Hi all! Newbie here. Owned my 740 since '03 and recently put it back on the road.
Changing belts this weekend, we had to grind off the end of this thing to get it out.
What's it called, and where can we get a replacement? (see pic)

Welcome to Matthew's Volvo Site.

I love a challenge. If the part is from the alternator then I think it is part #7 on the attached:

You may be able to pick one up in a breaker's yard or, for new parts, check our sponsors at the top of the forum. Their ads are links to their sites. Two of them do list this.

Bill.
