I wouldn't recommend it based on my experiences unless you have endless money to dump into the car.

Thanks everyone! I wish I could remove it myself, but not that mechanically inclined nor do I have the tools. I'm going to look into Colorado driveshaft, thanks JRL.

I will be parting with my '00 V70 XC as soon as I can afford to get another car and never will I own a volvo again. I love the space, comfort and feel of the car, but the constant problems,...
