THE CASE FILE

THE BIT THEY DIDN'T PUT ON THE BOX.

An executive saloon meets its American cousin.

Developed on the shared Ford DEW98 platform, the suspension components are geometrically identical. The Jaguar-branded part costs £220+, while the domestic Lincoln/Ford equivalent sits at £60–£85.

SO WHAT'S THE CATCH?

Geometry, side, bushing and revision need to match.

“The interesting bit isn't the badge. It's what happens when you search for the part behind it.”

THE INTERNET DETECTIVE'S CHECKLIST

Look for complete part numbers and revisions, make sure you're comparing the same quantity, and check the exact model/application. That's especially important with electrical, braking, steering, battery and other safety-related components.

STILL CURIOUS?

MORE TRICKS.
MORE STICKERS.
