Default New to ajustable shocks...

I recently acquired some revalved koneeesss. Unfortunately, the only way to asjust is to take them off the car...

I have a 91 hatch, 22 mm rear sway and h&r race. I put 2/3 max in front and half rear, cause it has some (mucho) oversteer.

Does this sound good, everyone I know told me to put more rebound in the back.

sounds fine to me.. if you don't like the way it feels you can always yank em and readjust, it's not that hard..

If you want to call me at the office, we can discuss it further in depth. It would be good to get the part numbers that are stamped in the side of the shocks first so I know which exact parts we're talking about.

Do you have an email address?? I live in Quebec and dont feel like making a long distance.

Its stamped "SS" on the bottom near the serial numbers. They look and are ajustable like the Koni reds, only painted sport yellow. I think its written sport at the bottom also, Ill check it out tomorow afternoon.

10 min, sheesh, took me 4 hours to put them on the car... I had to use type r rear control arms. Yeah, I put them upside down. Wondered why it wasnt fitting
