This OE-grade front radiator support (front end frame) is a critical structural component exclusively engineered for select Volvo models, including S40 (04-), V50, and C30. It fully complies with Volvo’s original manufacturing standards for structural strength, dimensional precision, and mounting compatibility. Installed at the front of the vehicle’s chassis, it serves as the core "backbone" for the front-end system—securing key components while maintaining the structural integrity of the vehicle’s front section.
| Applicable Models | Applicable Years |
| S40 (04-) | 2004-2012 |
| V50 | 2004-2012 |
| C30 | 2007–2013 (including 2011A) |
Installation & Usage Notes
Professional installation is strongly recommended for this component, as it requires precise alignment with the vehicle’s chassis and front-end parts. Before installation, confirm the support matches the vehicle’s model and year (e.g., S40 (04-) vs. C30) and check for cracks, rust, or structural damage—do not use defective units. During installation, align the support with the factory-mounted holes on the chassis and torque all fasteners to Volvo’s specified values (typically 35–45 N·m for chassis bolts) to ensure secure attachment. After installation, verify the alignment of the radiator, headlights, and bumper to avoid gaps or misfits. For maintenance, inspect the support annually for rust (especially in areas exposed to road salt) or loose bolts; replace it immediately if structural deformation or severe corrosion occurs, as a compromised support may fail to secure front-end components, posing safety risks. Avoid using non-OE hardware or modifying the support, as this can weaken its structural strength.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How to determine if the bumper bracket needs replacement?
A: Signs of a failing bumper bracket include visible damage or deformation, misaligned bumper panels, unusual noises from the front end, or if the bumper appears loose or sagging on one side.
Q: What should be paid attention to when replacing the bumper bracket?
A: For optimal results, we recommend professional installation. Key considerations include ensuring proper alignment of all mounting points, checking for additional damaged components, and verifying all fasteners are properly torqued to specification.
