Completely normal.

the 94s use superconducting magnetic levitation (aka maglev or magnetic suspension). you can actually remove the springs to save weight, they're just there for looks.

Notice the yellow and blue shock just inside of the spring. Yours should be red and black.

I ment inside as in closer to the center of the car, but your right that probably wasn't very clear considering what we were talking about.

Not my car. It's a UMI shop car. Which explains why they want it clean.

Not sure if you guys are still confused or what...


but rear shocks the shock is not inside of the spring. They attach to the rear axle on the bottom and into the a spot just behind the back seat on the top.


the fronts the shock is inside of the spring and comes out as a complete unit.


here is the rear shock(the rear spring was already removed) but the stockers are this color, and they mount in the same spot.

Re: no shocks!!!???

The hardest part when my dad and i replaced mine was locating the top bolt. Once we took apart the inside panel of the car we found it and it was fairy simple. Sad....took us 30 minutes to find the stupid thing...when we found it it was easy, just didn't know where to look at first.
