Koni Install

Hey guys,
I was wondering where you guys get the koni damper inserts installed and mounted. I called my mechanic and he said he wasn't able to do this

I talked to Mike about doing it for mine and he said he's done plenty of them.

I hear Auto Innovations will do it as well. Or if you have the tools/friends with the tools, you could do it yourself as well.

Mine are being done by Mozart Motors in Belmont near Harbor and Old County. I'll PM you contact info if you want. No idea on cost, will be time/materials most likely, but it shouldn't be bad.

I would take it to the guys at RBMS in Hayward, they are capable of doing that a long with other high quality jobs. Tell them pho_shizzle sent you. The master mechanic used to work at GST.

If you have the time, it's not hard to do it yourself. All I used was a whiteout marker, a hack saw, cheapo elementary school style ruler, and an electric drill. lol, ghetto, but it's held up over 110k miles with no issues, other than needing to replace a blown koni after 100k miles.

Head North...

to Novato, CA and get LIC'd.

415*892*7400

Getting LIC'd means it's done right, the first time...

...go for it. You'll thank me later.
