Volvo V70 Station Wagon

I always take my springs off when I set the body height. A little rub is expected but that's how I set my height. Low as possible

I like your tip on setting them up without springs, I'm going to start doing that.

I used the Dinky divorce kit, the axle hits the motor mount without much travel. To do it over, I think using a custom chassis would have helped me out. I also used that belt line trim along the bottom. It really reduced the diameter of tire. I need to rethink it and try and lower it. I spent so much time building it that I don't want to tear it back down. I'll keep watching your build, maybe I'll get motivated to adjust the height.

Pick up another body and start over! I got another one coming that's gonna be full independent suspension!

No real progress to speak of, but I did get to run a battery through her last weekend. Crawls like champ without the body. Gonna work on body mounts, sliders, and rear bumper this week hopefully. Oh and I built and installed the mip shafts that have been sitting here for 2 weeks tonight!

Got the interior cage installed and the start of an interior. Got lazy on the body mounts and put a tall axial one in the rear and velcroed the front to the bumper with the winchline over the top for now.
