I just had all the major bushes replaced with the new ones i found ( http://volvo480.dragons.org.uk/forum/vi ... hp?t=10224 ) and the improvement is amazing. before it rocked like a boat but now it's steady as a rock.
Now i finally know why everyone is so happy with the 480's handling and i agree.
New Bushes = Big Improvement

Are you going to keep it ??
i got them here https://www.partsforvolvosonline.com/default.php but i had to e-mail them so that they order them from the swedish supplier as they do not have them in stock . it took about 2 - 3 weeks tfor them to arrive.

Well amidst everything, i wish to keep her as a project car as i haven't actually been offered anything decent. For a mere Lm700 I'd rather keep her. She actually runs very well after all the fixes i've done to her here and there. Bottom line, if i end up keeping her i will def change her shocks and bushes
PS. i got a quote for springs De carbon for Lm124 for all four ...
