96 850 Compatibility of parts 850's to 98's?

The body is the same from the drivers door back. '98 was the first year of the S/V designation.

Not really. The body is very similar but has several changes that you wouldn't notice at a glance. For example the windshields are different between S/V70 and 850, the crash structure has small changes and so on.

1996 was the first year for the S/V70 which is model year 1997, in the US the first year for S/V70 is 1997 as model year 1998.

ON a FWD, brakes and fuel pump are all the same 94-00.

So the '93 brake calipers are unique to that year? Hmm.

Actually I just never say about 93 parts because I just don't know all the quirks. They may be exactly the same, e.g. even though the hubs are different the brakes may be the same. Try Ben850 he would know, or a vendor web site as suggested.
