►The front control arms on Volvo's XC90 are responsible for controlling the movement of the suspension while going down the road. The bushings installed in the arms help control vibration and harshness but will lead to a sloppy and vague ride when worn. The suspension also uses a ball joint on each side to help with control. You'll hear the worn joints as they clunk and knock over bumps and through corners. Completely ripped bushings will lead to dangerous driving conditions, so be proactive about your control arm and ball joint replacement.

The standard replacement interval for these parts comes around 80-100,000 miles after installation, but results will vary. Rough terrain and aggressive driving will shorten their life. Luckily, the XC90 is one of the more popular Volvos around, so we've put together an entire front suspension refresh kit to help you completely revamp your SUV's ride. Included with the fresh control arms and ball joints are new tie rods, struts, strut mounts, and other goodies, all covered by our Lifetime Replacement Guarantee.

Follow along as Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, takes you through a front control arm and ball joint replacement on a Volvo XC90 V8.
