When it comes to replacing the shocks on your Porsche 964, it is very important to make sure that you order the correct ones for your car. It is a very common mistake to make due to a design change that took place in the early 90s and can easily lead to you ordering the wrong shocks for your car.<\/p>\n

Now, ‘early suspension’ models are those which were produced up to December 1990. You can purchase the correct shocks for ‘Early Suspension’ Porsche 964s by clicking this link\u00a0<\/a>here.<\/a><\/p>\n

‘Late suspension’ models are those which were produced from January 1991 onwards. You can purchase the correct shocks for ‘Late Suspension’ Porsche 964s by clicking this link here.<\/a><\/p>\n

You can see the difference in early and late models in our handy picture below, please notice specifically the bonnet latch shape. It is round on early models and triangular on later models.<\/p>\n
