Default mot passed again!

hi all well the old girl passed her mot and this time flew through the emissions
so all my work on her engine was worthwhile and the only noted advisory is the rear suspension top mounts rubber perished but not enough to fail it but i do want to do them as i have a clunk from o/s/r when i go over a big bump or rail crossing,is it a best bought volvo part or can i get away with a decent pattern make?seems prices vary a lot and not heard of half the makes but corteco was one i recognise as used to be ok,are they any good now though?
im told its not a difficult job is this true?and can anyone tell me do i have to compress the spring,i have spring compressor but there very old and i bent one using for a different job,,,
i shall gets some pics up again soon of all the work ive done,she looks atleast a year or 2 younger!peace
