I finally broke down and purchased the complete arms (w/bushings already installed) from FCP Groton for our 98 S90. After seeing that so many folks here were using them and were satisfied; and, someone recently posted that they were Meyle or Mahle replacement parts from Germany. Add to that the low price... seems like a deal you can't pass up if you need to replace those rear lower control arm bushings on your 960/90 series.

Mine showed up today, one had a ScanTech/Sweden label, both said "Made in Taiwan". One arm had the rear bushing indexed properly, the other arm had the bushing index off by about 5-10 degrees, although I doubt will be a problem.

The bushing did had a metal sleeve around them and the P/N on the bushings were : VO 960, 9191537.

Just thought some of you would like to know.

You never know what you are going to get from FCP Groton unless you specifically ask for a particular manufacturer.

Those that got Mahle/Meyle parts got lucky.
