Kaplhenke rear kit, actually, but let's start from the beginning.

Here's my new daily .It's a 98 V70R with a 260ish miles on body and 170ish on a motor.I was looking for a quite a while for a perfect DD. Previous owner, Kristian, did stage zero,and bunch of maintenance done to get it up to par. Also it got white injectors,18t ,EST exhaust, NA TB and all things SNABB, naturally.

Here's some pics soon after I picked it up









Soon after I took it to RSI and we installed front D2 coilovers ,IPD swaybars and rear drop bolts, also I put the stock grill back and installed rear spoiler.









I had CK reps and adapters that i got almost 2 years ago for my C70 . Originally i got 17mm front adapter and 25mm rear with a18x8 et40- it was a nice fitment for the coupe, but on a wagon it didn't go too well. Rear wheels were poking way too much, so I had to swap front to the back and 25mm to the front. Now front poke a lil too much for my liking, but it's drivable-good enough for me. For now,

















The rake is massive

I was trying to findsome alternative ways to lower the rear, but then decided to shell out for Kaplhenke.

And that's where it stands now. The rear kit  came in on Tuesday. Really excited to have a rear suspension match the front finally.
