  1. 850 (1993-1997)
    Hi all, I recently purchased a 1996 850 Turbo Sedan and I'm hoping to get some feedback regarding a front strut brace. I am having a hard time finding anything online and I also have the question if it's needed at all? My plans for this car aren't set in stone but I do have a few mods coming in...
  2. S60, S60CC & V60, V60CC (2011-2018)
    I've had my S60 R-Design for a few months now and it has become readily apparent that something in my front end is going out. There's a rattle/clunk from the front right of the car whenever I go over bumps or potholes, and when I take a sharp left there is sometimes a horrific metal to metal...
  3. R Forum (2004-2007)
    I'm look to adjust the camber on all four wheels for my '06 v70 (2.5t-turned-R). I'm not looking for crazy camber, just something with noticeable improvement in performance. I'm not sure what I need and what brands to look for. By 2.5t turned R, the suspension is aftermarket coilovers and now...
  4. S80 (2007-2016)
    I'm going to be getting a suspension refresh on my 2012 S80 3.2 very soon. According to my Volvo mechanic, the struts and shocks are not leaking but are getting weak. Plus, ever since I bought the car, the front end will squeak over bumps (only audible with the windows down) and will make...

    Anyone have exact info on what's different between the standard and cross country models when It comes to suspension components? I heard partially that the lower control arms are from the XC on the CC cars, but have nothing else to tell me whether that's true or not.
  6. V70 & V70XC & XC70 (2001-2007)
    My suspension is on its way out and I’m checking out my options for suspension replacements. I could ho Sachs/OEM kit from FCP Euro but am interested in Bilstein struts as a slight upgrade with a little more stiffness. I know the rear struts have to be XC70/AWD specific because of the weight but...

  8. S60 & V60, V60CC (SPA: 2019- )
    Hi I’m looking at getting the car mentioned in the title, but I want to take it to the track. And knowing it has the leaf spring, how do you lower it? Or stiffen it? Like literally what can u do. My friend also said that it’d cause really bad understeer and potentially wheel hop on the track? I...
  9. S80 (2007-2016)
    Hi there, I have owned my 2012 S80 for about 5yrs now and just noticed something strange. The car came stock with the aluminium suspension arms. I changed them a few thousand kms ago to newer ones but they have the exact same part numbers as the originals, no trouble here. I have done a lot...
  10. S40 & V50 (2005-2012)
    Like many of us, the outer bolt of my rear lower control arm is seized into the bushing. One thing I can't find are dimensions or a part number for the bolt I'm about to destroy. I read about folks getting new hardware, but I have had no luck finding this dang bolt. It's part 9 in the diagram...

  12. V70 & V70XC & XC70 (2001-2007)
    So im not sure what lowering springs and shock absorbers to get. My goal is to get the car lower but not too low, and handling better than stock without losing too much comfort. Im thinking of getting bilstein b8 with these lowering springs. Help would be appreciated.
  13. S60 (2001-2010)
    I'm super excited to do some real modifications to my 07 2.5T FWD and am looking at BC coilovers (linked below). I found a great youtube video from Octane Overdrive installing what I think is the same kit on his 05 2.5T. My question is whether or not the suspension systems are exactly the same...

  15. V70 & XC70 (2008 - 2016)
    Hi, my 2009 XC70 T6 is starting to get a bit springy in the turns and over bumps. I'm only at 95k miles, but live in the Boston MA area and the roads are quite terrible. I think it is time to replace at least the front shocks, possibly the rear. Need some advice: My XC70 doesn't have the active...

    I have a pair of brand new SKP strut bellows and bump stops. I bought them off Rock Auto for my '00 V70 XC, but ended up not using them. The part number is SK90462, I'm sure they fit more than just my car. Here is the link of the part I bought so you can check fitment/application More...

    Hi all. Front end has a floaty feel and clunks on turns. Mechanic said it was the front sway bar bushings. I went in hoping to replaced them but found out they're tucked up under the firewall and above the subframe. It's very tight, couldn't get a wrench in there. Any tips on replacing these...

  20. S70, V70 & V70XC (1998-2000)
    I'm looking at coilovers for my V70 and don't want to pay for KW prices. I see BC Racing has S70 coils for the base model. I was wondering how different are the S70 to the V70. Will S70 suspension just bolt up to the V70 chassis?
