Ex plods if its a V70 have Nivomat self levelers on rear, not too sure about S60, and cant use lowered springs with Nivomats, you would need to change rear shockers to standard shocks
its v70 so its probably best to change the lot then when budget allows
Yep - nivomats on the rear.
You can just fit OE rear shocks, you don't need to change the mounts. As I found, fitting lowering springs with nivomats makes it look silly!
