Default How is the best way to replace independent rear suspension

Help please,

My daughter had a fight with a ditch and mailbox with our 95 volvo 850, I have had this thing since new, with 210,000 miles on it. it still drives and handles new. Is it safe to go to a junk yard? How much should I expect to pay? Does the car need to be aligned after the independent rear suspension is replaced. Thanks in advanced for ya'll's help. Any other tricks or tips that can help.
This is my 3rd Volvo, my daughter is fixxing to get an S70.

Randy

You can go to a junk yard but i wouldnt trust the parts for the suspension from there.Yes you have to have it aligned after replacing the parts.I always drop everything together and then seperate on the ground.It really isn't that bad to replace them.
