    S40 poly bushes?

    I want to uprate all the bushes on my S40 T4, I heard that some pre 97 FTO bushes will fit and Evo 4-7 bushes can be used for the engine/gearbox mounting bushes?

    Just wanting to know if anyone has done this and which bushes from what Mitsubishi will work.

    ...Thanks for that link Chris. Il see how much the whole lot costs. Il keep you uptodate Dave.

    I dont understand why companies such as Superflex and Powerflex just dont list the S40, if the Mitsubishi already fit surely its less work for them.

    Not really....they make them for the largest market...since the S40 is basically a Mitsubishi Charisma in butch bitch form then a lot of the components are shared but the Volvo is not exactly a tuners paradise

    Can I assume that the 2001 v40 1.9d sport has the same bushes?
