Koni Shock Installation help
Does anybody have some good directions on installing Koni Yellow shocks? I have installed other shocks without any issues, but I got some new Koni Yellow shocks recently. I want to install them correctly, but the instructions that came with them really suck. Any help is appreciated.

I didn't even look at the directions. Just unbolted the old and bolted in the new. I changed the front springs while I was at it and put blue locktight on the 2 large spindle to strut bolts.

Re: Koni Shock Installation help
Suspension is a fairly straight forward job. May need a front end alignment afterwards, just depends on how much you are replacing/replaced.

No, its just the rear shocks. I've done shocks before, just wanted to make sure I did these right. The pictures in the instructions make it look like using the improper setting with mess with ride height. Just wanted to make sure I don't have to do the job twice.

Put mine in set at 0, haven't adjusted them to any other settings, personally, I like the way they high speed squat a bit on off ramps.. One bolt bottom, one nut top, done....
