If you are unable to get the BG44k then get the second selection Techron. Anything less is a hope!

Look here for an ebay example.
Jaguar XJ6 88 89 90 91 92 93 94 95 96 97 Front Shock Upper Bushing Set MMD2144AA | eBay

Seveal of the online parts guys have them also. I do not believe that any are as sof as the originals, but I do not notice a difference.

Hi
The Ebay listing that Ross (sparkenzap) gave as example - great price on Ebay is for XJ6 1988 thru 1997 - as I said it was only an example).

You can buy Upper Shock Bushing Kit for XJ 1998 thru 2003 (part# MNC2168/69.KIT) at Welsh Enterprises for $45.96 plus $9.90 shipping (to CT probably same to CA - they are in Ohio).

Welsh Enterprises - New Jaguar Parts, Used Jaguar Parts and Accessories - XK120 - XK140 - XK150 - E-Type - MK - XJ6 - XJ8 - XJ - XK8 - XK - XJS - S-Type - X-Type - XF

Others want from $85 to $100 plus shipping for MNC2168/69.KIT.

Hmmmh:
Good point Jim. I would have sworn I have used the same dimension rubber biscuits on both the X-300 and X-308 model. Maybe someone can advise which dimension is different.
