I've 236k on my origenal shocks. Still fine. Never had to change volvo subframe bushes ever. Had to do plenty of wishbone bushes though. If its not broken don't try to convince yourself it is

Actually i was just thinking about asking how long these subframe bushes last
so.. maybe theres no need at all..
me thinks ill get these ball joints done asap- that is next weekend, weather permitting
and then i will give myself few months to think: do i want to do the rest..
btw..
two things that ..
well.. i feel uneasy about one and literally scared of another
uneasy one: taking hubs out (i understand detaching them from shock)
something tells me that i`d loose camber setting on it. i`d rather avoid trip for traction if i can.
second..
i cant logically explain..
i dont trust any axle stands
they all look too soft for me, i`m literally afraid to crawl underneath and forget about me exerting any bigger force on any spanner when i`m underneath..
somehow i feel safer with few concrete blocks and a wooden board between these and the car..
and even then uneasy..
