I installed the same on my 98 S70 at 105k with much improved ride and handling. It could have used the upgrade 75k. Gradual decline can sneak by!

I replaced all four mounts at the same time. The fronts fail before the struts(my second set) but, the rear appeared fine. Probably a waste of $50.00. Be sure they replace the front mounts. They cost about $30 each and should be no added labor expense while changing the struts.

It took me about 3 hours to do all four. What the labor quote?
