850 subframe

Post by Jamesmoore850T5 »

Hi

Tldr: will an 850 non turbo subframe fit an 850 turbo

I need a new subframe for my 1996 Volvo 850 T5 manual, I’ve found one for sale but it’s from a 850 manual non turbo, will this fit ?

I’m presuming it will as the turbo/ exhuast won’t interfere or connect to the subframe ?

Thanks

Yes, the subframe is identical. I'd still go down the C70 route - per your other thread - however.

Would if I could.

The seller removed the item 1 day before the auction was up. Guess that’s eBay for you ...
