Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

As a part of gradually fixing up our 98 Boxster, I am now looking at having the rear shocks replaced as the fronts have been sorted. Just looking to get confirmation on all the parts needed with a few other questions, below is the list I have been able to gather from Pelican. Shock Absorber - Bilstein Sport (Rear Left or Right) – Qty 2 Shock Mount (Flange with Bonded Rubber Bushing and Studs, Rear Upper) – Qty 2 Rubber Bump Stop (Bushing), Rear Strut – Qty 2 Bellow for Shock Absorber – Qty 2 Front/Rear Upper Shock Stop Plate – Qty 2 Two other questions: Are there any vendors or forum sponsors other than pelican that offer competitive pricing on suspension parts? DIY instructions would be of massive help if anyone has them.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
