Rear axle damper mounting

From what year did they change the damper mountings on the rear axle to be both forwards facing?

I think it was early eight's when the 90 came in but i'm far from 100% sure.

Sooner or later yes, my rear axle will be an MOT failure due multiple rust holes in suspension brackets.


However my plan is to get a whole RRC for spares though, plus the distance to dorset, so thanks but no thank you regards the axle offer bullfrog.
