Things are heating up! All the parts have arrived to swap the Ford 8.8 into the Volvo! (Oh yeah I got a Ford 8.8 for the Volvo...)We got QA1 double adjustable coilovers, a bunch of BEEFY heim joints, misalignment spacers, and some 1/4" brackets that my friend Dan cut out on his plasma table. Thats right, no angle grinder/drill made brackets this time lol. I wanted everything to be perfect. I already stripped and cleaned the Ford 8.8. Tomorrow I'll weld the brackets on and start fabricating the arms that'll attach it to the chassis! By the end of the week I think this thing will be on the ground with the new axle.

Besides being able to handle a large load, why did you keep a solid axel instead of going with double wishbone or doing a multi link or some other suspension?

Because those setups have cv's from the diff, it's weaker. Solid axle much better for racing since they are strong diffs.
