Hi Dave,
Today, I removed the control stay, which was easier than expected, meaning that unbolting was without any problem, as I see that Volvo used a white anti-seize.
Now, the problem: cleaning the conical housing to fit the bushings. I tried with a wire brush, so far just the front side, but still the bushing does not fit.
I measured the bushing part that should fit in and it is 32mm, the hole is 28mm, a big difference.

Also, it looks like there is groove in the middle of the hole.
I do have one of those step-drill conical bit, and the biggest diam is 32mm, maybe that could be a solution?
