I replaced my struts and shocks at 110K--made a significant omprovement in handling, particularly in directional control on bumps. This is not a tough DIY job--you can get a spring compressor from Autozone at no charge and there are some excellent instructions on volvospeed. And yes, if you do this, you should replace the mounts while you are in there. I found the heavy duty endlinks from IPD to be excellent.
