About to install Koni yellow part number 8741 1030SPORT. Just unboxed one and all that came inside the box was the shock, washer, nut and A plastic washer that fits around the shaft. Is a dust cover and shaft bump stop not necessary? Is that plastic shaft washer used for coil overs? I’m wondering if I can discard it.

 

It's not required, but I put a set of rubber strut covers from Rancho over the upper shaft just to help keep it clean and debris free.

 

thank you! I think I’d prefer having some on there myself but it’s good to know I can put them on. Is there a specific dust cover from rancho? I’ll do a search here in a min. How about that white spacer? Thanks again

 

I'd have to look it up, but there was a thread from many, many moons ago that added the Racho cover that I think might have the p/n. I'd have to look for it. As far as the white piece, I don't recall if I had to use it or not.

 

Found it (I think this is the one):

I normally use the original factory plastic covers but I've never used them on koni

 

I think that I switched to rubber covers because the original covers weren't compatible with the Spohn strut towers that I am using on my GTA.

 

thank you very much! You are awesome dude!
