delta link suspension bolts

Post by aharres »

hello. i am going to replace the 4 delta link bushings soon, but i am having trouble finding the part numbers for the bolts which volvo insists that you replace. i believe it is because they are stretch bolts. i looked at my haynes manual which tells me which bolts need to be replaced, but the descriptions of the bolts are not helping me. if anyone knows the part numbers, i would greatly appreciate it.

IPD has them in their catalog. No reason to use OEM here, lots of good experience with aftermarket parts

I am going this way for the replacement I plan to use that I had fortunately come across at the yard.

All of the bushings are likely shot in the 20+ year old car, especially after the last winter here.

It will take care of upgrading my '93 sedan to five lug in the rear. as well as not needing the tool...

This came from a '98 S70, of which appeared nearly new.
Many parts were taken from this scrap car. I actually wanted to tow it home.

Addressing the original post,
I was able to scavenge all the bolts, which can get pricey from the dealer, but can be found.
FCP, IPD, and others usually have the needed bolts as mentioned,
Good wrenching.

I also ordered the bushings and all of the bolts related to attaching the bushings.
