"If you use Volvo shocks, look for the shock code contained on the plate on top of the radiator, 5th line, 4th character. My 4th line was blank. IE, 031Y35a, 'Y' is the shock code. [Editor] Consensus on Brickboard seems to criticize OEM shocks and recommend aftermarket.

Aftermarket Shocks for S90/V90 Cars. [Eric Seeger] There's finally an aftermarket alternative for our rear shocks! Monroe Sensa-Trac part #5979 is the new (and as far as I can tell, the only) aftermarket alternative for V90 and part #5978 is for S90 sedans. These are replacement for NON-Nivomat rear shocks. Aftermartket Nivomat replacements are available from Monroe as well. I got a pair installed on my wife's V90 tonight, and I can say that they work very well. At Sears, they cost $110 for the pair installed."
