Post 944S2 shocks? Who makes/has them?

My 90 944S2 Cab needs front and rear shocks. Any suggestions as to where I can come across some?

Check with Jason at Paragon.

It is my understanding that you can not get the fronts anymore. If you go to the 944 Turbo Koni adjustable (which is very hard to find), you will need to get a new spring perch kit as the S2 has some wierd set-up that was only on the S2.

In a few months there is a strut insert that will be available for our cars, however it will require some cutting and drilling of the existing strut housing. Jason can fill you in on the details.

The rears are much easier to find and they just bolt right up.

Can you replace just the front or just the rear shocks? I'm sure my S2 with 84k needs them (or I would at least like to stiffen them a little), but I don't really have $2k just for suspension right now.

makes the only performance replacements I could find for the S2 and Carl (or Karl) was very helpful and knowledgable about the S2 issues (He has one himself). He has 4 different performance levels for the S2 setup.
