    SWB Koni struts & Special D inserts

    it is my understanding that the current offering from Koni fits, but internally they are not the same as the original units. Smaller pistons are used resulting in a softer ride. comments ?

    all;
    prices include delivery to the lower 48 via ground. i decided to go w/ SC type front stuff.
    struts w/ used inserts $450 spindle lock nuts included if you need them.
    Special D inserts. one has a ding that won't effect performance. $400
    happy to answer any questions, post additional pix etc.
    100% satisfaction guarantee. thanks for listening.

    inserts NLA ?

    in response to an offline request, yes dust covers are included. here's a shot of the set after a light clean up. one strut will need a bearing race replaced.
    also, did i read that the inserts are NLA ?

    Ahh this must be cut from a pelican thread. They are not available but you can rebuild the old ones at a Koni repair facility. So what do you need for the new inserts I am interested?

    By the way I have a single SWB Koni strut housing that is missing its partner. Anyone need just one house then email me.

    Just a free bump to say how pleased I am dealing with Jerry. The struts were precisely in the condition as described, and incredibly well packed to avoid damage in shipment. They shipped immediately via FedEx and I am very pleased with the outcome.

    Thanks Jerry! You are the MAN when it comes to good stuff!
