VERY BOUNCY SUSPENSION!. Do i need to change the springs or can i just change the struts? Its a volvo 940.?

I really dont want to change the springs but im afraid that if i just change the struts that the suspension wont be much different. Is this true? Do i need to change the springs?

HI

your problem is not the springs but the shocks/struts.. that's what stops the car from bouncing. If you push down hard on any corner of the car and it bounces more than once they the shock/struts are bad.

good luck

im sure the springs are fine.just have the struts changed.that's usually what is done.sometimes though you can buy the whole unit,springs and struts already together.depending on the car though.
