1996 Volvo 855 awdLooking to fit ipd antiroll bar, just wondered if anyone knows if there is any major difference between the v70 AWD and 850 AWD antiroll bar, i know there are different carriers but is the bar different on v70's, just wanna be sure it fits before i fork out, many squids,, it says, To Fit- Volvo S70, V70 Series, AWD & X-Country, 1996 up to 2000, 4-Wheel Drive Cars.
25mm Front / 22mm Rear
my car is in that age range and is AWD but is an 850,
i dont think there is any point asking pfv cos i dont see them as the type of peeps to know, dealing with parts rather than the application of them.
any idea's volvo fans???

Thanked 2,582 Times in 2,051 PostsI think the front ARB is the same on 850s and v70s (well, the latter 850s which have the sealed bushes).
According to the info I have there are two rear ARBs the v70 awd uses, one is the same P/N as our 850 awds and coloured yellow, and the other is coloured red. I'm guessing the red one is fitted to the lowered V70R awd and is uprated, but both should be the same fitting.
So really the arb kit you're looking at should fit.1996 Olive Green 850 AWD - Follow the Project - Forged rods, 19T, big blue injectors, 960 TB, 3.25" MAF, Ostrich, 608 binary, arduino data display, active exhaust control with Focus RS tips, 320mm front brake conversion.

Out of interest are you buying new from the USA, and how much is the shipping it must be a fortune, remember import tax when it hits the UK if you are.

Thanked 2,582 Times in 2,051 PostsI think the cat should be fine, as its used on the V70 T5 with the 16T on anyway.
