As long as your Ground Controls are specifically for Konis, you'll be fine.
You will use the Koni supplied snap ring, that fits into the grooves of the Koni shock bodies, and the Ground Controls will come with a black collar that will fit onto that snap ring. The red Ground Control sleeve will sit on top of that black collar.

When you install GC's on Konis, this is what you will NOT use:

The OEM rubber upper spring perch, the dust cover, the Koni spring perch and the ring it sits on.
NOTE: some newer Konis, from what I understand, do not have a separate ring for the spring perch to sit on. The spring perch sits directly on the snap ring, so you won't have that separate smaller ring if you have those.
