Hi,

Looking at buying a 2001 XJR. These cars are old now and mostly have high mileage.

I'd like it to ride/glide like new, no knocks or jolts from underneath and no shimmying through the steering wheel.

To my mind that's an overhaul of all the rubber parts underneath? All bushes etc. in all wishbones/drop-links/etc.

Has anybody ever had a complete overhaul like this done? If so, how expensive was it and how effective was it?

Is there anything else you'd add to the list? Do the CATS shock absorbers tire?

Thanks,
Adrian.
