[QUOTE=snotrag;541843]So this is very, very early days, but the car is back on its wheels, Koni FSD, stock springs, (I'm UK remember so maybe different to your US springs), top mounts, coffin arms, drop links, ARB bushes, Track rods, tuning forks and trailing arms. Its a bit good!

There is significantly less body roll than I expected, its very flat - that must be the slow speed compression damping - yet the bump/rough road performance so far feels excellent. and its so nice to have no rattles, bangs, knocks or anything at all! I did think I might need some stiffer ARB's but on first efforts I'm not sure I will.

Unfortunately I couldn't book in for an alignment until next week, so despite me doing best efforts to get it roughly straight with stringing out, it drives horrendous because all the wheels are pointing all over the shop. So ill have to wait before I really push it, but so far, so good - I think these Koni FSD could be exactly what a number of people want!





Strange I keep missing posts..... I agree with your assessment and would like to hear what your thoughts are after the alignment. I haven't found any fault with my FSDs during hard driving, corner entry is very flat and bumps mid corner are soaked up very well. I'm especially impressed with the way they soak up the seams in concrete paving, the slaps that felt like the steering column was bending are simply gone, amazing.
