I think the only difference is that starting with the 92 model, the rear end ratio was changed from 3.91 to 3.72. check the production date & VIN #. check for the same VIN# on all body panels.
I suggest doing a compression test and find out when/if the waterpump was replaced. also inspect all shocks for leakage. the rear SLS is $$$.
