More front end questions

Hi all,

I looked at the FAQs but I didn't see any criteria for determining whether replacement of the bushings in the sway link is necessary.

How does one determine this?

It looks like I have an alum. control arm, therefore, I have the straight link that takes 4 washers and 4 bushings (per car side).

Looking at www.fcpgroton.com/volvo700900ftsuspension.htm ...

The replacement bushings would be item 12? Item 12 looks like the bushings on the bottom of my link, but not the ones on the top. Maybe the top ones are really wasted and should look lke the bottom?

Thanks all..
