2008 Volvo C30 T5 "Belle"

Glad I'm not the only one with EVAP codes after AWD conversionI've been driving this car daily. Ordered a pair of new LCAs since the used V50 ones were near the end of their life and I can feel the caster change under braking.
There has been a CEL for a fuel-tank-minor-leak, so I swapped the V50 EVAP pump for the C30 one (likely culprit associated with the code), took out the fuel pump assembly and replaced the O ring gasket, and examined the fuel filler cap (which still looks good). The CEL only comes on after a few days of driving, and could be associated with any of those things, so hopefully that fixed it.
But then I went to start the car and it wouldn't turn over. No pressure in the fuel rail; the fuel pump isn't priming when the key is inserted. I'm guessing I just jiggled some wires loose when I pulled the pump out... So now I get to take things apart again.
Just a word of advice for anyone doing an AWD swap. CUT A HOLE IN YOUR FLOOR FOR EASY PUMP ACCESS. It has made my life so much easier.
The bracket helps hold the hub assembly to the knuckle since these car developed a known issue of the hub bearing slowly walking out. The bracket was Volvo's solution to the problem, so even stock cars should add this.Do I recall correctly you saying that if you run wheel spacers that you need to have some weirdo bracket to hold the front axels in place?
we are going to need a 3 way drag or autocross race sometime between them all!First snow of the season, time to go play!
