    No response to the very pretty red shocks for sale.

    So if anyone has some interest make me a offer, pay the shipping and there yours. BTW...90-2573 fits nearly everything except XL-II front with IFS. (lower mount is shaft not bango).

    Probably PM (private mail) preferred

    Thanks

    I know this has been discussed before, but I did the Konis all around this winter. I could not be happier with the ride and handling.

    I'm curious if any of you seasoned multiple bus owners can answer this question for me. Koni front shocks are adjustable I put a lot of them on. My customers look to me for where I should set them and I don't have enough miles behind the wheel on a Prevo to make an educated suggestion. The standard response and installation leads to setting them in the middle halfway between lost and found.

    Where do you set your Koni and is there any difference when you do it? Completely soft? completely firm? What's the verdict inquiring minds want to know.

    Middle of the road hear. I suppose it might be good to hear from someone that drove a good distance at the firmest on softest settings to hear how much difference they felt.

    No need to worry boy's, the new Koni's are not adjustable.

    A few years ago when it seemed like Koni's were all the rage everyone I know did middle. My opinion is guys changed from a bad shock to a new Koni and word got out how wonderful they were. I changed a OEM Monroe at 60 k miles to a Koni and couldn't tell the difference on my old bus.

    I need some ANTI-LEAN aka CORNERING shocks all around. I am gonna look into adding rear sway-bar once can get under bus and see what is/isn't there.
