Wh en t
he vehicle is being reco
vered by rear suspended tow:
The ignition key must be remo ved from the ig
nition switch to lock the stee
ring with the front wheels facing straight
ahead.
The re ar
wheels must be
correctly positioned in the lifting cradle and securely tied down.
Em
ergency Towing
WARNING: IF THE

ENGINE IS NOT
RUNNING, THE STEERING WILL BECOME HEAVY AND THE FORCE NECESSARY TO
EFFECTIVELY APPLY THE BRAKES WILL BE GREATLY INCREASED.
• CAUTIONS:
A vehicle with a defective transmission must be towed by rear suspended tow.
The vehicle towing point is not suit able for use with a solid tow-bar.
Do not use the crossbeam tie bar as a towing location.
When the vehicle is being towed on its own wheels:
Loc a
l regulations for the towing of ve
hicles must be followed. In some co untries the registration number of the
towing vehicle and an 'On Tow' sign or warning triangle must be displayed at the rear of the towed vehicle.
The gear s
elector lever
must be in Neutral.
The
ignition switch must be in positi
on II to release the steering lock and make the direction indicators, horn and
stop lamps operate.
A di
stance of 0.8 km (0.5 mi
le) must not be exceeded.
A spe
ed of 48 km/h (30 mph) must not be exceeded.
The tow rope must be attached using th
e towi
ng location provided; refer to Front Towing Point in this section.

eral Procedures
• NOTE: Before any work is commenced, th e vehicle must be checked to establish that it conforms to the Jaguar original
specification, e.g. wheels, ti res, tire pressures, etc.
• NOTE: The vehicle must be unladen and the fuel tank full when measuring suspension geometry.

1.
Road test the vehicle to establish the exact nature of the
complaint, e.g. pulling to one side, wander.
2. Measure the suspension geometry, fill in the 'Suspension
Geometry Record Form', and co ntact Jaguar Technical Support
for assistance.
3. Technical Support will give advice on the course of action to be
taken to rectify the problem.
4. Each lower wishbone pivots on and is secured to the front
crossbeam by two fulcrum bolts. A circular eccentric flange
formed under the hexagonal head of each fulcrum bolt, has
raised graduation marks to indicate radial position. A washer
with a 'D' shaped hole locates on a flat on the threaded section
of each bolt. This ensures that the washer rotates with the bolt,
maintaining an eccentric position corresponding with the
flanged head. The outer face of the washer is punch marked,
ensuring correct instal lation with the chamfered face inwards.
This permits the washer to rotate freely in the crossbeam cam
reaction plate during a djustm ent. Each fulcrum bolt and
washer are secured by a self locking nut.
On rotation of the bolt, lateral movement of the eccentric flange
and washer is restricted by the cam plate faces, forcing the bolt
shank to move laterally in the crossbeam slots. Lateral
movement of the bolt shank re sults in corresponding inward
and outward movement of th e wishbone arm, effecting
adjustment of wh eel alignment.
Rotation of the front fulcrum bolt principally adjusts wheel
caster angle, with a small amount of camber angle change.
Adjustment of the rear fulcrum bo lt mainly alters wheel camber
angle with a small amount of caster angle change.
On vehicles with VIN up to 833124, fulcrum bolt eccentric
flanges have raised graduation marks representing 15 degree
increments of bolt rotati on from 0 to 90 degrees.
On vehicles with VIN from 833125, the fulcrum bolt graduation
marks represent bolt shank ho rizontal movement in 1mm
increments from 0 to 3mm.
The upper wishbone and fulcrum shaft are not adjustable and
play no part in steering geometry adjustment.

ral Procedures

1.
NOTE: Before checking or adju sting any alignment, examine
the vehicle for curb impact dama ge on wheels and subsequent
damage to steering and suspension components.
• NOTE: Wheel alignment must no t be carried out with a space
saver wheel installed on any of the hubs.
• NOTE: Before carrying out any ch ecking or adjustment of wheel
alignment, ensure that the vehicl e wheels, tires and tire pressures
are to Jaguar specification.
• NOTE: Position steering wheel in straight ahead position before
adjusting front wheel toe evenly on both tie rods to maintain
centralization of steering wheel.
Position alignment checking equipment on vehicle and following
equipment manufacturer's instructions, check and if necessary
adjust to Specifications in Section 204-01.
2. Check and as necessary adjust front wheel caster. Refer to
57.65.05.
3. Check and as necessary adjust front wheel camber. Refer to
57.65.06.
4. Check and as necessary adjust fr ont wheel alignment. Refer to
57.65.01.

Upper
Wishbones
Each
upper wi
shbone assembly is a on
e-piece steel forging incorporating:
A pres
s-fit ball joint.
Press-fi

t bushes for location of the upper fulcrum bolt.
Lower Wishbones
Each l
o
wer wishbone comprising
forged steel front and rear arms bolted together, incorporates:
A p
ress-fit ball joint in the outer extremity of the rear arm.
Press-f
i
t bushes for location of the lower fulcrum bolts
Locati
on for the shock absor
b
er lower mounting plates.
Vertica l Links

The vertical
links are of forged steel
wi
th integral steering arms. Each is suppo rted between the upper and lower wishbones
by two ball joints and carries:
Front hub

Brake ca
liper and disc shield assembly

ABS se
nsor
.
Front Hub
s

Each f
o
rged steel front hub accommodates sealed for life cartridge
type wheel bearings, and carries:
The brake rotor assembl
y.
A
h
ub nut with toothed, integral ABS rotor.
Su
s
pension spring pi
n locking device.
Front Road
Springs
The road spri
ng
s are of coil type with their
rating dependent upon vehicle specification
Ea
ch spring is installed between the suspension crossbeam location and the lower wishbone spring pan.
Ru
bber seats ar
e installed betw
een the spring and the crossb eam and the spring pan.
Front Shock A
bsorbers
Th
e
shock absorbers are telescopic hydrau
lically operated units. Optional adaptive damping units incorporate a solenoid-
operated control valve at their upper extremity.
Each shoc
k absorber is installed between the lowe
r wishbone rear arm and a recess in the body.
The l
o
wer end of the shock absorber is se
cured to plates on the wishbone by a bolt that also serves as a pivot.
The u
pper en
d of each shock absorber is secured to the body location by a single nut.
Front Sta
b
ilizer Bar
A
front stabil
izer bar installed on all vehicles
is rated according to suspension specification.
Opera
tion
As each road wheel r
i
ses, move
ment is transmitted through the vertical link assembly to the lower wishbone. The resulting
rise of the wishbone compresses the road spring and partially telescopes the shock absorber. During this action, the spring
absorbs associated shocks and the shock absorber minimizes sprin
g os c
illation.

Du

ring cornering, vehicle weight
is transferred to the outer road wheel with a resulting tendency for the inner wheel to lift.
The stabilizer bar assists in minimizing this tendency by transf erring a proportion of potential lift of the inner wheel to the
outer wheel. This result s in enhanced body stability with improved corner ing capabilities.
