Selling my genuine Volvo delta link tool. Part number 9995497. Its in like new conditon and has only been used to remove and install two delta links.

I will sell it for $100 and the buyer pays shipping from 92536. Local pickup in southern CA would also be fine with me, I'm in the San Diego area ...

I am trying to find a definitive answer amd not having much luck so far.

Does anyone know if a manual transmission s70 can be flat towed behind an rv with all 4 wheels on the ground? Since the manual transmission is splash lubricated my assumption would be yes it can be. However ive only found one ...

Never dropped the tranny via subfrane even though ive read its quicker. For me since ive pulled these motors before once or twice i dont think it would be quicker plus less rime under the car is better in opinion. Not much to pulling it right out the topside really.

Unfortunately it wasnt my first time pulling a t5 motor.

My m56 donor was another 98 s70 t5m i happened to randomly find local (i paid 300 bucks for the entire car ...

Good call. I will absolutely do that. I would be pretty bummed if i got it swapped out and tested, only to hsve a like event or failure once i begin to work into high boost . One nice aspect of it all is the replacement motor has 85k less miles on it. Just sucks loosing ao much known good state info ...

Well the verdict is in 2 spun rod bearings and damaged crank journals. The sound was rod knock and not the gentle kind. . Motor 90% pulled already.

Sourced a motor locally and will be picking it up along with my new parts car tomorrow. This brings my yard count to 2 parts p80 cars plus my good one ...
