Hi Volvo drivers gang So today, i've tried to replace engine mounts... The one under the gear box, no problem. Everything was a little bit rusty but two forearms later it was in place. The one front, was easy too. I have to order the one under the crankshaft pulley, the rubber plays in the holder. ...

To properly torque the 30mm nut back onto the crank you will need a means to hold the crank from turning. There are tools available to buy or you could make your own. Details available if you need more information.

Volvo decided to switch to a higher(55) profile later in the production because of customer complaints about bent rim...

It is a North America parking by 'touch'. The higher sidewalls were less prone to sidewall splits. Many tires are good today. Any of the brands mentioned are good as well as Pirelli, Vredstein and Gislaved. It for me comes down to price and what type of driving you do. I have used Toyo as I found th...

Facom make good tools. Either are good, but I prefer the older style as you can add a little piece of pipe to get more leverage. The 'T' type with the plastic may be able to do that but the plastic can crack. As for WD-40, probably just as well peeing on the bolts. More likely to help remove the rus...
