My driver's side suspension started clunking badly today, about 3 miles into a drive. Here's what I found. Thanks for the post, I may have to contact Wayne. Assuming I can get original replacements or Wayne's pieces, is this a repair I could do myself, or should I use my trusted Jaguar shop? Thanks!

Seeing those pics, two things immediately come to mind.
(1) if Wayne can't help PM me, l can help.
(2) Find a new trusted jaguar shop. That did not happen in the last 3 miles.
it's not a bad DIY - plan on upper shock mounts, bump stops (can use Moog part number K90460 - just use bump stop with your existing bellows), I would also look at bushings and ball joints to see if they need replacing get it all done at once (lower ball joints are a PITA but can be done DIY without replacing the entire assembly), then take it to get an alignment. Too bad you don't live nearby - we could knock that out in an afternoon
Thanks for the replies and info Steve and Wayne! I had the bushings replaced about 2 years ago. Everything else was checked over by a Jag mechanic and checked out okay.
