TegelMike,

This is my opinion, and my opinion only.

I've done this on three of my four 240's.

Rear:

NO OVERLOAD SPRINGS FROM IPD, EVER! Ask me how I know!

Biltstein HD shocks for the rear with Volvo OEM springs. The ride is amazing as is the handling.

Front:

Biltstein Touring OR HD Struts for the front, though the HD will not fit in your strut tube, so you are stuck with the touring, if you chose to go that route.

As far as bushings go, I prefer poly over rubber, but that's your call.

Matt
