    Dale,

    Thanks for the picture of the bushings. I haven't started installing mine yet, but the vice and soapy water makes it look pretty simple.

    Lets revive this thread its a good one from the good old days.

    Here is a upgrade EVERYONE with a straight axle should be doing if they do not already have it.

    20140307_152023.jpg

    It is an upgrade from 2 front to 4 front shocks. All U need is these 4 additional posts. The existing holes R protected at the factory with bolts so the threads will be perfect. Just take out the protecting bolts and insert the studs.

    For all the suspension stuff I do it is shocks that give U that noticeable difference and R for sure the most bang for the buck.

    I have the luxury of driving a great many different buses for U all not just my own. When folks come to my home I use the same dump station I dumped mine at, Cabalas. There is 1 particular bridge deck that is terrible. When I roll over it at speed with mine with 4 shocks it would do 1 and only 1 rebound. The front axles with 1 shock can not preform like that that. Big and noticeable difference.

    Prevo has 5 different choices Koni Monroe matic (yellow) and 3 no name soft medium and firm. Monroe's R about 50 a piece. I say 20000 on steer axle shocks and 50000 on the rear for the Monroe's.

    If U order these U also need 4 inner washers 4 outer washers 4 nuts.

    Good call Joe,
    Has anybody done any setting changes from medium to firm or soft on Konis and noticed a big difference?
