ATTN: THOSE WITH KONI STRUTS

Is it just me or is it a pain adjusting the rear. A metal frame gets in the way of the adjustment ****. I've been using needle nose pliers but thats a pain too. Anyone else having this problem? I wrote koni to see if they know about this issue and to see if their making a different **** for it....I'll wait for the reply, if nothings in the works imma just dremmel part of that frame just enuff for the **** to fit, or maybe just grind the **** down....

I had the same problem. It's pretty easy to fix though, just cut the mateal frame. It's not hard or try bending the metal frame back with a couple of plyers and some muscles. You can also sand down the plastic ***** that KONI gives you so that it fits in that tight spot. hope this helps.

Adjusting Koni's in the rear is a pain but what I did is use a nail clipper and it works like a charm. It fits perfectly and adjusting is a breeze. Another thing I noticed when I put in my Konis is that my drop was even all around. Because when I first put in my eibach sportlines, the rear dipped lower than the front, but now, the drop is even all around.
