With ditching the truck, I now need to start towing the 2,500 lb boat with the 2005 v70. Last week I put a hitch on it and the wiring harness. It tows well, except for the fact that it's super low to the ground. The trailer is set up so that it only puts about 175lbs tongue weight on the ball, but the car is just naturally really low in the back.

Does anyone have any suggestions of maybe upgrading the springs and/or shocks? Maybe airbags?

I've been all around google but haven't had any luck on finding anything. Thx.
