First outing.. I feel it's kinda missing something in the front.. Maybe a 93 850 lip is needed, not sure yet

I don't think it looks too bad..




But I might have found an GT lip. But I won't decide before its spring as the car is parked for the winter.

I have no idea what's available for saabs, but there probably is some stiff dampers available. The ones I bought are oil, and the cheapest I could find (30 bucks each).

I replaced the bearings with some with a bigger hole, and made a "hat" witch I pressed into the bearing, to make the hole smaller, as the saab shock is 2mm smaller than the volvo one, I could not find bearings with the correct inner dimension, so I chose to do it this way.

On the top spring disc (I don't know the english word for it) I just welded a washer with a 2mm smaller hole, for the same reason as above

If you don't understand what I mean, just ask, and I can try to explain better
