Mine is a 91, sedan. FCP is pretty good with returns. So is IPD for that matter. My plan is to stick with OE Volvo where possible. We know that most if not all the bearings on cars of this vintage are SKF.

While I have the opportunity to take the car apart and redo everythign "at my leisure" I want to do everything possible. When I was driving the car full time I did find the steering to be a bit "tight" or stiff. According to the faq, one cause of this is indeed the strut mount bearings. This is what turned me onto doing this job in the first place. I haven't got around to flushing the power steering system yet so I don't know if that will help.

Thanks guys.
