Hi
One of the Nivos on the rear of my GLT Estate is weeping slightly, apparently it will fail its MOT due in August because of this so I would like to know if anybody has a pair to sell.
Thanks

I have a pair I took off my 99 V70 P1 when I fitted lowering springs and standard shocks.

They where working fine with no leaks when I removed them, the usual surface rust but nothing major. I also have a pair of top mounts and the softer springs which are used in conjunction with the nivos.

They're sat in my garage getting in the way!

Hi
Thanks for your reply, I had both rear springs replaced a few months ago - both the old ones were broken at the top - while I would be changing the shocks I might just as well replace the top mounts, are the Nivos the ones with two bolt through lugs at the bottom and the straight spikey bit at the top?
Oh, and how much do you want for them.
You could PM me if you wish.
Thanks.

Hi
The Nivo's I mentioned above are for the 4wd version, which mine isn't, the ones I'm after are the 2wd ones with just the bottom bush and a threaded part at the top.
Cheers.

as a back up I have a single nivo in my garage that is surplus to requirements - I had one go but replaced both as a pair - just how I've been taught to do things. It has no leaks and the rubber boot in in good nick. Let me know if the other offers don't tempt you.

Postage will be a few quid as its heavy but wouldn't want much for it.
