Detailed Description

Hotbray CAC9938X is a suspension ball joint for the front upper position on select Jaguar Vanden Plas, XJ6, XJR, XJ12, and XJS vehicles.

What It Helps Address

  • Front suspension looseness at the upper ball joint
  • Clunking or knocking from the front suspension
  • Uneven steering response caused by worn joint articulation
  • Excessive play in the upper control arm connection
  • Inspection failures related to front suspension wear

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle year, model, and front upper position before ordering. Compare the existing part number and suspension layout to confirm CAC9938X matches your Jaguar application. Because fitment varies by model and year, use the vehicle-specific listing rather than a general suspension match.

Quality Assurance

This Hotbray suspension ball joint is listed with a 0.537 kg weight and manufacturing origin notes of DE or TR depending on application coverage. Use the confirmed fitment data and part number CAC9938X to verify the correct replacement for your Jaguar suspension service.
