Default tie rod ends & sway bar end links

2003 S Type 4.2L

Can anyone advise a vendor to source from tie rod ends and rear sway bar end links for this car?

We tried searching Advance and nothing comes up in their search engine.

Also, would it be OK to assume that the standard tools I use to change these pieces on another vehicle would suffice? Or, better put, is there any unique tools I may need to swap them out?

Thanks

There are several good Internet vendors such as AutohausAZ, Motorcars LTD, Nalley Jaguar and others. There are no special tools that are needed to replace the anti-roll bar (sway bar) end links or isolators (bushings).

Have you inspected the front upper and lower ball joints and tie-rod end links as they are weak points on these vehicles?

Gents thank you. Actually the dealership took us to the bank on the ball joints. Will check these vendors on our parts. And the link too. Much appreciated.

Morrison, I've found Coventry West (Atlanta, GA.) having excellent service and the lowest prices on both new and used Jag parts. Give them a call, you won't be disappointed.

Nalley Jaguar also in Atlanta, they are forum sponsers and give us jaguarforum members a 15% discount when mentioned, also free shipping with orders over $75.00. Great guys to deal with!

Motor Cars Ltd had the best prices when I replaced Joyces.
