Default Rebuilding rear suspension, fulcrum shaft

Hi all,

I've decided on rebuiling the rear wishbones, i'm noticing some forward-backward movement of the wheel.
Does anyone know the part number for the bushes around the "rear lower" fulcrum shaft, connecting the lower wishbone to the differential. (some suggest CDC2301)

All this after having found out why my cat decided to pauze for the weekend, due to an inertia switch being tripped. (thanks for helping me out on that one)

You can find part numbers at SNG Barratt UK | Find Parts. Select your jag and find the relevant parts diagram.

Verify your serial number against the header

CBC2301 looks to be for the front suspension


See item X

To get the long fulcrum bolt out jack the car and let the suspension free hang with wheels removed

This allows just enough clearance for the head of the bolt to clear the trunk floor pan as it goes aft

I wouldn't recommend using a drift to punch out the bolt on the threaded tail

What worked for me was a impact gun on the read head and the bolt walked out

17 or 19 mm , I have some spare fulcrum bolts to check later

You can use a open end wrench to aid in the rotating fulcrum bolt migration

Putting back together is a different matter of not hanging up and catching on the edge damaging the bushings

Maybe a bullet can be fabricated
