    Exclamation Koni shock nut/thread caps

    One of these fell off - can't seem to find a way to order just a cap anywhere. Too anal perhaps, I shouldn't care. But alas, it bothers me to no end.

    wicks,

    Try a good local front end alignment shop or a Porsche repair shop... One guy might have one in there tool box 'crap drawer' ... Good luck

    When I replaced my Koni shock absorbers (front and rear) in 1995 I did not receive any thread protectors or surely I would have installed them as well. Should I contact Stoddard's to complain that my Koni packages were incomplete?

    I'm not sure all kits were meant to include them - but I'm no expert. They certainly should be available for any kit that has the open threaded post sticking up after installation - much cleaner/complete/professional. They should cost only a buck or something, so why not make them available for easy replacement...

    I emailed Paragon - maybe they want to be the problem solver and post them for sale.
