HELP! wheel hub assembly
Discussion
Ok, can anyone tell me if there are other Jaguar models with the same running gear as a 2003 XKR400. I believe there are but don't know for sure. Trying to source a wheel hub assembly, front o/s and I point blank refuse to go back to the franchise dealer in Perth (don't ask). I can't find for the item sale anywhere else on the net for my particular car. Have found others but unsure as to wether or not they'll fit. This is now driving me to distraction.
Many thanks in anticipation of those who reply with any info.

What's wrong with just asking the dealer for the part numbers, then see if they tally with, for example, a normal XKR of the same year?
I've just read a little xkr400 bit of info on google and I'd be inclined to think that the hub would stay the same as other xkr. Granted the discs and calipers will be different but that might not mean requiring a whole new hub design. What I'm trying to say is that if you want to modify a car to handle better, you generally don't need to change the hub. Springs, dampers, ARB, brakes and calipers yes, but I don't think altering the hub, especially a Jaguar one, would be cost effective for the manufacturer.
(IMHO)
