Bushings and shocks
#1
![Default](/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
Good day everyone,
I have reviewed posts under this title, but didn't quite get the answer I need.
I have a '96 VDP that needs front bushings and shocks. My usual mechanic found the parts quickly, but I wasn't prepared to make that repair yet.
Now I ready to move on it and that mechanic is now AWOL, and my new mechanic can't find the parts.
Is it really that hard to find them? Where should I look? Would prefer not using the pricey original equip or I would just take it to the Jag dealership - which I really can no longer afford.
I thank you in advance for your help.

The fronts have 2 bushings , top and bottom
Sometimes a shock will have the top bushing so you will have to check
