I'm aware of all of the common options for front struts for the 850 (Bilstein, Sachs, Koni, etc.) but I'm still perplexed as to why VOLVO USA itself lists so many different struts that actually fit the 850. VOLVO USA lists (at least) the following:

part # list price

9173850 $175.05
8612887 $163.95 (supercedes 9140070)
9140072 $106.68

All are available on-line for about 20% off from TASCA and/or myswedishparts.com, making the 9140072 a really inexpensive choice (about $88).

Can anyone make sense of this?
