It's just a complete front end rebuild kit for the pre facelifted cars....

Take care,

Someone came online here once a few weeks back to say that he had purchased a kit from them only to have the pieces break after very little wear.....I don`t know if was true but I would take care.....

Hard to believe that an aftermarket company would be making the A-Arms? They are over 600 bucks each from Jaguar! I could see just bushings for that price but the claim of new A-Arms makes me sceptical.

A lot of companies make the arms... The older 00-02 (in USA model years), arms don't have replaceable bushings like the newer ones do.

The bushings for the newer suspension are like 14 bucks a side:

Well the arms are from Lemforder, which is a good solid company.

Once again I learned something. I had looked for aftermarket crash parts and found virually nothing. So that is why I made my incorrect assumption.

Yeah they sell bushing and the ball joint (which usually tears before the bushings wear out) Is fixed non replaceable.

That's junk to me
