prasamin Posted December 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 Just an update: I found the part number for the center console bezel for a 98 V70: There are a number of different colors available of course but the one that matches my interior and I imagine most normal interiors is called "plastic" and it's number is: 9192844Cost of the part is in the realm of $45-50 new.oh man, I completely forgot about getting the pn for you. glad you found it!

Big Will Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 Yes the tranny will work on your 98 S70. Assuming you're in the US where those didn't come in a manual trans you are looking to do a swap correct?Good luck. Merry Christmas everyone.

spottieottie Posted December 25, 2006 Report Share Posted December 25, 2006 My .02 cents.Parts sources:Clutch master cylinder: Eeuroparts. ~ $100Slave cylinder: Myswedishparts.com ~ $50R clutch: Fcp groton ~ $300Throwout bearing: Myswedishparts.com ~ $45Shifter cables (if needed): Myswedishparts.com ~ $100Clutch hose: (buy new) Myswedishparts.com~ $50You can reuse the flywheel bolts if they look to be in good shape, and look like they haven't been out before. Mine were perfect just reinstall with a little locktite. Pressure plate bolts are cheap and you can buy them at Napa. do it.Use Mobil 1 or similar 75-90 gear oil, don't waste your money on the Volvo oilMake sure you resurface the flywheel, all else Pras already explained. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be cheaper and easyer to just sell a GLT and buy a T5M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
