Shock Replacement on S70? S70 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be Matt on  Fri May 10 01:38 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Is there a general rule of thumb for replacement of shocks/struts on a Volvo? My car is a 1998 S70 GLT with 90,000 miles. The shocks are not visibly damaged but the ride appears to harsher than in the past--particularly over ruts, potholes, etc.

    Replace the upper strut bushings and the strut bearings as well.

      Go to

      www.ipdusa.com

      They have 3 different types of shocks you can replace on your S70 (i know because i am going to change the front struts on my 96 850 Wagon.)

      They also are having a deal on Bilsteing shocks (20% off the regular price)

      You can even call ipd and talk to a volvo specialist.

      They are really cool guys
