Hello. My V50 T5 AWD has 140k KM and still running with stock shocks, but they all 4 need to be changed since they have lost their properties.
Ive been looking online and cant seem to find any shocks that match OEM number 31277592 and 31277591. My question is that if i can buy the shocks from a FWD V50 and install them on my AWD V50. I have compared the shocks on pictures and they look identical. Is that the reason that i cant find the OEM for AWD because they are identical to the FWD but with different OEM number? The same goes for the shock mount and bearing. Look the same but different OEM number.
Thanks
