Rear End Work…Brakes, wheel bearings, panhard/traction rod, shock absorbers and grease.

This month I replaced the front and rear brake components on the Volvo 240 wagon and bled the brake lines.

The wheel bearings needed replacing also. They were making noises over small bumps in the road.

Also, installed shock absorbers and a panhard/track rod.

The parts list is: New rotors or discs, pads for main brakes and parking/emergency brake shoes, all associated hardware, panhard/track rod, shock absorbers, wheel bearings installed/pressed on at a local shop, and grease.

Last month, new rear trailing arm bushings were installed.

Here are photos of the rear end work thus far. I followed the Bentley manual for this.

Hope this helps you when you do it yourself.
