You wouldn't want directional tires mounted and turning the wrong direction, or drilled and slotted rotors, so why would you want your wheels to rotate the wrong direction?

Fair point!

When you clock your wheels, is it important to you to clock all four or just each side? Only you will know if all four are clocked, remember. Don’t forget to clock the lug nuts and tire pressure caps too.

Plus the center caps! Can't have any of them disoriented either.

The wheels would need reset after each drive, since all 4 wheels would not continue to rotate at the same time/distance during turning. Very time consuming, but it gives your Volvo that extra special look that it deserves.

Car show judges may even give you an extra point during their judging of your Volvo.

We need some of those Rolls Royce style weighted spinning center caps, so they're always perfectly upright!

I have a brand new water pump and gasket for P80 series.

I replaced my water pump with a Aisen pump I had laying around. I now have the water pump that came in my Contitech timing belt kit sitting on the shelf and I will not need it anytime soon.

I have a pair of rear wheel bearing hubs off of my 2003 FWD V70. Thought for sure I had a bearing going out but it turned out to be a bad tire. Not sure what other years/models they will fit. Both carry the part number FAG 801843 40BV so I guess they're interchangeable. Pay the shipping and they're yours.

I have parts removed from my 2005 XC90 2.5T with 90K (I did preventive maintenance at 90K).
So these parts have 90K on them:

- WP (factory Volvo), bearing still good, but you need a Green Volvo gasket ($2)
- Timing Belt (still looks OK, but you may want a new TB by Conti)
- Idler Pulley (still good but you might want to buy a new one after another 20K)
- Tensioner Pulley

Based on forum data, these parts should give you another 50K of service.

I am in Nebraska, so shipping is about $15.
Pay shipping cost and it is all yours.
