, aircleaner to some, lower section must be removed. LH is a snap, and pushing the lower radiator hose CAREFULLY to one side is not the end of the world. The RH will test your language, and ability to bleed. I have done both ours twice now, and the first time I refused to accept the heater tap section, and 6 hours later the bolt, YES, ONE DAMN BOLT, was out, but there is NO way of refitting it with the tap in the way. Cross threading those 4 bolts is easy, o take care, been there. I replaced both taps the first time, as the heaters were a tad iffy. The Black car is coming up for them again, awesome roads we have here, and will be done sometime in 2018, with a new heater tap also. Rear end,NO idea, it does what it does, and no noises so far. |
Check the bushing at the bottom of the shocks for movement.
