Volvo have developed two traction mountings to facilitate aligning in the event of damage to the front frame member.

Left-hand side: 999 5798 

Right-hand side: 999 5797 

The tools are designed so that they can be forced into the end of a very badly deformed member which ensures a good mounting without the risk of deformation.
