RE: Cheap Tyres
Hi James,
A while ago, I contacted Volvo directly about power steering and they were adamant that it had never been done , couldn't be done, shouldn't be done etc (the 'our designs are perfect and you're an idiot' mentality). I suspect you're right that PAS was available from the factory but it was totally denied. I supose in fairness, if you're involved with 30 grand motorcars on a daily basis, you're not going to spend much time researching 16 year old parts for a car worth 150 quid!
Now to a report on the new acquisition. The steering is beautiful! One finger lock to lock! It's a conventional power rack and at this stage suspect it's a standard 360 item. Anyway it's all coming off the car and I'll let everybody know the part numbers etc.
Don't worry about the engine mount, Thats the easy bit. The intercooler is the tricky bit and I have a brill solution. Photographs and destructions to follow shortly.
Best Regards James
Len
