Default Suspension Parts

Looking for recommendations for the best place to buy the parts when needed (Control arms and shocks). Is PartsGeek somewhere reliable? I saw shocks on ebay, but the price was so low it scares me - like $200 for a pair of rears. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

This site has quite a few good sponsors of course. SNG Barratt, for one. Rock Auto is a good source. eBay can have great buys. Avoid Deutsche Parts though imo. They have an F reading from the BBB. Remember that many ford suspension bits are interchangeable with Jaguar and priced lower.

Try the search function too. Here's a great thread:

Yeah I would also avoid Deutsche Parts on eBay. Bought some toe links from them and they are completely rusted and giving me a bad squeak every time I hit a bump. This was only after 9 months or so.

Many of the suspension arm parts for the XK and other recent/current Jaguar models are manufactured by LEMFÖRDER and are not unique to Jaguar. With this information in your search criteria, you can find OE specification and quality from aftermarket parts suppliers without the OE price.
