• S60 Front End Clunking

  Swaybar links and tie rod end links are notorious issues on S60’s. I would start with the swaybar links if when the vehicle is off the ground there is any vertical movement when you grab hold, the PAIR need replaced. Secondly the tie rod end links go bad often… While you still have the vehicle in the air, you rock your tire up and down and front and back you see much movement they need replaced as a pair.
