Today when I go to put my wastegate back into my car, found one of my shocks to be dead

Does anyone have a USED/NEW Koni Yellow Passenger Side Rear shock for an 89 951 with M030??

Thank you!

They are aftermarket, not Porsche OE.

8040-1035
3010 Sport
Yellow Adjustable.

I'm not the original purchaser, so I don't think I qualify.
Since your's are original equipment, my guess is you would fall in the same boat. But, it's worth a call.

Oh, one is soft and has a rattle. This other acts just like the ones I have on my car. In other words, it's fine.

If you can prove you bought them, they have a lifetime warranty, less sometimes a nominal rebuild or shipping charge, so I have heard. XSBoobs, Koni factory is right down south of Florence KY near your office if I rekon correctly ( BTW have a new set of yellows on the Dr. Pepper/pink polo shirt car ) Now ready for autocross.
