I'm actually wondering the same thing as I'm taking the shocks/springs off my eg and putting them on my ek. The only things that are the same are the front shocks. The rear shocks are different - the bushing thickness is different - although I guess you could always be ghetto and use washers to make up the difference. the spings are different too - although some companies say 92-00.

Wrong... The springs are interchangable from 92-00, but the struts will need washers in the rear. I know cause i have the washers in front of me and they are 5mm in thickness. Other dimensions are 19mm wide with the center hole being 10mm.

Cee_mon is right. Youre gonna need washers as spacers because the base of the eg shock is a good bit larger than the ek. I wend to ace hardware and got 6 for each side. Just get any washers that will fit your LCA/Shock bolt and youll be straight.

As for the fronts, yeah theyll fit, theyre the same.

Springs are interchangable.
