Default So who makes the shocks for 07 Jags?

I doubt Jag is the actual manufacturer of the shocks used in the XK, but then I'm totally new to Jag ...so I honestly have no clue. Who makes the shocks that came stock on my '07 XK?
Anyone know who they outsourced to? Guessing maybe KYB or Bilstien?

Thanks
V

Hello V

The dampers in the CATS adaptive suspension on the XK's are sourced from Bilstein.

I wonder, does this mean that a Bilstein dealer can source them? They are like $470+ from jag and if they do the work they only do them in pairs. SOAB!

At that price, I would certainly take a few moments to contact Bilstien and ask. (But in truth, that is less than I thought they would be!)
