The alignment tool I'm talking about basically slides in where your driveshaft does so that the engine and gimbal bearing are aligned properly. I'm 99.9% certain that VOLVO uses them. You have to remember what is important is that when the driveshaft slides in through the gimbal that it goes straight into the coupler bolted to the flywheel. Solid shafts don't like to be flexed, and would eventually break the transom or driveshaft from binding(if you could even get your outdrive on).
