    Koni Question...

    Can someone who has installed adjustable Koni's on the front of their car tell me whether I need to put oil back in the strut tube? Or can I run them without? From what I read, it sounds like if you are putting hydraulic shocks back in the car, you need to have oil in the strut housing. If you are running gas shocks, you don't need to have oil in them. The pictograms that came with my shocks said add oil, but not what kind of oil, or how much? Any useful input is greatly appreciated.

    Power steering fluid or ATF. That way, when it leaks out, you can tell that you haven't blown out the strut.

      I wipe mine down with motor oil, keeps the tube from rusting and helps it slide out when you need to change it.
