Default Alignment what a difference

After oil change, new battery, I headed to the best suspension guy in Saint John, N.B. Seem to be in good shape up front, even bushing seem to be in good shape, alignment was way out on passenger side, he suspects a poor previous alignment. Jag handles superb, am still driving it daily now since July 5 when she crossed the border. Not that I was expecting, but I get lots of questions and compliments on the car. Hoping to have new tires by fall.

Glad to here you car is running great.... and looks good..

Last week when my daughter and i were doing the oil change on the 1997 XJ6..
We noticed the outer tie rod bushes were worn looking and after close inspection the front sway links were a little rot and appeared to be pushing out the top.....

Anyway.... a 100$ for parts and 1 hr of labor under the car ramps.....
we took her for an alignment.... and she handles even better than before...

I got a whole list of cheap and easy repairs/ tinkering for the jags..... good luck.... message me if you want some help or thoughts if i an help...
