So guys where do we go just for the rear bar ? Any links ? Also who for the front bushes ? Any links for those ?

Front bushes I used these, I did read somewhere that the 850s had 3 different sized front sway bars, so obvs measure before ordering.

They look like this installed

And I used these little things to stop them from moving around

        Would be the same as my one then, lots of stuff on the US Volvo sites on how fun they are to install.

        Grinder, blowtorch and a sharp scraper.

        My original ones were in very poor shape, and this was alot cheaper then an aftermarket bar.

        I've Just read a 3 page thread on this and with the lock as well to stop the sideways movement , interesting. As the og ones are vulcanised this lock seems a good idea ?
