While the transmission guys were working on my car, they noticed that there was a lot of play in my back wheels, citing bad wheel bearings as the culprit. Are they hard to replace? Should I take her to a shop that works on Jags?

By the way, thanks Brian for the advise on the drive shaft bolts. The ones that were in it were all thread bolts with no washers. I purchased the 1.75" bolts and had them cut down. Just like you said, the shanks were perfect. It's always nice knowing a job is done well. The guys at Vintage Mustangs here in Atlanta were great to deal with. Johnny (ex-marine recon chopper pilot and later Harrier pilot in Viet Nam) was very meticulous. Nice job.
