lower control arm diagram?
 
does anyone have a diagram of the lower control arm for a 96 850 wagon? my car makes a clicking noise when i turn left. thought it was the cv joint, might still be i dont know, but i think i ruined the ball joint. does anyone have any suggestions of what could be causeing the clicking, and or have a diagram of the whole thing.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

I just replaced the Control Arms on my 97 R. Got them from Darrell Waltrip Volvo for $100 each plus $10 shipping. Great price for OEM and I have heard you definitely want OEM.

whats oem mean? and why should i go with that compared to, lets say an apa brand control arm? oh yeah, and the steelers suck, seahawks totally shoulda won the 2005 sb!!!

OEM is "original equipment manufacturer". Its what came on the car from the factory. OEM parts usually fit better and last longer than aftermarket parts. When changing something as important as a control arm, you usually do not want to get anything besides OEM.

Would you like some cheese with your Whine?

Just like Bettis said Shoulda Coulda Woulda.

Have you watched how poorly the Seachickens managed the clock at the end of the first half? Have you noticed how many balls their receivers dropped? The Steelers played terrible in that game, but better than the other team and won! Bothers me quite a bit when the fatass coach goes on and on whining. He blew at the end of the 1st half.

yeah yeah, it woulda been nice to know that we were playin two teams in one game though.

steelers+refs vs seahawks. the only reason they won is because of all the crappy politics along with the game, ohh poor bettis didnt have a superbowl ring yet, we better give him one the year he retires, lol.

oh yeah and dont forget ben frothlessbeer, hes such a putzy oaf. he shoulda died in the motorcycle accident and got what he deserves for bein stupid.

its all good though, i dont think jim mora is gunna mess around like holmgren did, if hes anything like his dad, and i really like how he handled the situation down in atlanta.

Anybody who says they wish somebody would have died lets me know what kind of person I am dealing with. I will make no further comment.

ITs good to get lost once a while and explore new areas....LOL

JimKW 05-19-2009 11:07 AM

Think I will keep this thread sidetracked and go in a different direction. My wife and I love to go out on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon and get lost and explore new areas. We get on back country roads (did this quite a bit when I had the Porsche) and just get lost and use the position of the sun to let us know what general direction we are going. As soon as it starts getting dark we look for a major road though. She never reads this board so I can say this, she has a way better sense of direction than I do. Don't tellher I said that.

i have to admit, we also do this almost every saturday just hitting turnie glacial deposit roads and such (live in wisconsin). its a great time to just go driving through the woods with fresh non polluted air coming through the windows

I actually love driving around and getting lost in the middle of no where. I am actually going to be taking around a 500 mile road trip to drive down rt. 78 in Ohio. It is supposed to be the best driving road in Ohio. It is like a 100 mile stretch of road that starts around Athens and ends up pretty close to the border of West Virginia. This will be the first long trip I will take in the Volvo, and this is my first 5 speed so it should be a fun trip.

eEuroparts.com have great Diagram images of many of the subsystems of the car along with numbered parts lists.
