It depends on what you want to do with the car... Volvo still has 'their' shocks for it from the dealer. Monroe makes some that are about the same. KYB makes some a bit stiffer and then there is Bilsteins. They often used with the sway bars. If you put them on an 1800, reinforce the shock towers as I have seen more than a few start to crack/punch through....
