I have a 1993 945T. Which are the correct original equipment radius rod bushings? On the eeuroparts website I see two: 6819057 (Boge hydrolic) and 1359599 (Boge solid). What is the difference? I assume that they use the same washers and bolts? Also, are "Boge OEM" ones exactly the same as the Volvo brand ones (Volvo ones are about twice the price).

I currently am using the urethane ones from FCP groton (6819057U). I find these give too harsh a ride in the cold weather. Even small bumps feel huge. When warm, they are okay. I don't think that there is something else wrong with the suspension - new: shocks, inner and outer tie rod ends, ball joints, upper strut mount bushings. All hardware is tight.

Will I need to get another alignment after installing the Boge ones? I had one done after replacing all of the above.

Thank you.
