Ball Joints

Does anyone know a good website or place to purchase ball joints and tie rods for a 99 s70? Also, is it a fairly easy installation or am i better off going to a mechanic? thanks.

Don't get aftermarket ball joints, or tie rods.

Get Volvo parts at Darrell Waltrip Volvo in TN. Their pricing is just about what you pay at Groton for aftermarket. I know the 98's have the ball joint in the control arm and you have to replace the entire arm. Maybe the 99's and above have a separate ball joint.

Other aftermarket websites for Volvo's are:
