| Rick Rowland | Were the front shocks on a late production 2002 made by Koni,or did the previous owner install mine? I noticed that the collars on my front shocks have KONI cast into them.(Right below the top mounting eye,and above the coil over- spring) I have some paper work where a dealer replaced the front shocks on this car under warranty due to leaking. I just don't remember seeing KONI on a 2001 that I owned previously. Are these OEM or aftermarket KONI"s. No other Kats in my neighborhood. Thanks everyone! |
| garysss | The dealers replaced leaking Dynamic shocks with Koni's which were standard on 1997-2000 models. Be glad they have been done already. |
| jim des | The 2001's, like mine, had the crappy leaking Dynamic's installed at the factory. I believe that Koni's were installed before and after the 2001 model year run. Last summer I changed my shocks to Koni's. |
| broakie56 | Any known defects or problems with the KONI shocks? |
| garysss | not so far. |
| catfish | theres no such thing as a a/m koni shock for a kat.the 2001 could have had susp.dynamics on it. ------------------

| DON WIEBER | mine is a 2002 with the front shocks leaking. it has over 34000 miles on it. |
| JeraneW | My '01 Dynamics were replaced under warranty with Konis. |
| catfish | some 2001s had the leakers on them made by susp dynamics.konis will last forever and have never heard of a koni that leaked.konis will last 150.000 miles or more. ------------------

| George Johnson | I believe Koni Shocks have a lifetime warranty to the original purchaser for as long as you own the vehicle. |
| alrtg | The problem with "Lifetime Warranties" is that when the item breaks, it's lifetime is over and the warranty becomes void. quote:

| alrtg | Larry, Is that the same price for both front or rear? |
| condor | On my silver 01 the dynamics shocks got replaced with Konis.
The burned-orange 01 had, (I think) konis. One shock was a little bit wet““, so I replaced the front shocks. ( Because there are so cheap, compare to the european prices)
A friend works on a air ride system for his prowler.
I wait, till he finds the perfect set up, then I invest““ too !  -- This message has been edited by condor on 01-16-2010 at 04:20 PM |
| meancat | My 2002 came with Dynamic shocks, They were leaking around 25,000 miles. So I bought a set of Koni's ( I think for $99.00 a set# installed myself,# what a bear# and have know problem for the last 3 years. However the first set #Dynamic's# lasted that long. The rear shocks I've been lead to believe run a bunch of money pre set.# have not had to do that yet) ------------------
