Default V90 rear suspension / adjust


I have V90 with normal suspension and I was a bit unhappy because of low height of rear suspension. I found out that Volvo has many adjustment pieces with different height from 6,9,12,15,.....to 42mm. This part is between leaf spring and lower arm. I had already 42 so I add another piece 12mm. That's total maximum what can be use. Now it doesn't look do bad. This is just for information.

Do you know have guide on how to make the adjustment? I got a comfort chassis s90L and it swings like a boat when taking turns. Maybe i can make a difference by adjusting the rear leaf springs. Problem is I don't know how to, neither does the dealership.

Default v90 2020 rear transverse leaf spring suspension

Hi. Yes, ive noticed on mine, the rear sits just a little lower than the front and it bugs me to, ive looked on the net and found what i think are spacers but it says for the cross country model, i cant find any for my r design. Anyways do you have any place i can find these spacers?

Volvo say its cant be done, no spacers, which i think is stupid.

In the meantime I spoke to a suspension specialist who suggested he can make some 20mm shims and put them in there somewhere as im not sure myself.

Anyone got any advice on the matter. cheers
