Awesome ride! Excited to see where you go with it. Odd builds are always fun. Side note, how are the Volvo AWD systems? Has the car been reliable?

The AWD systems are Haldex. These are the same ones used by Audi and also Land Rover on their non-low range transfer case models. We currently have 4 Volvos in the household (XC70, C30, XC60, V50) and had 6 others before these. Reliability has been excellent. I refer to Volvo as the Toyota of Europe.

They are 3D printed poly lift kits for many makes and models that extend the suspension points of the vehicle. Feels great and actually makes the wagon ride even better. Mine is a 1.25" for the XC70, but here is the link to their options on Amazon: Tema4x4 on Amazon

I have a Tema4x4 lift on my Acura. I can't say my ride quality has stayed pretty close to factory. I think upsizing my tires had a larger effect on the ride quality. Awesome build!

Here's a couple of shots of my 2011 Volvo XC70 T6 AWD build. Went with the Tema4x4 lift, Falken Wildpeak AT3W tires, and a Rola roof basket. Currently looking at all the hitch swing arm spare offerings. View attachment 140707View attachment 140704
One of my favorite rides, and while I love my Ram and CJ I can see myself picking one up for a daily driver and toss the pups and go rig.
