And well worth the effort!
Car feels solid now, - and not just when cornering.

[RGM200]

Totally agree the strut brace has made an immense difference to the handling of my car. Cant believe that Volvo didn't fit them as standard!

[Engineer]

Hi Adam, can you give me some more details/spec/postage etc on your brace. Cheers.

[Wobbly Dave]

Thought I might assist in this one...(in the shape/looks dept)

SB's are Volvo OEM parts.
Feet sit ontop of the suspension turrets using the nuts/bolts that hold the top mounts. V Easy to fit.

Adam, could you quote on a S40 T4 strut pls

[siamblue]

Try your nearest Volvo main dealer you will be pleasantly surprised.

Told em I would think about it

[Mrsmopp]

Thats way over the odds - most dealers are around the £75 mark (or so I thought)

Think someone is having a back hander there, thats a rip off I paid £52 inc Vat from a dealer, but it is who you know now wat you kow.

[volvotuning]

It's the same spec as the Volvo ones, because they are Volvo ones. We keep them in stock because many people buy them as a last minute purchase when having an upgrade of some sort.

he's after 1 for his S40 T4

[audimadmike]

Bought mine today from dealers, £64 + vat.
Nice bit of kit and a bargain for OEM part, stands out though being ali, makes the rest of the engine bay look a bit dull.
Can't wait to try out...hope it makes the difference you all say!

S40 strut braces cost an absolute fortune suppose volvo don't really sell as many so they cost more to make but still 150's abit steap,

I got mine at trade but it still cost me well over 100 quid

[Engineer]

Cheers all, thanks for info.

[fireclown]

[fireclown]

[fireclown]

oops didnt mean to post twice. sorry. oh no. doh . 3 times now. i'll shut up :B_steerin

[JUDGENINJA]

£75 for mine ... 850 and S/V70 fitment .... looks and feels good...

I ordered a strut brace from strutbracer.co.uk. It appears to have a kink i n the right place, its made by OMP, its red and shiny and it DONT FIT!

Mounting holes dont match the bolt locations and the kink doesn't go around the reservoir :>(

So it will have to go back - their reason is that its only for LHD cars. Odd. Adam says he can help though, no probs and the local Inchcape Volvo said they do not have one for the 850, though I am not convinced the guy knows what a strut brace actually is!
LOL - looking forward to getting it done at VT when I go for a suspension upgrade.

The part number is 9204180 its for the 850 and is called a spring strut.
Great value for genuine part, £64.47 less any discount, made of ally fits perfect.
