Hi,
An impact wrench would certainly be a good idea, provided you have access to a powerful compressor - they do need lots of air. Also apply a liberal amount of grease to the washers, bolt and nut. Low friction is a must.
If the driver will slide away from the sleeve, I would have made a large "washer" from a piece of flat iron, to put between driver and sleeve. The original Volvo tool has a ridge/groove to prevent sliding.
Good luck,
Erling.
