seriously considering pulling the angle gear and/or dropping the subframe.
Didn't you say you bought the line on amazon.?
Yes, here is the line I bought on Amazon for my 2002 S60 2.4t FWD:
Sunsong 3402949 Power Steering... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073XM2F6B

So far no leaks. I can’t speak to how AWD impacts access to the rack. Connection was on driver side rear of my rack. Mine definitely did not require dropping down the subframe. I did remove a shield that was below the cat as it was just in the way and only four bolts and a few clips. I also bent up a shield that was across the rack to aid in line routing removal/ replacement.

Great time to replace that rear motor mount also…I had the parts but not the proper tools to do that job.
08 S602.5T/05 XC902.5T/02 S602.4T
08 C702.5T (sold)
05 S402.4i (RIP, timing belt failure)
The non-Swedes:
25 Mazda MX-5 / 17 Frontier Pro-4X / 17 Ford Focus
17 R1200GS / 15 Versys 1000 / 11 DR-Z400S

Not a great photo but gives an idea of the access laying under the car. 1/2” crows foot socket with extension and some contortions and it is doable.

No, did not request them. Not sure there is a way to ask for them ahead of the order. Mine came is a huge box with no caps on the ends…one end poking through the box. Fortunately not dinged or gouged so went with it.
