Absolute Bitch Getter

Nah, its just that brace in the middle of the drive shaft hump. I'm gonna cut some out.

its youve got a 2 piece driveshaft, its pinion angle shit making noise....now, on the other hand, my one piece DS does rub on the tunnel....even after I spent about an hour in there w the air hammer....

oh yeah, you cant just 'cut the bumpstops' in the front to go lower....they are built into the strut...time for short struts...hint: my ACDelco struts for a Saab 900 actually match up pretty good with 300lb springs....

Yeah, it's just hitting the top of the tunnel. I'll see what a 5lb sledge can do. If not, a angle grinder. I'm taking it from Philly to killington this weekend

And yeah, they come out. My friend took his out, and cut em haha.


Thanks for all the commentz guyzzzzzzz

if the DS is actually hitting the tunnel with a 2 piece shaft, then you have other issues than just needing to clearance is....I tucked wheel before I rubbed the tunnel with a 2 piece.

unless you have koni's...no, they dont

It's a 1pc shaft

why do you have a 1 piece DS with an M4x trans? (thats what your shifter looks like in the picture through the window...

so you have konis then?


oh yeah, youre gonna need to do some real work in there (sledge might not be enough)....air hammer worked pretty good, but I do see myself getting/making a new trans tunnel in the future (might just buy a Chris Alston piece and weld it in....)

I have a m47, I just like the 4 spd shift knob better. And its badass

But yeah

[rvolvor]

why joo got a 1 piece DS with an m47?

anyways...heres what I had to do

chopped a small section out of that up and over piece
cut down the seatbelt latch bolt
air hammer to the whole back half of the tunnel and moved it all out 3/8-1/2"

it still rubs on hard accel in 1st and sometimes 2nd

[rvolvor]

oh yeah....got a welder? pull your panhard and chop 1/2" or so out of it to cent the DS back up in the tunnel

[Nicolaus Pro]

truee. So thats the whole point of that piece? Just to cover the seatbelt bolt? lolz I dont have backseats

I think its structural to the car

....easy solution, swap 2 piece DS back in, shorten panhard

No, thats the hard solution. Easy solution is to cut or bang it out, and worry about the effects later

That's kinda the motto with this car.
Dude-"How many coils do you wanna cut off the rear"
me-"like a half"
Dude-"but thats facing towards to car on the coil, and would be a bitch. Just cut a whole coil. Dont be a bitch"
me-"ok"

Volvos always get bitches... its just fact... they cant resist the safety and the idea of not having to buy a different car when they have kids... bitches love that. haha

One of the funniest things I've read.
