[Nobbc] Looking for Jaguar repair information

[Andy Preston]

The limiting factor is the wheel arch at the back that shrouds the tire on
full bounce.  Another concern is the amount the rear axle has shifted to the
left of the car which is very common.  This is caused by the axle torque
over time. You can see how much the axle has moved by measuring the distance
between the top of the tire and inner wheel well.  That will also give you a
guide to how much wider a tire can be.  I've seen 195s and maybe 205s but
they are a very close fit.

I'll second the jag lovers site at www.jag-lovers.org.  When I had my XJS
and XJ6 I got most of my information from that site.  There's a bunch of
good Jag guys who love to help you out.  I take my XJ8 to John at Autokraft
on Yolanda Ave.  He's a real nice guy and knows what he's doing.
