    Help Needed!

    My friend has a 2003 volvo S80 Turbo that she broke a chunk of the knuckle off that connects to the balljoint and front left tie rod end. Its an awd with cv axles in the front. It looks like she is going to need a new driver side knuckle and Im gonna fix it for her.

    Know of any good places online that would ship em here quickly?

    If someone does find the part see if I can get it as cheap as possible. Would like to stay in 100$ range but if higher then ok.
    I am going to oreillys tommorow to check and see if they have it or can get one

    Help is greatly appreciated. (Note the she factor in this)
    Thanks

    Ive got a good online manual to look at while repairing. Seems to be very similar to my trucks knuckle assembly so I wont have to do worry about it too much. It says to use new bolts and nuts when installing the new knuckle, should I be safe and go ahead and order those too?

    Yes. Better to be safe than sorry. Damnit--well, I can't use that saying cause you are pretty damn SORRY.
    Do what the manual says. Bolts and nuts are cheap.
