Koni's, adjusting strut

[jimmy5o4]

I heard that the koni sport yellows have a way to adjust the ride height somehow. I have eibach prokit with the konis strut in front and eibach springs with factory strut in back because I'm waiting for my other 2 to come home. The front is higher then my back. I don't mind that but my front barely lowered. My rear is lowered good. But is it true I can adjusy the front konis somehow? I have some pic on my old post.

no need to make to threads bro...as for adjustment if they're adjustable which i think koni yellows are then there should be some sort of adjuster on the top of the strut so pop your hood and look yourself, if they're adjustable it should be clear to see. Never messed with yellows, but illuminas have their adjuster right on the top.

He's talking about adjusting the height, not the stiffness.

They have a choice of mounting perches, 2 in front, 3 in back. I use the top perch in front and the middle perch in back and my car's level. I use the Pro Kit too.

here, for future reference, not trying to be a dick, but you should research something before you buy it...they're externally adjustable. hella good shocks....http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/partdetails/Koni/Suspension/Shocks/Yellow_Adjustable_Sport/2531

Yeah they have adjustment for ride stifness and stuff but I was wondering cause I heard it can adjust ride height too but you have to do some kind of sheit

Tegsox got a pic of your teggy?!

ahh heighth umm that will require some work like tegsox said, you'll have to rip back in there to get that adjusted, IMO just get rid of the eibachs and buy some ground control and match those with the koni's. you'll be much more happy

Damn I just got the eibach prokit brand new too lol..

There are clips on the body that hold the spring perch in place. These can be set in different places to change the mounting height of the spring perch.

I use the Koni STR-T struts and have an Eibach Pro Kit on mine as well. Well my Eibachs are for a Civic and I bought them new. To be honest I wish I could lower the front another half an inch. Here is a pic.

Koni yellow rear shock.

See the rusty line under the silver piece? That's the lowest perch of the three perches on the rear shocks.
