A friendly suggestion....:)
You can be economical with some parts but don’t skimp on the control arms. Folks who have used cheap ones end up replacing them rather quickly. Only use OEM or Lemforder control arms. I believe Lemforder is OEM anyway.

BTW - My Dad had a 2001 V70. Nice car! Will always appreciate that car. The car gave its life and probably saved my Dad’s life when he was rear-ended at 60 mph. Don’t think a 240 is as safe in a rear end collision.

Stay safe,
Jim
