I have them on my PV and 142. There is little doubt in my mind that they are too stiff for the PV. On the 142 it is less objectionable, partly because I have somewhat heavier than normal springs in the rear, and it is a heavier car. I'll be replacinbg the ones on the PV with something less harsh -- haven't made up my mind about the 142. I had them on a "81 245, and liked the somewhat stiffer ride, but was surprised they lasted only about four years, less than 50K miles. The original Volvo shocks were good for nearly twice that mileage.
