    Koni Sport Question

    Simple question...do Koni's come with bump stops and the protective boots for front and rear or do I need to get some from Pelican?

    Thanks,
    Casey

    You may not need them I know with Bilsteins they have the bump stop built into the internals of the shock.

        My Koni's have come like this:
        Front- Bump stop incuded. No protective boots.
        Rear- Bump stop included and thats it.

        Having said that...I have run them just like they came with no ill effects.
        I don't think I've noticed anyone installing boots on their front Koni's.

          Did you put the metal collar over the top of the front strut?? Was the bump stop same size as oem?

            The B4s I pulled had OE boots but the koni Sport rears I just installed have an outer metal housing so you dont need a dust boot.
