Default x150 rear lower wishbone bushes

Hi everyone
Advisory on last service there was play in one lower wishbone bush (before my ownership).
Are there any OEM bushes available, or is it whole wishbone only as per the early days of the model?
Any decent aftermarket options that are not too firm (?Berkshire jag)?
I plan to replace both sides not just the side with play.
thanks in advance

I changed my upper rear wishbones to powerflex, you need a press to push the old ones out. The lower rear wishbones are very difficult to hold successfully in the press without making up some sort of jig. I found it was easier to completely replace the lower wishbone assembly as the saving is not worth the agro.

They are available from https://www.britishparts.co.uk/jagua...50-xk-xkr-c108

Have Fun

I think so,
they are not badged Jaguar. Came in a clear plastic bag with a British parts UK sticker and Jaguar part number. Listed as OEM quality very good price not worth the grief of trying to push the old bushes out.

Yes, the correct part is made by Lemforder and isn't branded jaguar regardless of source I am led to believe. Berkshire jag have the OEM Lemforder ones for 156 but this price is even better, i agree not worth pushing the bush out at that price.
