Steve go to Gus's web site
/JagRepair.com - Jaguar Repair Information Resource
Here has a good step by step procedure with photos. I was a great tool for doing the job. I did mine took about eight hours including installing the relief valve. Seriously think about adding the relief valve or resistor, there's plenty of information about both on the forum.

That sounds like record time. Were there some shortcuts you discovered or improvised to be able to do the job that quickly?

I only had to replace the 4 cylinder hoses but I ran the new into place before removing the old - so it was just a matter of disconnecting old and reconnecting the new - even screwed up and had to come back to the forum - JTIS says bottom hose of pump rear connector goes to bottom connector on cylinder when top hose goes to bottom connector - but all good and working - now cleaning the seats and side panels before reinstalling and realigning the rear quarter windows to clear the slight gap when windows are up.

Doug - no, latch hoses were replaced just before I bought it.
Gus, - yes went to that link first but all that opens is the title no diagram, so I opened the JTIS and followed most of what it said until I ran into the snag. I did a search on the forum and someone had posted a pdf of the hose connections so all is good.

This is me, circa next week! Exact same scenario- glad to see this and can't wait to be in the same boat. Congrats on the job well done. Will use the links in here.
I haven't even driven it in more than a month because the top wouldn't latch in the process- one of the other 4 hoses burst in the back as it flopped down on top of the windshield, then passed out. Been running it once a week to keep it lubed.

Chris - it's pretty straight forward job. If I remember your post - you have the four hoses and the pump - so the removel of the pump is already done. Something else - The JTIS procedure has you remove the rear seat and seat back. I honestly think this step can be skipped - just remove the seat belt anchors at the top of the seat back and then you should be able to pull the linning from behind the seat to route the hoses from the passenger side to the drivers side. It's a little tricky putting the side panels back in this way but it may be a little less work for you. In my case, I did remove the seat/seat back and gave them a good cleaning before I reinstalled.
also - here is the diagram for the hose connections I found on the forum
