I have some used koni yellow front shocks, how can I make use of them?

It seems to me that getting them re-done is the same price as buying new ones, so why do so many people get them re-done?

Is it just to recycle and save the earth?

right, but what good are they to you if they are shot?

MM951

doesn't koni rebuild for free?

hmmm I think I started this post asking that question...

I wouldnt know. do they?

I wish! Their starting rate for rebuilding is $140 each and it goes up from there. The $140 is just labor, then you figure in seals and everything else and you could easily end up around $400.

I had mine rebuilt because they are MO30 struts, otherwise I would have bought some new cartridges and gone to town.

theyll make good cores to send to paragon-products when you buy new ones.

So why would you do this if you can get new ones for $180.15?

Am I missing something but

$400 is a lot MORE than $180??????????

If you want a custom valving they would be good, since they'd need to be rebuilt anyway. Koni warranties their shocks for life to the original owner as far as I know. But yea, if you aren't the original owner or don't need custom valving then they're a bit worthless. Maybe a racer that needs custom valving would buy them.

yep, I pulled mine out of a car I bought, I replaced them with new yellows... if I could make use of them somehow that would be great, but if not then???????

Tell me where I can buy some new MO30 struts and I'll buy a few sets.
