Default camry shock absorber?

Hey guys, I have 94 es300 and I was curious to see if rear camry shocks and springs would fit my car. If so what years are compatible?

Based on the comparison of part numbers between the 94 Lexus ES and Camry V6, it does not look like the rear springs and shocks are the same.

thanks, I see parts numbers are different...but shouldn't they be since they are diff trade names? Looks like body styles are the same...are you sure they wouldn't work?

I would reccommend going to www.toyotanation.com There is lots of good camry info available there maybe there will be something posted up there about it. Hope that helps.

I'm no expert but I've noticed that most of the mechanical part numbers for corresponding model years of the ES and Camry V6 are the same with differences increasing somewhat beginning with the 2002 model year. On the shocks and springs, it might just be differences in rebound rates. I don't think the ES suspension and ride is as firm/harsh as on our Camry V6.
