I started putting my rear suspension back together tonight and decided to see what I had between 3 different cars. The shocks off of this car are Boges. One seems like a decent shock, the other is shot. The 72 that I picked up a couple of months ago has new looking KYBs on it. Don't know what shape they are in. My 76 parts car has Koni adjustables on it. They are marked 9-72 Special D. I went ahead and pulled them off and one has no resistance, the other one I pushed in and now it won't come back out. I tried pulling it out and no luck. Can the Koni's be rebuilt and if so, where?? As bad as I hate to, I may have to run the KYB's for now until I can get a better pair. Thanks in advance !!

Koni's are a lifetime shock as they are rebuildable as many times as you wanna send them off to get them rebuilt. Truechoice is where I sent mine a couple years back to have rebuilt. The basic cost was 150.00 per shock plus parts.The final cost was abut 400.00 for the pair. If you want info,the 800# is in the pic,and ask for Phil when you call. Ron Attached thumbnail(s) |
