Hello I have the following parts and what to know the Order in Which things are installed. I have seen a few guides and none talking about the plastic clip, or the peice of metal that looks like a socket.

 

So...the instructions...?? Have they been disposed of?

The metal clip goes onto the middle or top groove on the shock body. The sleeve slips over the top of the shock. Only one side of the sleeve sits on the clip properly.

Then the spring. Then the bump stop.

Then the thick silver/gold washer (concave side down). Then the black washer.

Then the hat (loaded with bushings).

Then the thin gold washer concave side up.

Then the nut.

 

i dont think you have the right "koni specific" ground control sleeves.

dont attempt to try to install it together.

 

Like this??

 

^???

No. The silver metal cups at ths bottom aren't supposed to be there.

Do you have Koni yellow specific GC sleeves?

Is there a more dimly lit place you can take pics in with less descriptive angles? Like...totally in the dark, if possible? I want to try out my bat-vision.

 

 

My sleeve dosent fit overtop of the metal ring on the struts. Will I be unable to run these with the yellow koni struts? I was informed on the ground control website it would be compatible with the struts.

 

You need Koni yellow specific GC sleeves (red part) to use them on koni yellow shocks. You cannot safely use anything but koni specific sleeves.

Are the red sleeves too big? Do they just slide past the clips?

The silver cups cannot be used with ANY coilover sleeve. They are for springs that mount directly to the cup...like stock springs or lowering springs.

 

Yes they just slide right by, they are to wide to sit on the metal ring.
Thank you so much for the help!! I will exchange them for a pair of koni yellow specific coil sleeves

 

No problem, good luck.

Do you have the directions from the manufacturer still? Those have installation instructions and diagrams. You have to orient everything in very specific ways.
