Shock/Strut options for S90 S90-V90 1997

posted by  someone claiming to be marconey on  Sun Feb 22 09:40 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hello everyone!

I recently bought my 5th Volvo (97 S90). I realize now that it's one of those borderline models (when Volvo switched from 960 to S90). Consequently in many online catlogs I have to choose 1997 960 for application purposes. Anyway on to the main topic: I have heard so much about Bilsteins (raves, reviews....) Many people feel that they are worth every penny, make a tangible difference in ride quality, handling etc. So I set out to search for some for my car. Agh! Bilstein has no listing for an S90 (and also for later 960s). Has anyone discovered any cross match between another (e.g. early 960 models) application and S90? Eventhough officially there's no S90 appliciation, is it possible to match the specs from another Volvo and install shocks on an S90? I can't wait to taste some Bilsteins! (The only choice I have found so far are Boge (original) and Monroe (no thanks). KYB, KONI do not seem to have S90 applications either.) Any suggestions, recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Kenneth
