Long story short I messed up the transverse arm suspension on my 850 trying to replace the transverse arm alignment mounts.I have a 00' V70R AWD with a good rear suspension. Soo would the V70R suspension be a bolt on swap to the 850 or will excessive mods be required like welding? If its a bolt on swap i'd save me trips to scrapyards tracking down an 850.

The AWD version is an entirely different animal. You would be better off trying to forge a new trailing arm from an ingot than to try to modify an AWD suspension to fit a FWD car.
