Where to buy suspension arm bushings
I am going to replace the bushings in the lower control arms. Where is everyone getting just the bushing from? I have a machine shop that can press them in for me. Either that or a reasonable priced complete lower control arm would work if available. Not spending $900 for one from Jag!

I have used this place numerous times as they are local to me, they ship worldwide as well.
The owner is Anthony and is very helpful.
He does Lemforder suspension parts and they are sensible prices and also the original brand used by Jaguar.
They also do a " pattern" part at a lesser price as well.
Have a look at the website and maybe email or call them for costs including shipping to you.

There are threads, right here on the forum, as to what 'the real' source and quality seem to be based off what many other members have encountered and researched already.
Not hard to find OEM "Lemforder" goods at decent prices.
Decent "enough" there's merit in buying 'complete' .. as-in installation-ready, with bushes already installed.
Not enough further saving that I saw any point in pressing old out, then new, in.
Keep in mind that BOTH need to be done, and the arms are not the easiest goods to set-up on a press, so 'some' risk of damage will exist, EACH go.
Worth avoiding the need and risk ... even though I don't have to leave my own shop to do either/both operations.

Knowit, since you are located in US (?yes?) try these suppliers;
https://parts.harperjaguar.com/
https://www.fcpeuro.com/
https://www.autohausaz.com/
https://www.britishparts.co.uk/
https://www.rockauto.com/
I attached a cut-n-paste PDF from SNG Barrett that lists all the suspension components to aid you in looking for right component - there are some variations on bushings depending on year and model.
