Strut mounts

posted by  someone claiming to be Ron DeBlock on  Wed Nov 1 02:56 CST 2000 [RELATED]

My '89 244 needs new strut mounts - the rubber is all cracked. It also needs new strut cartridges (the left one is leaking badly). Lots of clunking in the front suspension, hopefully fixing the things that are obviously broken will take care of all the noise.

There was discussion some time back regarding which brands of strut mounts to avoid due to early failure. I can't find anything in the archives, so can someone please remind me which ones are bad? Besides Volvo OE, is any other brand OK? Who makes Volvo's OE strut mounts?

Thanks!
