►Are you feeling slop from the subframe of your Volvo? The subframe on Volvo P80 and P2 chassis has four rubber bushings that can develop wear over time, causing you to feel general looseness while driving. Replacing the bushings themselves can be a pretty intensive job, so if you are looking for a quick fix tighten things back up, a good alternative are these subframe inserts from Powerflex.
In this DIY, Jacob Maller takes you through the steps needed to get the job done quickly. This is a fairly easy job consisting of only needing to remove the main subframe bolt and the two bolts that hold the rear bracket on, after which you can slide the insert right into the voids of the bushing. This can be done in your driveway with a minimal amount of tools.

are there any options like this for the p1 c30? or could p2 bushing inserts be used on a c30?
I did this years ago and it made zero difference=waste of money. Just replace the bushings
You can replace these while on the car WITHOUT dropping the sub-frame, I've done it twice on the V70, took about 15 minutes a corner and used ZERO heat/torch, once for factory rubber bushings and then delrin bushings the second time. IMHO if you want to use these PU bushings and want tighter steering and feedback just go with the delrin bushings.
Same voice and style as PRIMUS bassist hehe cheers very nice video !!
I wouldnt bother buying them. Just replace them with solid mounts.

Where can i buy it?
Any recommendations, suggestions on a special removal and press tool for the rear/rear metal bushings? Model is 2002 S60 T5? Greatly appreciated.
