Here are a few pictures of the Swedish Ops universal rear end assemblies.. These rear ends will bolt directly to your Early or Late P1800/Amazon with no body mods or cutting. You also have the widest range of gear ratio and traction options possible, along with 11 inch rear disc brakes which is upgradable to a 12.19 inch, 13 inch, and 14 inch option.
It is fully capable of using your factory coil spring, along with the factory style shocks, but has a rear coil over conversion option for a wider range of adjustment.. With the coil over conversion option, you have a wide range of Spring Rate Options and Coil Over Ride Dampening and Rebound Control settings for precision set up to your preferences.. Also with the coil over conversion option, you have multiple Quick Adjust Ride Hieght Positions from stock to 5 inch drop capability, while allowing the rear axle to sit in the proper alignment position at any range. This constant axle postion is possible due to the Aluminum Adjustable Rear Trailing Arms/Panhard Bar, because it allows a quick turnbuckle style adjustment to set the rear ends postion from right to left, front to rear, along with pinion angle.
The rear coil over conversion kit is made to work with the factory Volvo rear axle assemblies also..It is all a direct bolt on with no cutting. The previous owner cut the spring pockets on the outside, so that is not necessary at all.. In order to get the full adjustablility of the rear end, and proper alignment for lowered car, you have to use the Adjustable Aluminum Trailing Arms/Panhard Bar.
If you look at the pictures also, you will see that 3 different possible mounting position for the Panhard bar on the rear axle, this allows you to keep the optimum bar postion in all the ride height positions.
Here are some pics of some of the quick adjustability features this axle assembly comes standard with. 3 different mount postions for the Rear Panhard Bar, and 2 rear axle drop for the Coil Over option.. There is another 3 inch of adjustment for the rear ride hieght built onto the Coil Over Mounting cross bar that give you a range of adjustment from stock to a 5 inch drop at 1 inch increments.
