Everything I said above applies to series 2/3.
There is a variation in lower arm designs within Series 2 as well. Which I have just recently found out. Same with tie rod lever arms. Makes finding matching parts a pain. It's ok if you are just buying a complete front set.

And the uprights are slightly different.
But....knowing these differences can make setting the front geometry a little easier.
ie....If you want to reduce caster if using the series 11 uppers then use a series 1 lower arm. This swop will also increase neg camber but it's easier with the shims.
If you have series 1 lowers and want to increase caster then change to series 11 lowers.
If you have series 1 uppers you can swop them to increase/decrease caster.
Keep in mind that most kit manufacturers copy the Jag geometry...problem is a jag weighs 4832Lbs(2192 Kg).
So a bit of fiddling is needed for our lighter cars.
