Hi there
I am looking into upgrading the suspension on my xc70 2006 model so it handles the bends better without loosing the ride height, apart from replacing the shocks what other bits would improve the over all handling ? I travel to mt Hotham to work several times a week, deep snow in winter and lots of sharp bends.
Thanks
Rob

How deep is deep snow?

if we're lucky we could get 40 - 60 cms, so up to the front grill, sometimes deeper if there's drifting. The standard height is high enough for my purposes

I was looking for slightly raised suspension for my P3 XC but had no luck, It seems that nobody makes anything like that. I am sure if you want to maintain standard height there would be options available.
@AshDVS may be able to point you in the right direction?

IPD sway bars. I've installed the rear so far on my 2005 and it made a massive improvement. Waiting until I fix the angle gear before installing the front.
The other big improvement was going to 17" XC90 rims with 225/55 RE003 tyres.
