Koni yellow question

[Junior Smurff]

So i have my new front koni shocks and am wondering what hardware will i need to transfer from my old oem shocks on to the new konis to have them complete?? I think its just the top part?? Heres a pic of what they came with new from tire rack, also how do you adjust the dampening? Im guessing its using the white knob on the top of the rod but how do you know where your at if you cant feel clicks on there to guide you?? Thanks

Those are brand new?? Then why's there a dent in the shock body?

thats the notch where the bolt for the shock fork goes.

Really? Right there is supposed to be there?

[Junior Smurff]

Yes, both of them have that exact same dent. Now, can anybody answer my question?? Thanks again

I'm holding on to some of these still. I'll check them when I get home for the dent.

You should just need the 2 upper strut bushings that rest on the tophat and the bump stop off the original strut . Other than that the supplied koni hardware should be used.

I haven't adjusted them before but there's alot of links out there that tell you how.

Kool man, Thanks! Damn koni didnt supply any instuctions on anything, not even on how to assemble them!

Thats weird, my yellows from the Tire Rack came with assembly and adjustment instructions. As far as adjustment goes, turned all the way clockwise is full soft and 720 degrees (2 turns) counter-clockwise is hardest.

Here yo dont mind the H&R badging, these are Koni Yellows:



And from another thread, Adjustment:

http://www.koni.ie/technology/adjustment/

use the adjustment procedure for the 8010

And yea DJ, those dents are where the wish bone pinch bolt grazes through, helps align them along with the little tab on the backside into the wishbone

Awesome dude, thats exactly what i was looking for!!!

I just never knew they came with that "notch", never seen it before. Learn something new everyday.
