Re: 98 V70 trailer: I am back!

1500 pounds is fine for an unbraked trailer.

I would leave factor parking brake in as it’s good to have a way to brake a loose trailer to stop it doing the merry free trailer ride!

Re: Permanent removal of rear seat, 2006 Volvo XC70

There are some pretty sketchy parts at RA but the value is there for some.

Watch those fitment charts. Those drive axles are not going to fit 1999 at all despite the years listed. That’s the transition for m22 nut to m8 bolt for axle holding

Re: '97 850 Transmission fluid?

Jimmy57 , a Volvo guru who is actually a Volvo tech, has blessed Dexron VI for p80s so I use it in all my AT p80 cars.

The Valvoline Maxlife product is affordable and I’ve had good history with it
