Not according to the first US spec dual circuit Amazons, the front brakes were servo assisted whereas the rears were un-assisted

Rear Boot Carpet
hi ya folks
a few photos to share but i had some cleaning and painting todo which is time consuming -prep is so boring but the more prep you do the better the results at the end , fitted the rear boot carpet , re did the front brake pipes so they did not foul on anything , fitted new brake pads N.O.S with good old asbestos that some volvo nuts love due to them lasting longer and not harming the front discs so i have read . did some other bits ready like the longer speedo cable to OD , wiring for the OD to get ready to reinstall to the car so lots of planing in the scheme of things reffering to the manual helps when unsure. more to follow after monday .......... Regards Robert

Coming along nicely Robert. Taking me back to when I did mine last year. Not much done to mine this year due to opening a restaurant.

Make sure you keep a check on those pads (and wear protection) as the bonding is well over 30 years old by now.
