V70 III Nivomat Replacement Kit info etc

[volvobee]

Hey everyone!

Ok I have an Ex Police V70 III 2008 FWD. It needs the rear shocks replaced, they are volvo sachs nivomat part number 31255235.
I would like to convert it to use a kit and not buy another set of nivomats, they cost too much.

My car has been off the road for a month now waiting to get the parts. It is not a case of buying just any kit as the trailing arm wont fit them.. but..

I have been directed to this site here https://geparts.se/en/rebuildingkit-...08-sports.html

There are two kits, one is the FWD and one is the AWD. Apparently custom made so may fit the existing trailing arm. On the AWD one it lists my shocks on there but not on the FWD. I managed to email the site owner who responded straight away initially but I needed some more info to check if my trailing arm would fit his kit.

He says "I only ask for VIN Number then i check.
I have no time to explain how my kit works, i sell approx 1000 kits/year, send withg all 10 000 pack…
Give me the VIN number and i check..

There is no chance that a normalö car mechanic or forum writer knows what to do, it took me approx 200 HRS to develope and i have no idea to explain all these solutions and hours but i sell daila to Volvo dealres OE"


I sent him my vin last week and then nothing for a week. Ive emailed a bunch of times now and just getting no reply.

I just wanted to know if it would fit without having to change the trailing arm like.

Has anyone bought from this site before that can recommend it? Maybe he is just way to busy to answer emails..

If it is reputable or anyone bought one of these kits, I can go ahead and buy it and my mechanic will fit it. But I dont want to buy it and then find out I do need to change the trailing arm, or if its not compatible at all for whatever reason imagine trying to get a refund from this guy who is too busy.

Anyways I really appreciate the help and for reading this.
I am trying to source some second hand ones but they are like gold dust.

thank you
