URO is fairly new to the business so the jury is still out. We all know that Scan Tech is crap. There is another guy on one of the boards that installed the URO product control arms a couple of months ago and it has been so for so good for him but that doesn't yet qualify them to be an "approved" vendor.

After reading all of the bad things about aftermarket control arms I have stuck with OEMs. When thevolvopartsclub.com was last up and running they were selling OEM arms for around $70.00 which was about the same price as the aftermarket junk. I have not yet bought any arms since they ceased operations - the link works again and it looks like they are coming back - but I have now shifted OEM parts purchases to Darrell Waltrip Volvo in Tennessee. I wish they had a web page to order from but they are real friendly folks, Jamie or Don at (800)689-0021.

The most important thing is to get the control arm back to a normal ride height before torquing down the bolts to the frame or it will destroy the bushings.
