Rear bumper hangers

[Blackdog]

Has anyone had to replace their bumper hangers?

The nearside one on the V70 has corroded through.

Is it an easy job and are the parts readily available?

Yes its a common problem to have th rotted I'm sure volvo still sells them or you can make your own with some steel plate

I got some from Volvo couple of years ago. Also replaced the bolts attaching them to the car as they had to be cut off due to being so rusty.

I did my rear bumper brackets on my R last year. Easy job and I have the new bolts if you want those as I refitted the old ones as they were OK. Got the brackets from Volvo though my local indy and I think they were reasonably priced.

Found this pic. The bolts that I reused were the long ones so I have a couple of new ones here.
