Thanks. I might as well just order front, rear, and hardcore bar at the same time.
So i have been trying to read up on the koni struts and adjusting them.
Did you adjust the rears? or just leave them set to zero?
Are they softer then stock? I dont really want anything stiffer lol.

Thanks. Did it lower the rear end at all? If they are adjustable, I can make them softer right?

the rear konis set two turns off full soft you be purrfect. We are working on a revalved front koni, adds about 200 per shock to the price with shipping ugh...but real nice valving I think. Wangspeed and Slowbalt will say when the time comes

Guess you just let the cat out of the bag, John Anyways, enough people ask about how to adjust Konis, and advice on what to set them to. Maybe I should make a sticky.
