Default XK8/XKR, DB7 Parts Interchangability?

I just took my XKR in for a complete suspension redo as the bushings have deteriorated over the last 13 years and she needed some attention. It occurs to me that since both the X100 and the DB7 use the XJS chassis that there may be some suspension parts that are interchangeable. Does anyone know if this is possible and if there would be an advantage to using the Aston suspension parts if possible?

Not sure about compatibility, but one clear advantage of using Aston parts is that your wallet will be much lighter when you're finished.

ROFL@ Coupe.

The money removed from your wallet should lighten the overall road weight at least 1-2 oz.
