Yea, I couldn't find any thin wall tubing at work that would fit so I used some thin sheet stock we use for shimming pumps. Didn't work all that well so I 'canned them and put the old Boge Turbo Gas rears on, rides smoother empty but kind of boumcy with a heavy load on the overload springs ('84 245). I liked the Touring setup at first as I like a stiffer ride than most, I just got tired of fighting them, I'll stick to real Bilsteins from now on, with Boge on the "temporary" Volvos that I'm only planning to keep for 4-5 years.
