Replacing all:

Shock mounts
Rear spring bushing
upper ball joints
lower ball joints

Is there anything else i should replace? doing all at once taking it to my mechanic. he said he will do it around $300

 

Rear end, check the pivot pin bearings, and the shaft u-joints. Cheap insurance. Also the upper donuts and associated parts for the rear. Don't need to do those more often than you need to.

 

I'm with Charlzo, do the pivot bearings at the back and check the gap with a feeler gauge, you can get oversized spacers to take up the slack from Jaguar Classic Parts, well worth doing as the correct spacer takes all the play when checking for movement at 9 and 3. Don't forget to 'pop-mark' where the bolt is against the hub before you remove the bolt, on some it's a concentric bolt that alters the camber angle (well it does on mine!). Also, if you change the U/J's make sure you don't do the daft mistake I made and have the grease nipples facing the wrong way, sorry, I'm a thicko lol

The pivot bolt should be the same for all X308's as there is only one part number, i.e. all X308's should have this bolt with an eccentric flange at its head. Placing the flange at different orientations will alter the rear wheel toe-in, not the camber. The camber is adjusted by changing the thickness of the spacer at the diff output flange. The spacer comes in 9 different thicknesses.

 

Sorry, my mistake, I knew what I meant and typed something totally different.

Yes $300 is a great price, he is a very good mechanic. Can I get some part numbers?
