the ONE thing you MUST replace on your volvo 740/940

[@massivesaint1415]

Someone hook up this man with some bright shop lights, he deserves it💪🏻

[@niksplace5077]

Just did these bushings a few days ago, old ones were so crusty, IPD poly’s made a huge difference!

[@Elswalbe]

Mine were two metal cones on either side, lol. the inner cone was frozen to the center control arm, just used a chisel to surprise it.

[@Elswalbe]

if yours are that crusty, might as well scotch brite crotch scotch the race a bit so it's smooth, then the poly won't be sitting in a turd bucket.

[@motomike2252]

Hey just found your channel after buying my first Volvo, a 95 940. Fellow BC boy in Victoria.

[@JBFLY89]

Thank you so much. You are so inspiring. I've been putting off dealing w/ my loose front end for months now. You make it look so easy and make caring for my old wagon feel so much more manageable and fun. Absolutely love the show. You are helping so many people and having a great time doing it.

[@akboomer2837]

I changed mine when you made your last video on this issue and it really does make all the difference. Feels like the rotors are warped when you brake.

[@TL243]

I dig the drift gravy but damn. The maintenance vids are awesome. Keep the killer Volvo’s on the road!!

[@KABOBkabob]

Ok I initially thought I had very warped rotors but this just solved my braking wheel wobble! The differentiating factor was my brake wobble only occurred when the stay arm shifted from the play, as opposed to consistent rotor warp. Cheers DnL!!!! I'm straight up dunked in gravy rn

[@customer5236]

I did replaced these bushings taking advice from your earlier video, thank you. Btw the seller advised that polyurethane bushings should tightened to the same torque as normal.

[@sangwonlee7705]

Just finished buying and driving my new 740 turno home. Gonna go outside and kick my wheels and then maybe order some bushings from your guys.

[@goponesgarage]

Great video boss. I'm planning on grabbing myself a 740 at some point to replace my V70, and I'll be sure to keep this in mind for that! You're a Saint.

[@coopervulk2841]

Just got my first car which is a 760 turbo intercooler and I’m glad I saw this cause my bushings were fucked

[@Elswalbe]

YO I Just accomplished this upgrade because of your cam compare video!!! I love both of the upgrades so much!

[@Elswalbe]

The iPD was a wonderful upgrade, I'm still running the td04 and doing all the stage 0-1 mods, just haven't started running boost up yet. I'm running a standalone (SpeedyEFI) and tuning as I go. I'm getting ready to increase boost upto about 12 until I do all the work into swapping to a quick spooling cooler turbo for 18 psi~.

[@scrappydogfinance8434]

When you think about it... the back bushing which mounts to the Frame Rails is where you need to avoid squishiness/flex. The front bushings are actually very thin already. They do not flex too much. Its the rear ones that deteriorate the most... Hence the Update Kit that IPD Sells for $166/pair which includes new rod and Poly Bushings up front and New Pocketed Bushings in the Rear

[@renegarcia4522]

Ok now I now why my brakeing probably sucks

[@GAMEKILLERG]

This is probably exactly my problem! I have Ocean Mk18's on my car and after that it became worse when I brake. The steering wheel shakes and you hear this strange noise coming from the suspension. Thanks for this video!

[@jackmurphy7080]

I need to replace the bushings on all 3 my 940 but I just can’t be bothered

[@jfv65]

What if i told you it is incredibly easy to improve front end grip when you are in there anyway to change those stay bushings. Buy 4 large rivets of about 1mm thickness that fit over the end stub of the stay. Put 2 on each stay before you put on those new bushings. Congratulations, you just increased caster by adding those rivets that push the control arms 2mm forward. Main benefit: less understeer in tight cornering. Side effect: slightly more stable when running straight ahead. Why didn't Volvo do this geometry straight from the factory? Because they engineered the car for safety. Undesteer is safe because when it happens most drivers panic and get off throttle. And that is exactly the correct reaction from the perspective of safety.

[@billpetersen298]

jfv65 sounds like a good suggestion. I need a picture of where?

[@dylanmurphy3195]

Shut up jack about ur 3 940s and don’t forget ur 2 340s and 1 360 mr I’ve got a load of Volvos shut up

[@Skaaaq]

@@jfv65 do you mean washer instead of rivets?

[@MrAsddasdasda]

@@jfv65 caster doesn't affect cornering grip, camber does tho

[@riverjames4234]

To stop blowing heater cores switch to a 240 coolant expansion cap has less pressure and worked for me.

[@goobiemcdaniel]

i bought a set of ipd strut rod bushings for my 740, and I did it because you said in one of your videos its a good idea to, so I did without looking at them, I figured since the car is such high mileage i might as well but when I looked at them they were almost brand new oe bushings. waste of 20 bucks lol

[@oface4401]

Dude my parents had a 940 gl. It would splash gravy on everything that it would boat flap around!

[@smiIingman]

Hot damn ill have to check this on my 945 that i bought 2 weeks ago Update: Still havent checked it, but damn it works good.

[@scrappydogfinance8434]

What about the Rear Bushing?

[@noelbostrom5834]

I don’t think this is as usual in Sweden beacuse we have a sort of inspection every year that you have to do to be able to drive the car legally on the road. And the inspection is very strict.

[@algot2009]

Most of them don't care about this bushing in Sweden because it's not that dangerous

[@noelbostrom5834]

algot2009 oh really? Doesn’t look to good tho

[@asiakunnossa666]

Same thing here in Finland, if those bushings go bad you actually can't pass the inspection most times, depends on the engineer doing it. I have a 240 wagon and holy shit it needs work everytime i need to inspect it :D but then again it gets driven pretty hard

[@RetoTube]

Good video man i do have the same problem, i have the parts already just they need to be installed. Thank you.

[@bigwebsite727]

[@brodystott4518]

Hey my 740 has broken the rear left axle and I have seen people saying there the same as a 940 axle is this true?

[@ethixhiggins5059]

Can you just get the strut rod itself and it comes with bushings?

[@meatballs9127]

now i have to go and cheack on my 960

You should bulid a drag Volvo so you have the offroad drift and drag volvos

Here I was about to drop $$$ on new rotors all around thinking my shit was warped to fuck. Just ordered this instead, we'll see if this was the issue in a week

[@adamblanco5028]

do you know if there’s any body kits for the 940 s?

[@maacpetzol2205]

Is this the same for a 960?

[@TheSunnyGun]

Mine on my 740 wagon were toast they crumbled to pieces when I took them out to replace them

[@MinxInSinx]

Did they make a wagon *945 intercooler? Or just in sedans?

[@t16205]

All 940 turbos came with a intercooler

[@billpetersen298]

Colton, trade you clean 940 bumpers for lightly damaged? And some bucks. Other stuff too.

Just put a T-pipe on the vacuum hose to the wastegate. Tis will cause it to delay the opening of the wastegate untill 0,8bar of boost instead of 0,3bar that is original 😊 // a swedish volvo-guy 😉😅

Fun thing is that most in sweden dont even care about that and just cut all of the springs and just drive the Volvo untill its totaled😅 we have tooo many Volvo 7/940 so we just have fun with them and then complain about that there Are so little of them left and that other should take care of their volvos😂 (well im not the best at english so don’t judge me)😬

[@LocalAutist]

They went from costing 1000-2000 sek to over 30000 sek in under a year for a good example turbo because the a traktor rule change and literally more than half of the volvos in the country got sent to the junkyard the same winter

The IPD bushings are not what I expected from poly bushes. They are really soft. Not bad for road use, but definitely not an upgrade over stock.

You dont know what you are talking about. Everything is an upgrade over the stock bushings, esp poly bushes.
