designed to offer the best compromise between road handling

forces are designed for all driving requirements.
KONI Sport (yellow). The KONI Sport dampers are designed

for aggressive driving or cars with suspension upgrades while
continuing to offer comfort. If a KONI Sport is listed as an
alternative to the KONI Special, choose Sport for aggressive
handling characteristics.
KONI Sport (yellow) shocks are identified by the Sport suffix
(example, 8040-1026 Sport). KONI Special (red or black)
shocks are listed without the Sport suffix (example, 8040-1026).

REBOUND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES

Remove the shock absorber from the vehicle and hold it
vertically with the lower eye or pin attachment in a vise. Use
clamp plates to prevent damage.
Fully collapse the shock absorber, at the same time turning the
dust cap or piston rod slowly to the left (counterclockwise),
until it is felt that the cams of the adjusting nut engage in the
recesses of the foot valve assembly.
Some shock absorbers include a bump rubber concealed under

the dust cover that must be removed prior to adjusting.
The damper may have already been adjusted. Therefore check

whether the shock absorber is in the unadjusted position or not
by keeping it collapsed and gently turning further to the left
counting at the same time the half turns until a stop is felt. Stop
turning then and do not use force.
Keeping the shock absorber collapsed, make 1 half turn (180o)

to the right (clockwise). In case of prior adjustment add the
number of half turns previously found. The total range is about
5 half turns.
Pull the shock absorber out vertically without turning for at least
1 cm to disengage the adjusting mechanism. The dust cap or
piston rod may now be turned freely.

Formula-1 racing where KONI dampers have dominated the
field for years. One can switch back and forth, in most cases in
a matter of seconds, from a comfortable “touring” setting to a
more firm setting for a sporty drive. By means of a knob the
damping forces can be altered to driving conditions or personal
preferences.

SERVICE CENTER
KONI SERVICE CENTER

KONI operates a full service shock absorber service
center to provide complete testing, fabrication,
restoration, and revalve capabilities. The facility
includes services for automotive, motorsports, heavy
duty bus and truck, railway and industrial applications.
DYNO TESTING – All KONI dampers are dynamometer

tested when they are manufactured, however, racing
dampers should be dyno tested periodically to ensure
optimum performance. KONI offers dyno services
utilizing the latest technology in computer operated
multi- and single speed dynos.
REBUILD – KONI dampers, in most cases, are fully

rebuildable. Vintage street and racing shocks can be refur-
bished to like-new condition including paint and decals.
REVALVE – In cases where the original KONI valving

may not be optimal for modified vehicles, the valving
may be altered to match upgraded suspension
requirements. KONI has developed specific valvings
for motorsports applications including autocross, drag
racing, oval track racing and road course racing.

NON-REBUILDABLE KONI DAMPERS

Although most KONI dampers are rebuildable and revalvable, certain KONI dampers
due to their unique configuration are sealed for life. Shocks which are not readily
rebuildable include series: 25, 26, 2615, 30, 76, 7610 and some 8640 and 8641.

“CUT-A-STRUT” STRUT INSERT
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
FITTING OF "BOLT-THROUGH-THE-BOTTOM" STRUT DAMPERS

For normal use on the road, the new strut dampers must be fitted
straight from the box. (Original adjustment). In all other cases see
enclosed adjustment instructions.
1. ATTENTION: In case of adjustable attachments mark off their
position first before unscrewing the nuts to obtain
correct adjustment of wheel camber and caster
angles after fitting.
Remove the complete suspension unit from the car. Compress the
spring with coil spring clamps. Remove the fixing parts, bump rubber,
dust cover (if any), spring, etc., keeping in mind the correct sequence
and position for refitting.
★ The parts (drawn in dotted lines) could be absent or of a different
shape.
2. Punch in the exact center of the base of the damper housing. First
drill a pilot hole of 3 mm diameter and then drill to ø 14 mm
(fig. a). Drain oil.
3. Saw off (depth 1.5-2 mm) the original damper housing, as shown
with dotted lines in fig. b for the several types I + II. The cut must
made at highest point on the strut housing where the overall
diameter is maintained. If the shock absorber interior cannot be
removed by hand, use a light hammer. Remove all the inner parts.
Beware of outstreaming oil.
4. Smooth the drilled hole on both sides. File off the nail W and clean
the inside of the damper housing (fig. c).
5. Fit the rubber protection cover R on the strut damper (fig e-II) and
slide the latter into the housing.
6. Fit now plate X - if supplied- with its profiled side directed to the
bottom, then the locking ring and the bolt (fig. d).
7. Draw the strut damper deeper into the original housing by tightening
the bolt with a torque of 85 Nm (63 ft.lbs) and fit the rubber
protection cover as per fig. e-II.
8. De-aerate the strut damper with piston rod by fully extending and
compressing it several times.
9. Keep the piston rod extended as much as possible and place
plastic collar Y -if supplied- between the damper body and the
bumprubber (fig. e).
10. Fit the suspension unit in reverse order of dismantling. Renew the
bump rubber, dust cover etc. in case of damage.
11. Tighten the fixing nut Z home as far as stop (bush or pin collar)
using the torque setting prescribed in the table. (fig. f) and
release the spring.
ATTENTION:
To avoid any unwanted adjustment of the strut damper
never use a pneumatic or electric impact wrench.
Check and set wheel alignment after fitting.
