Default Need different sleeves for Koni yellow GC setup?

Thinking about going Koni Yellow and Ground controls but I have been told the GC sleeves don't match right. If I just buy the coils do you think the perches will sit right?

What do you mean by "don't match right"?
If you purchase these as a kit then they match up. If you purchase non-specific Koni Ground Controls and try to install them on Konis they will not fit unless you have one of the rare and mystical adapters.

Just purchased mine. They (GC) have a drop down menu when ordering the coilovers to specify which type of shock. Do some research on spring rates depending on what style of driving / level of lowering you want. Read the sticky on lowering, great info.

FWIW, I also ordered the koni bump stops (available on GC website).

THMotorsports (seller on this site) can also take care of your order, and get you the right parts.

same here, just give them a call and they'll answer all your questions and concerns. I personally called them and talked to nick for about 15 minutes and was totally confident when making the purchase and everything,
