Absolutely necessary if you want to run 92-00 shocks up front on a 88-91.

Note that it will jack up your ride height too. If you have coilovers no big deal, but with lowering springs you'll be about .5-.75 inch too high afterward.

is this because the strut is longer? will running a 92 up shock on an 88-91 cause any undue stress to the shock, as in, compress it too far from the beginning?

You can look forward to such features as: shock bottoming, bounciness, and undue stress and harshness added.
