Re: 960 Front Suspension Rebuild (long) 900 1992

I didn't get the parts from Volvo, if that's what you mean. They were, for the most part though, parts from the OEM suppliers to Volvo. TRW makes the tie rods, Boge makes the shocks, etc. I purchased most of the parts from FCP Groton Volvo in CT and was really impressed with their service. The sway bars came from IPD. I originally was just going to try to get an orig. rear bar from a 700/900 sedan to stick on the back, but couldn't find one. I'm actually really glad that I went with the IPD bars, though, because it corners MUCH better than it did before (and I've got Nivomats on the back still). The Turbo Gas shocks are a big improvement over the stock shocks, too, and there is only a slight loss of ride quality. Bushings came from IPD, too. They are a mix of Volvo and aftermarket parts.
