'92 960 Wagon shocks

Post by gagarin »

Hi,

I have a '92 960 Wagon with 198,000 miles. It's in excellent shape and super well taken care of. I believe the front and rear shocks are original on this car and it feels a bit soft. Can anyone recommend good replacement shocks for this vehicle?

Thank you!

Have you looked under rear to determine if the rear shocks are Nivomats?

Replace the rear shocks and springs with something meant for a 740 wagon. KYB Gas-A-Just makes a monotube rear shock for this application.
