Default Re: koni install questions. WTF

How are they not fitting? These should fit OEM top hats. Try to get some pics. After market extended or custom built top hats are a nice upgrade but OEM should work.

You might have gotten the wrong koni's check your part numbers and make sure they match to your make, model and year.

People modify their stock top-hats (extending them) and they use koni yellows with them.

Make sure you're using everything that came with the Koni kit.

did you swap the metal tube that goes in the tophat bushings, the konis come with new ones, the shaft on the konis is larger than stock

I did this six years ago. IIRC, there was some issue with the bump stops but that was it.
