So i took out the lame azz nivomats i hated them they rode so poorly and just all about didn't work for me. I have 2 coils off all the way around and it sits a lil low. While i was at it i welded the rear diff and installed a recirc bov since it didn't have one when i removed the 13c and put on a t3.
ill prob end up with the nivocrap on my broncoII.

I've been eyeballing the fox "racing" shocks on fleebay.
How do they perform?

I loved them. They are going onto the 242. The resivoir is overkill but that's how they came to me. The only problem I ran into was the heimed end has a steel ball with a standard bolt hole size just a little bigger than stock volvo. I took the bolt and ran a few beads down the shoulder where the shock would ride and ground it to size. I made it a tight fit because it started to rattle after a few thousand miles. I got these used off a truck s-10 iirc that was hammered on and they were still good. I put about 30k on them without one complaint.
Edit: I think the buchka bros are using them too.
