Default 2003 XK8 Rear Subframe

Hello All,

My first post on behalf of a close friend who is quite old and is not fully up with the internet so i am helping out, he has a 2003 XK8 and the last MOT it failed because the rear subframe is rusted away basically, he wants to get it fixed and running again. Now for about 3 months we had a jaguar parts company in Bolton who was getting a refurbished one but they have taken too long now and its just not happening so i thought i would try my luck on here, does anyone have one or point me in the right direction of getting one that would be perfect.

Thanks in advance.
Andrew

You will get most rear subframe parts from Ebay, including the rear A frame that is poss the part you need..

This may help... Before anything take it to a shop and have them install new bushings into the unit...

Welcome to the forums Andrew,

Try my local specialist Jaguar breaker - Eurojag in Darlington. Not too far from you in Manchester if you prefer to collect.

It was a few years ago but I've had two refurbished 'A' Frames from them.
