Default suspension difference between generations

whats the difference between 5th and 6th gen. shocks? the fronts are the same correct? rears are different how? i'm asking because i've got a set of koni yellows with neuspeed sports on my 96, and am considering transferring them to my 94 if they'll work. i'm lazy and would rather not start pullin' shit apart to figure it out myself. i figured somebody would have first hand knowledge

basically i think from 88 to 2000 is all the same and is interchangeable.

nahh i think the 97-00 have a narrower rear lca than the 92-95. so you can put 92-95 rear shocks on a 97-00 but not the other way around.

there is a difference in the rear lca's, but that doesn't effect the shocks.
