Default FX3 shocks?

What is the difference between a 91 and 95 FX3 shock? Will a 91 not work on a 95?

I don't think those internal adjuster shafts turn as far on the later models; they are different shocks and need different actuators also.

I think they changed in 92'. If you want to be sure call Blistien and ask I guess.

The new '92 + style shocks only require the actuators to travel roughly 90 degrees to get the full range of adjustability. The black box is different also.
