Sorry to tell you that you will have a very difficult
time to find the OEM replacement shocks for your
car. They have been unavailable for about 20 years
now.

Most people, in order to replace the rear air ride
system purchase a retrofit  air shock with a port
near the license plate frame where they can add air.
They are made by several firms.

Does your original vacuum compressor still work?
If not, that's your only option since the parts for
the compressor are no longer available.  They are
not being reproduced.  Sorry for the bad news.

Good luck,

Mike

If the original compressor still works you will need to change the hose from the valve at the rear axle to have a T and use replacement shocks with single ports.
