Rear shock changes over the years


Recommended Posts

I’m seeing some 90 rear shocks being listed as different from Td5 (or maybe Puma) onwards. One seller is telling me they are a different ‘fitment’. 
 

I’m honestly not sure. But I thought only the damping rate (and supplier) changed over the years compared to Tdi and earlier models. Anyone able to confirm or deny? Thanks.

The later ones have a longer bottom pin as the bush design changed. Early has the two rubber doughnuts retained by two pairs of washers on a flat axle mount. Late has two cone-shaped bushes retained by a single pair of washers and sat within fixed cups on the axle mount.

Top mount never changed to my knowledge.
