1999 V70 XC Struts Questions
So I am planning on replacing my front struts on our 1999 V70 XC. It does not have elect. ride control. I have some questions if anyone could help out please:
1)Who has the best price and quality Gruton?
2) Is there anything else I should change while doing the struts
3) Are there any special Volvo tools needed for this job? If so, where is the best place to get them

Name brand, OEM or better parts should be used.
Struts, spring seats and bearings should be replaced. The tools you'll need are spring compressor, framing square and basic tools.
You can shop locally or with our forum sponsors.
Don't buy cheap rubber parts.

Also known as a strut mount- the upper pivot for the strut.
