Hi,

I need to replace the shocks on the wife's 1998 V70 AWD and I'm quite confused as to which ones I need. Everywhere I seem to look for shocks (online) they all seem to say "not for AWD". I would like shocks of similar ride/value as the OEM ones. I know if I put stiffer ones in there that she won't like it.

Anybody done this task? What did you buy? Where? Was it really that hard to accomplish the maintenance? I'm still not sure if I'm going to do the work or farm it out. I'll probably end up doing it though.

Anyways, there it is. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

-Chris
