Strut Brace - easy and well worthwhile 850 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be V70driver on  Thu Jan 22 16:12 CST 2009 [RELATED]

I installed a stock Volvo brace on my 99 V70 when it was new. Because the car was new and tight, I can't say for sure that it made the steering feel any different, but it was a modest cost addition. A number of mechanics said they had never seen a brace on a Volvo. IPD makes a stiffening rod to go across the rear under the deck, but I've never heard of anyone who installed one or could comment on it.
