Your new shocks will be stiffer; that's not a problem. But, you really do need the bushes for installation. Rubber deteriorates over time. I have never received new shocks that did not have at least the rubber bushes in the box. Sometimes you have to reuse the metal cups (washers) but I just don't recall ever having to find new rubber for shocks. Check the Volvo parts list for your car to see if they are called out seperately.
