I have a Sachs rear damper for sale, unused.
Look in the for sale section if you're potentially interested I think it's the same unit for S60 / V70, but best to check. Thanks Edit - ahh, just checked again, and it's the front you're interested in. So ignore this post. Cheers Last edited by reesky; Oct 18th, 2015 at 22:44. |

Thank you for the advise. I'm needing front end suspension, all is good at the back end, well for now anyway.

I recently ordered a pair of Lemforder wishbones from Carparts for less. I then noticed SKS had the same items for about £26 less for the pair, even taking into account the £15 off code on CP4L. Thankfully CP4L refunded the difference.
Their Lemforder parts do seem reasonably priced. http://www.skscarparts.co.uk/ |

parts
I have used a supplier called Mister Auto ,who appear to reside in Belgium .Their parts are very cheap and I have found them adequate ,maybe not premium enthusiast quality ,but do the job for an old car .
Their delivery is incredibly slow though,,as I think they do not actually stock anything ,expect ten days from order ,but if in no hurry that is fine .

Thank you guys for the latest posts which is exactly the information I require, I will be having a look at at those suppliers and hopefully buying.
Also I note that Volvo forums administration has read this thread and took appropriate action. |

I recently undertook some suspension work and found Bilstein shocks at Parts for Volvo, Meyle HD drop links at All German, Lemfoerder wishbones at ECP (with extra discount), Febi top mounts (rubbers) from Ace Car parts on E-bay and Febi top bearings from Andrew Page. Best prices I could find for good quality parts.

Done some more research and I believe lemforder best quality for price, mixed reviews about febi, and according to alot meyle are best. Found that febi are made by blistein so I am bit confused about how they aren't quality as I regard blistein as a quality part. That said, I think what you have will do the trick! :-) Last edited by Stevenfife; Oct 19th, 2015 at 14:40. |

Remember Eurocarparts is a sister company to Carparts4less, though the latter is mail order only.
Their web sites are virtually identical. I usually find CP4L cheaper, but you have to see what discount codes are around at the time you order. |

ECP currently running a 10% discount (EXTRA10) so Lemfoerder wishbones work out around £80 each.
