Front and Rear Suspension Bushings/Mounts Parts List
#1
![Question](https://www.jaguarforums.com/forum/images/icons/icon5.gif)
Hi all. I started having the front and rear suspension bushings, etc. replaced on the wife's 2001 XK8 convertible, The work I have had done thus far has really improved the ride and handling. I need to continue the work on her car and start the same on my 2006 XKR convertible. Most of the part numbers are the same between the 8 and the R. Listed below is what I have compiled thus far.
My questions are:
1. What important parts am I missing that should be replaced?
2. Are any more critical than others?
3. I think all parts listed as the same between 8 and R are correct. Can anyone let me know if this is not so?
3. The shocks on the XKR are still in decent shape (just rolled over 48,000 miles). Is it worth replacing the shock bushings now?
4. Ball joints at last service on each were still in good shape. What SHOULD be the expected life for these?
