Xc70 2003. Nivomat shock change to regular shock?

Post by onemoreroll »

Does anyone have any experience of changing Nivomats for the shock plus spring kits that are on ebay?

One of my Nivomats is on the way out, I've been quoted £620 for a replacement.

Not sure if you've already replaced everything? From my recent research you just need to pair the springs with the appropriate shocks for either set up. Regular shocks with reg XC70 spring. For reference:
