Interesting. Let us know how you get on fitting it.
Pics of course too.

Fitted those mounts today wasn't that hard, the hardest part being removing the old bushes [img][IMG]http://i1262.photobucket.com/albums/ii611/paulmcdouglefish/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zps2l4pq62j.jpeg[/img][/img]

Sorry about the photo bucket links I don't really know how to post the pics properly

FTFY

Well done for getting the pics. Looks a very worthwhile repair/ upgrade. So the original one there has an inner metal sleeve?

Have you tested the car now the work is done?

[Paulcovy]

Yes the metalasitic bush is completely replaced by the poly bush ..... Drives very nice steering is sharper and feels tighter

[naki_k]

Sounds good. No down sides?

[Paulcovy]

No not that I've experienced... I bout those spacers off eBay as well for the XJrs but there's no room for them ... So I would say it's a better fitting bush than the original

[naki_k]

Ok good. Did you use a chisel to cut off the old metal bush?
