Default IPD Springs

I'm thinking about getting some sport springs from IPD and wondering if I should replace the shocks and struts as well.

Would I be alright if I did the springs now and waited a few months for everything else? Just dont want to spend the money for everything right now...

Thanks guys, thoughts appreciated!!

I would not just replace springs and not shocks, struts,bushings etc...the springs from factory are meant to ride with the shocks/struts/bushings set up from factory.You might be setting yourself up for some expensive repairs down the line... Depending on how much you lower your car, it may need adjustable shocks/struts or HD shocks/struts etc...I would call IPD and ask them, their customer service is awesome and all of their employees are hard core Volvo guys and most of them have the very same conversions on their rides as you are wanting to do....Hope this helps...but I would save up and do it all at once will also save you $$ in the long run cause if you are replacing springs, struts nad shocks are right there won't have to pay double install if you know what I mean?....

Thanks! Leaning towards waiting to do everything at once.
