That and some copper grease inside the clamp and on the lower tip of the front shock.
Note the Hemmerite satin black pain I applied on previously rusty components such as the upright lower hub/clamp assembly
Also a quick note about the lower shock clamp pinch bolt... In hindsight I wish I ordered 2 new pinch bolts from Volvo as mine were quite corroded. I had to wire brush them both and then soak them in PlusGas for a while to take the edge off. Also worth remembering to apply a bit of medium strength locking fluid on the end of these, as per factory speck.

Nice job !

How was the test drive?
