    Question Suspension arms?

    Been trying to find some reasonably priced ones for mine, cheapest are 75 quid each off Partsforvolvo, but it says this and don't know what it means, so if anyone can help?


    'There are 2 different types of lower suspension arm for the C70, and this is the 'alter 2' style'

    Is this mine?

    Aye, I will do cheers, was just wondering.

    Not sure either, if the pre 2000 are the same as the post 2000 - did they change anything on the suspension setup apart from mods engine? as there are a pair for sale for dirt cheap on Ebay.

    I know I have S70 suspension listed as upto 2000, but would be nice if they were the same on these to - save a packet.

    The only advice I can give you is to go with genuine arms if you intend to keep the car. The price from FRF with discount doesn't come to a lot more. Using "OEM" parts for suspension has cost me a lot more overall than if I'd just gone with the originals the first time.
