Hello. I am struggling to find rear shock absorbers with self levelling control for my 1997 volvo 850.
Is some one able to help with the best place to find these?

Regards mklons

Skandix have them, not cheap though! Around EUR 1000 for a pair...

I assume you mean Nivomats?
Easy option is to replace with standard springs & shocks, kit available from PFS parts...

Don't try to use standard shocks without replacing the springs though...

If Volvo can supply new Nivo kits to include springs and bump stops for the 700/900 Series etc (at a price!!), I am sure that they can do the same for this Series. I would phone FRF, Swansea (see Traders) for the best info/price for starters.
