Default S60 Front Strut same as XC90?

Hi. I have a s60 2005. I need a new strut assembly. They seem to be cheaper on ebay if its a XC90 rather than a S60. Am I right in saying there the same? They do look the same. Thanks

Wouldnt the ride height be far too high if you used an XC90 setup on an S60?

when you say strut do you mean the entire complete suspension or just a shock

no they are different, s60 and v70 are the same as long as you get it from the same model, as the shocks are the same but not the springs, i have a pair of struts for sale from a d5
