Not sure if this is a real question, but here goes.

The entire assembly of a shock absorber, spring, and upper mount will interchange between an NA and an NB. The individual components are not directly interchangeable. The springs rates, damping curves, ride height and shock travel will be different however, so don't go just replacing a single corner.

Thanks Joe. I have no experience with NB's and a friend got a wrecked one and needed to put some parts on there to move it. I figured it would interchange.
