Well I'm going to be replacing the right front strut, had already replaced right CV boots before they failed. I have a new Volvo rack bellows kit - but the originals look pretty good so maybe I can skip that. Seems like they are far less stressed then those CV boots. Are the rack boots good for a long long time?

2. The inner sway bar bushings have some cracks - I'll probably have the bar disconnected a bit for strut removal, two big bolts that have average to poor accessibility. Then slide or WRESTLE the bushing off the bar? Easy or gruesome? Volvo might have gone No LOnger Available on that part.
UPDATE: 10-9 of haynes guide says "on later models the bushings are vulcanized to the anti rollbar and are not available". That would be Gruesome.

I'm hoping to skip both tasks unless that makes me a fool.

BTW - I may not put this car back on the road till November, i have 7 other cars so don't want to go too overboard on the 850. It's not that I am without transportation while I do this but I do want it out of the garage soon. Work on the other cars.

When I'm finally complete in November - I'll have to take if for an alignment. I might get to the left cv boots, maybe some EGR stuff . Car has 112k miles or so, not sure.
