Default Koni Yellow Perches

Hi,

Got mine yesterday and I have only 2 perch instead of 3 is this right?

I have an Accord so it might be different than the Civics and Integra's

If I lower the perch will that mean that I will have less shock travel?

Thanks

Correct on both counts.

If you are using lowering springs or coilovers, set the circlip in the upper groove. If you are using stock springs, you can use either the upper or lower groove depending on your ride height preferences or needs. Remember to have the wheels re-aligned if you install the circlip in the lower groove.

hard to imagine that the circlip is the only thing holding the shock.
