91 944S2 rear shocks

The rear shock are no longer available from Porsche 951 333 032 09, however I notice 1989-90 are available. Anyone know what the difference is? If my shocks aren’t blown should I replace on a 70K car?

Honestly, if the shocks are not leaking and are in good working order, I personally would not replace them. That's just me though.

If they are Koni shocks and you want peace of mind you can send them out for overhaul, fairly reasonable price and dyno tested to assure performance. IIRC it was performance shock in California that did mine.
