Default Re: adjusting shocks

this is what am getting:
2 Shock Absorber KONI 8041 1228SPORT (front)
2 Shock Absorber KONI 8041 1229SPORT (rear)
if you order for crossfire, this is what you will get.

and if you want to get more details on the install, when you check the instructions available you need to make sure you are using the right 1s, as there are many that dont belong to these you are getting. to read the right 1s you need to check the whole part number, including the 8041.
these are the specific for ours:
Adjustment Procedure 8010, 8041, 8210, 8241, 8610, 8641, 8710, 8741 Series (notice somewhere: 8041-thats ours)
( i extracted just what is of use for us)
the pic showing the ****:


Externally Adjustable: These dampers can be adjusted, literally at the turn of a ****, a technique borrowed from Formula-1 racing where KONI dampers have dominated the field for years. By means of a **** damping forces can be altered to driving conditions or personal preferences. One can switch back and forth, in most cases in a matter of seconds, from a comfortable "touring" setting to a more firmer setting for a sporty drive.

Rebound Adjustment Direction:
Clockwise: Softer
Counter Clockwise: Firmer

so far, using the **** all is straightforward, but still i dont understand why they show the figure and instructions telling that about inserting a pin-that dont belong and we are not getting. they shouldnt include it . just makes things confusing.

and i had to find this in the complete instructions ( http://www.koni.com/en-US/Cars/Techn...stment-Guides/ ) and was because i found the 8041 lost in the series. so beware.
