Default strut mount interchange
Hearing all the horror stories of the volvo 240 strut mounts and it getting hard to find the original volvo brand. Has anybody tried to find a fit from another model of volvo like a 760? Just curious. Thanks.

Any parts seller data base should cross reference and all applications should show up automatically...

fcpeuro has factory strut mounts for both 240 and 7/9's.... for the 740/940 they have lemforders too, which I'd be happy with. for the 240, fcp has kyb which are probably OK. meyle, I don't trust so much.

great because I did the struts and mounts on both my 240's about 2k miles ago and used meyle mounts...
that being said, so far so good
