(850Wagon) 850 1995 posted by  ecmiller on  Thu Sep 18 15:20 CST 2003 Author: [PROFILE] [EVERY POST] [THREADS] [BEST POSTS]     [IGNORE ALL POSTS] [RELATED] I am already planning on replacing the rear shocks. Last summer I had to replace the rear shock mounts because they were both completely shot and poking against the bottom of the wagon interior floor, so I know how to do everything on the rear. I think it was because I had it overloaded w/o the overload springs when I drove from Seattle to New Jersey. I am now looking at making the same trip next month and don't want the same problem. I purchased the IPD overload springs and Bilstein heavy duty shocks for the rear, and Bilstein heavy duty struts for the front as well. I'll do the rears myself, but I am not sure if I'll do the front or take it someplace. Mark this post as an answer to my question<- Use this feature to mark quality replies to your post.
