    Jag STR Big Brake Pad

    According to RockAuto all of these cars use the same calipers. So find a set of used calipers from one and you should be good. I got a set from a 2011 XJ (non supercharged).

    2007 Jaguar STR Brakes Confirmed

    The front logo plates come with brake hardware kits. They are blank and unpainted. The rear will be more difficult. I found a guy on ebay that was making them but it doesn't appear as he is anymore. Your best bet would be to find a used set of calipers that has the rear plates.

    Got my steering wheel refinished. After 235k it was in rough shape.

    Jag Big Brake Install

    Definitely, 17" wheels won't fit either.

    2007 Jaguar STR Brakes Confirmed

    I got my rear logo plates from a guy on ebay that was making them. It was a lot cheaper than getting them from Jaguar but the seller doesn't show any more available. Multiple layers of tape works pretty well. I had a couple areas that need touched up afterwards but it works.

    No I didn't, never thought of that. I think forscan can do it, I'll have to give it a try.

    2007 Jaguar STR Brakes Confirmed

    I doubt it. I bled them several times to see if that was the issue. The problem is the first 1" or so of brake pedal travel doesn't do a whole lot. Compared to other vehicles you got to push the pedal a lot farther to get the initial bite.

    2002 Lincoln LS Super Sport????

    No such thing from Lincoln. Possibly some dealer add on. LS "Super Sport" Here is an old thread about it. Not much more than a badge and body kit.

    2007 Jaguar STR Brakes Confirmed

    Finally after 7 years I get around to doing this. I wanted to do this mod since dwiggy first posted about it but I didn't have the funds or time. When I did have the funds I went and bought an Evo X and the LS was relegated as a backup car. Now many years later the LS was about due for a brake...

    Beautiful day, but.... what the?

    The old parts are not so beautiful. 230k on them and I was getting a clunk from one side.

    Beautiful day, but.... what the?

    I just redid my rear suspension and didn't notice anything like that. The casting was a bit rough in a few areas though. I should take a closer look when I get home.

    03 LS to STR brake swap

    I'm currently refinishing some 2010 Jaguar XJ calipers (same calipers as 06+ S Type R) that I got of ebay for $125. This is the easiest and cheapest way to get big brakes for the LS. I looked into what would be required to do the Brembo swap and its way too much. The complete fronts suspension...

    LS with LSD

    I read somewhere on here that it wasn't possible to fit a Trac Lok into a second gen housing. The Trac Lok will fit in the first gen housing and the first gen housing will bolt on a second gen LS. But you need first gen axles too. That's what I have on my second gen LS.

    Official LS Picture Thread

    I have the Orion V2. I haven't had any experience with any other brands so I'm not sure. Just remember that 00-02 and 03-06 have different headlights so make sure you order the correct ones.

    Official LS Picture Thread

    Yeah, the transmission has been the most troubling thing. I replaced it at 130k with a transmission that came with a Ford warranty. Then at 160k I was having more issues and Ford replaced it under warranty. And at 190k Ford did some repair work on it under warranty. They are factory lights...
