Since you have replaced a lot parts in the front end you might want to save yourself some time and check your tire balance and tire wear first.

Is the rack itself okay? A bad rack can cause some weird steering behavior. BTDT with my 240...:)

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I assumed steering coupler u-joints = steering shaft u-joints? I have owned many Volvos and other European cars and don’t recall hearing of that part. Both my 90 240 and 95 850 had steering shaft u-joint issues (which are prone to failure at high mileage without lubrication - we can all thank Volvo for not protecting them from the wrath of Mother Nature!).

Will I buy another Volvo??? We'll see....
