So I'm trying to fix a strange clunking problem with my rear shocks (1986 240DL sedan). Believe me, the problem is NOT the shocks. Anyways, I've discovered that either the top or bottom shock bolt is causing the clunking. At least I hope so. So I want to go buy new bolts. I know the top one mounts weird and might be a volvo-only type of thing, but the bottom one is a standard bolt. Anyone know, off hand, what the size is? I know to get 8 strength and such... I realized I can't take it into a place, because I'd have to drive my car there...so any help is appreciated!
