Suspension Recommendations C70 1999

Hi Robert,

I replaced both my struts and Nivomats on my '88 760T with OEM which I purchased from Groton FCP... Additionally, I replaced nearly all bushings on the front end...amazing difference in ride quality and handling performance... Only thing I'd do differently..is to replace the end-link bushings with neo-prene one's...the rubber one's compress easily...

I had a local independent shop replace the struts and Nivomat's...he charged me just under $150 for all four...

Another source for struts & shocks is IPD... I just recieved a new catalog from them on Friday... They're usually a little more expensive then FCP is and longer shipping time as they're on the left coast in Oregon... So, I use them as my back up to FCP...and when all else fails...Volvo as my last resort.

Hope this helps....

Frank
