Well I swapped the Pesky bush on the axle but after , though it was perhaps a bit better there was still a clunk on the dirt road.
So today I swapped the left front strut. That definitely eliminated quite a few noises but there was still a clunk.
So I swapped the strut that has two eyes and goes from top of the axle forward to the body. The bushes in this were shot and the replacement was OK.
Well it seemed to reduce the noises but then, there they were, just like I'd done nothing.
Well almost. Definitely has reduced but definitely still there somewhere.
I've put a good stabilizer bar bush in as well.
The rear shocker is a bit ordinary so tomorrow I will swap that.
If the noise is still there after that it's going to stay there. I have no more clues.
Maybe Volvos just do this on dirt roads?
