A N D R E S O U R C E S
There is a growing enthusiasm for Volvos and PERFORMANCE PARTS for older Volvos. Many small producers of custom parts have come and gone over the years. Most suppliers do not survive very long if their products don't sell.
So if you want to see nice products available in the future like I do, please support these suppliers below.
| If
you know of an independent producer of Volvo parts like those shown below or other
inventive
devices that a Volvo owner would want,
Dave's Volvo Page will be happy to feature it here for FREE. Please email: CONTACT |
| MORE OLD OR VINTAGE PARTS RESOURCES INFO A good method to determine if a vintage Volvo part is still available somewhere is to first look it up in gcp.se and find the part number. After you find the part number, you can look that up and see if it's available. Do not always go by information from a US Volvo dealer or volvopartswebstore.com or any of the online catalogs in the US for actual part availability, since sometimes they will say the part is NO LONGER AVAILABLE. I many instances they are wrong. Also online in Sweden you can try CVI Automotive or VP Auto Parts or in Germany try Skandix.com. Often you can find parts there that are not usually found in the U.S. |

VOLVO STEERING RACKS SORRY. THIS BUSINESS HAS CLOSED PERMANENTLY.
Jorgen Automotive Corporation has been offering high quality remanufactured Volvo rack and pinion steering racks as long as I can remember. http://www.jorgenauto.com/rack-pinion/volvo.html   Volvo
240 Power Steering Rack Identification Info: Volvo TP
31579/1 (1990 publication) shows both CAM
and ZF power steering units being used in 240s from 1976 thru
1990. CAM units were used
exclusively in 1975. CAM units had four different types,
and ZF had two different
types. In most cases, a CAM (or TRW) rack can be identified
by the rubber boot outer end that will narrow down to a small opening where it's clamped to
the tie rod. With a ZF
rack, the rubber boot outer end normally clamps to a rubber bushing on the tie rod.
This information is reliant on parts being original. Keep in mind that
different boots/tie rods may have been installed over the years. <<< Here is a ZF rack where a "ZF" mark can be seen after cleaning. More info here: http://people.physics.anu.edu.au/~amh110/STEERING/steering_camgears_trw.htm If you can help improve this info, please email. |
