Now that I think about it a little, the 'mark front wheels' remark is kind of redundant because all the Volvo wheels that I have come across have the pin on the inside so that you are always mounting them in the same way.

One new thing that I discovered while looking around at everything with the suspension sprung on wheel ramps is what looks like a rub mark on the inside of the tire and a corresponding one on the strut tower. Which makes sense because I definitely think that this noise is coming more from the right side than the left side. There are no similiar marks on the left side. I think I am going to put some tape and talcum powder on the place where I think the tire might be rubbing to confirm this. If this rubbing is happening there than any guesses as to how my replacing the ball joints and CA bushings could have caused this? I measured the gap between that part of the tire, which is at its widest part, and the shock tower and the right side matches the left side exactly, at least as exact as the knuckle of my left hands middle finger is.

Any thoughts most appreciated.

Thanks,
