Modification Procedure

(1) Place a support under the coil spring pan at each side and lower jack sli8Ptly so that weight of suspension is taken.

( 2) Remove the two bol ta securing the upper wishbone levers to the upper ball joints. Take care to keep the ahima and packing pieoe in their correct relative positions or the castor angle will be upset.

Note: Support the weight of' the brake disc or hub so that the flexible brake hose is not allowed to become extended when the wishbone levers are disconnected..

(3) Disconnect the f'ront m:>untings of the front suspension cross­member assembly by removing the four bolts; slacken the bolt securing each rear mounting to the chassis side member. This will a.f'f'ord the necessary clearance to allow the rear Wishbone levers to be removed when the front end of the suspension unit is lowered.

(4) Remove the m1t and bolt which secures the upper wishbone levers together.

Withdraw the split pins and unsc::rew the two s lotted nu.ts. Rellk)ve the washers and wishbone levers noti ng that the inner washers are c:ham:fered arown the hol e and that the chamfer mu.st be fitted inwards.

(5) Out or :file a piece out of the rebowxl stop plate as shown in Fig. 2.

(6) Weld the additional. rebound stop plates on top of the existing plate in the position ahown in Fig.2. that is, at the top, bottom and front edges of the plates. The plates are handed and the widest em of the plate must be f'i tted at the rear.

Note: The necessary welding !!1!1 be carried out with arc welding (not gaa) equipment and the bra.lce disc, coil spring and brake flexible hose sui tabl.y protected with asbestos sheeting or similar material from welding "f'lashes".

Before carrying out a:s:zy welding check that the new plate seats down on the existing plate otherwise remve the suzplus weld at the point where existing plate is welded to f'ront suspension cross member.

(7) Reassemble the modified wishbone levers and :tUlly tighten the slotted nuts with the wishbone levers positioned as near as possible to the no:nna.J. riding position, that is, approximately horizontal.

(8) A:f'ter oompleting re-assembly, it will be necessary to check and reset if necesaar.y, the castor, camber and f'rcnt wheel alignment. The procedure f'or adjusting the castor and camber angles is described on pages J .1 8 and J .19 ot the Front Suspension section ot the Mark 1 2.l./3.4 litre Service Manus] but the settings are as follows:-

2.4, 3.4 and 3. 8 litre Mark 2 Models

Camber Angle Castor Angle

g_O + .1..0 4 -4

I t will be noted that there are two alternative operations.

Operation 1. Check position of rebound stop plates. If inoorrect, modifY rebound stop plat es and fit JOOdified wishbone levers for whidl the l abour allowance time will be 6i man hours.

Operation 2. Inspect rebound stop plates for correct position on front suspension cross member. It correct, fit modified wishbone levers for \vhich the labour allowance time is st man hours.

It is the responsibility of each distributor to ensure that all cars sold by them direct or through their dealers or to the motor trade in their territory or held in stock in their territory are oal.led in for inspection and modification with all possible speed.

We do not desire this zoodifioa.tion to be carried out other than by Jaguar Distributors and Dealers and cars originally supplied. through or stocked by non-oontracting traders DUSt be called in and modi:fied by the distributor or dealer who supplied the oar to the tre.der.

The necessary supply of' parts to cover the estimated requirements of each distributor is being f'orwarded. by the Jaguar Spares Department to the distril:utors concerned.

We have been advised by the manufacturers Messrs.

In certain circumstances~ if the nut is not secured to the rod it could unscrew itself instead of the screwed rod winding out of the end pad.

If you a r e in possession of this tool pl ease check that the nut is secured to the rod. If there is any doubt about the welding, all that is required is a blob of weld to secure the nut to the end of the rod or alternatively the nut could be pinned.

If you cannot conveniently carry this out please return the necessary parts to V.L.Churchill's at the following address who will then do this work on a free of charge bas i s .

On cars with the above chassis numbers and onwards ~proved grease seals are fitted to the top and bottom ball joints of the wheel swivels. In conjunction with the fitting of this type of seal a bleed hole is incorporated in the ball joint. The bleed hole ts covered by a circular nylon-washer which lifts under pressure and allows grease to escape and indicates when sufficient lubricant has been applied ( see illustration overleaf). This obviat es the tendency for grease to escape past the seals when too much pressure is applied.

The front hubs should be lubricated every 10,000 miles (16,000 km) with a grease gun. Care should be taken not to overlubricate the hubs causing the seals to "blow".

STEERII\C GEOMETRY

(ALL l\UDELS)

An improved method has now been formulated f or checking the Castor and Camber angles on all cars.

Thi s me thod, detai led bel ow, ensures t hat t he car i s locked in the mid-laden position which has been adopted as the Datum line and should be used for all future checking operatLons .

Castor Angle Adjustment ~:;::::::==::::::----~_._,

Before checking the castor angle, exam.ine all rubber/steel bushes for signs of deterioration or distorti on.

Check the upper and lower wishbone ball joints for excessive wear ; check the shock absorbe r s and mountj ngs.

Check tyre pressures.

Ensure that standing height is equal on both- sides of the car.

Make up two setting blocks and links to the dimensions shown in t he followi ng illustra tions, according to t he car to be checked.

Lock t he front of the car in the mid-laden position by compressing the front suspension and place the setting blocks , where applicable, nnder the upper wishbone adjacent to the bump stop rebound rubber and over the bracket welded to the bot tOOl of the "turret" as illustrated.

No te: ' E1 Type cars are l ocked by links and not be blocks ( see illustration).

Using special links, lock the r ear suspens1on in the mid-laden posi t ion.

To fit the rear setting link, hook one end over the body bracket, or in the case of cars with independent r ear suspension, i n the lower hole of the rear mow1ting. Depress the body and attach the opposite end of the setting link (see illustration for method of f i tting).

Check t he castor angle by the nonnal method, usi ng an approved gauge to the figures quoted in the appropriate Service Manual.
