depends on the year. earlier ones were garrett, later ones were mitsubishi. there's a couple other variants, like California cars have EGR, and I think there might even be a couple different mitsu's

87 to 89 is a TD05-12B generally, 90+ are regularly TD04's. 86 and earlier are some sort of Garrett, but I don't think that 740's came in turbo back then. 760's came with a turbo option since 84 I think (with a Garrett). Anyone who knows better can correct me.

oh, what color interior, what kinda condition are your front seats in, and where is this car located? I'm looking for some clean charcoal grey leather 740 seats. (hahahah right, I know).

Hey there. my car is a 1985 Volvo 740 Turbo Intercooler * I - intercooler * just an acronym for the 740 Turbo Intercooler.

Uhm my front seats .. lemme go take a look to be fully correct about my response.

okay so the front driver seat is pretty cracked .. theres 1 hole and just not perfect by all means..

the passenger is cracked and not perfect but there are no holes in it.. i can take pictures if you want to see what i mean. just let me know.

they are charcoal grey .. just not super clean ..

the car is located in vernon BC canada

Ive never seen the rims i have on my volvo on any other volvo but theyre CCW's Wire rims ? wierd right ?

poor view of the seats but heres what they look like .. kinda ish..

k, thanks. heh, yeah, those seats aren't much better than what I have (7 year older car than my 92). Anyways, BC is kinda far for me to go to get seats, and shipping would be outrageous.

i'm gonna guess those wheels were added by someone as I don't think any Volvo came with wire wheels from the factory...

that car looks pretty clean, I dunno but I think I'd be trying to find a rear axle assembly from a junkyard and slap it in there and roll on. Pretty easy to remove/install one, its like jack the back of the car, put a jack under the axle, pull the lower bolts from the shocks, remove the brake lines, drop the axle, unbolt the driveshaft, unbolt the axle from the trailing arms, unbolt the torque arms, and pooof, its free, brakes and all. ok, I forgot the panhard rod, unbolt that in there somewhere too.

you can use the rear end from most any 740/940 non-IRS car right up to 95. bonus if you find one with a lockup differential, that gives you the equivalent of positraction at low speeds.
