quick question.. adjustable?

[integrasaurus]

Hate to sound like a noob but ... are these ride height adjustable bought the car with them on it and the grooves look to me like they would be but I was wonderin if anyone had these and could tell me about them before I took them off.

The shock, in your case Koni, a very good quality brand and trusted shock, has adjustable stiffness, for the height it's the springs or coilover sleeves, from the picture I can't really tell lol, I think there just springs so you can't adjust the height.

i don't see threads or the little spinny things... more pics might tell if u take one of the wheel off and straight at it

i thought the koni had different perches to have the spring rest on

 

[whitedc4]

is that what those lines are?

 

[Samurai_Blue]

i thought so.
i havent messed with konis in a long long long time

From what I see. The strut says adjustable right on it. I wonder for what though?
lol

 

[whitedc4]

thats why i'd just look it up or have someone who has the same ones tell you. i'd hate to give bad advice and break emmm

The adjustable means the dampening can be adjusted via the top of the shock.
As far as the adj. of car height= NO. those would go with the Ground control coilover sleeves.
Im not sure about the rings up top on the shock tube tho...

 

[integrasaurus]

So does this mean to become adjustable I could get coilover sleeves and put them on these shocks?

 

[WAR 178]

pretty much yeah...
Im not sure how long the shocks been on there, but yeah those are a good type for the ground control, koni yellow setup many people tend to run.
I would investigate the sleeves tho...maybe things have changed in terms of what can be used or not.
