Default PFV / Pro Parts HD Rear Springs

Hi there,

I'm picking up a new (to me) caravan this week. I've not towed with this car before (1999 V70) but have noticed it gets very low when full of luggage/people in the back seat, so I'm worried that adding the caravan to this will be a problem.

I was looking at the Parts for Volvos site and they sell a set of 'Heavy Duty' rear springs. I enquired about the manufacturer and they advised it was Pro Parts Sweden. Now I'm new to Volvos but have been a Saab man for many years and I know Pro Parts is basically Scantech under a new name, and Scantech always had a slightly uncertain reputation in Saab circles.

So my question, does anyone have any personal experience (good or bad) of Pro Parts springs, in particular the HD ones?

Thanks in advance.
