alot more work when you have to be moving the camera. i feel your pain. when i do videos, it gets frustrating. but you want to make sure your getting the shot. alot of work to drop that sub frame.
This was useful!! I have purchased the parts but couldnˋt figure out how to get access to the bolts. -Wondered if I really had to loosen the frame under the engine. Now I know...
I have the subframe removed currently, broken control arm bent it. You know where I should look for the front impact sensor? The impact sensor is a one time sensor and needs replaced for sure? Is a simple continuity test applicable? IE it's either open or closed to indicate good or bad?
Nice video and effort to film it. After all that work was it worth it? Any particular reason why you did it? I’m looking to replace my subframe bushings and was thinking of doing the sway bar while I had the frame disconnected
@@Bigtime_mcalpine great vid, i'm exploring this project. this is valuable feedback. thanks. my rear isn't in need of service yet, and this comment has pushed subframe bushes and front sway bar replacement until (at least) the next front suspension service interval for me. cheers!
Hi I've started upgrading my sway bar my V70 is right hand drive but I had a crash shield around the Steering rack But what's the torque specs of the 4 sway bar bolts Thanks in advance
HELP. 2004 XC70 Front impact sensors. * Please tell me the location. * This car is making an ass out of me. Want to test to see if it latches closed or resets to open after a dash airbag went off. Sending out SRS Module to get reset. Doesn't seem to have wiring to detect if airbag is bad or impact sensor is bad. NOt positive though. But where the hell are they located? I have bumper and grill off and removed front right headlight. Following all cables, cannot find impact sensor. Wonder what color the connector is. HELP
@@hajileserpud9539 You right. Actually found the Volvo Haynes Manual. Don't know how I couldn't find it before when I first got my 04 XC70 off ebay for $1500. Hardback even !! Thanks for the tip to get me lookiing again.
How did your oil pan hold up? I wanna do this job so bad but I'm so afraid of cracking my oil pan by holding it up with Jack lol. I think it would be OK but so many people have told me never support engine with jack under oil pan lo l
I’ve held up the engine on multiple occasions via the oil pan and never an issue. Just make sure your piece of wood spans the whole pan and you will be fine.
Thanks for response I'm just gonna replace my sway bar with the oem part. I'm only doing it because my bushings are shot which is leading to clunking noises. I wish I could just replace the bushings but I'm told they're vulcanized to the sway bar so I have to get the whole sway bar
@@willmill409 job isn’t too bad just take your time. Those subframe bolts are on there f’ing tight. Be sure to have an extension to your breaker bar handy.

Thanks for doing this man. Helpful! Just finished mine. Even with the aid of my two post lift it’s a PITA
If anyone does this make sure to replace the lower engine mounts. Might as well do them while your under there
Thanks for uploading. Lots of good info here, I've worked on Hondas all my life, now learning how to fix other brands

I just drilled holes in the floor to get at the sway bar bolts. I have 265K miles, so im not worried.
@jm-ve8ry please share more ....
Thanks!!!! This video will be very helpful for me, I have to remove the anti roll bar in a XC70, I'll try to follow your steps. Thank you very much.
I know from experience what a hard job that is. So cramped along the back of that subframe.

I wouldn’t bother. Rear made a difference but front not so much.

If the sway bar bushings are shot like mine in my 08 xc90 they will cause alot of front end noise
Did you replace the subframe bolts those are torque to yield ?

Very good Job. Next time i do the same at my V70R-AWD. Regards from 🇦🇹.
Nice work, I struggled with the same job so I know your pain.
What is the reason to replace it?
Thank you very much, great help !

Sorry @justin can’t help you. Maybe try looking in the parts diagrams on volvopartswebstore.
Get a Haynes Manual dude... That help me with lots of repairs on my 04 XC70

Not sure I’d bother with the front upgrade. The rear made a big difference though.

This is absolutely ridiculous for 2 sway bar bushings to be replaced….
