Koni Reds Can Now Be Adjusted In the Car!
 
If you have Koni Red Shocks front or rear, then you know that the instructions say to adjust them, you must remove the Koni from the car, clamp the top in a vise, push the housing up to the top all the way (compress the shock fully), and turn the housing left or right to open/close the valve.

The process of R&Ring the shock alone is enough to stop most guys from doing it.

HOWEVER! We developed a tool that allows you to adjust your Koni Reds WHILE THEY ARE IN THE CAR in about 4 minutes per side.

here it is: http://www.928motorsports.com/parts/shocktool.html

There are even pics on that page of using the tool to adjust Koni's on a 928.

Now you can adjust your Koni's at the track, or for the street, in just a few minutes.

Great idea!

I'll have to see if my Koni yellow Sports have the 6mm hex....

Yellows, at least for 911 and 914, have the adjustment on
the outside (top) already.

Koni Yellows are usually the "Sport" shox, and have are extermnally adjustable.

This tool is for Koni Reds, with the 6mm allen head socket in the top.

NOTE: the Koni red is adjustable, but only the rebound rate is adjustable. The compression rate is not adjustable.

Not on my rears. You have to push them in and turn to adjust. No knobs or anything on the top that I've seen when I installed them.
