Product Information

Full details

The Koni STR.T Shock Absorber is designed for automotive enthusiasts looking to upgrade their vehicle's handling stability and suspension control without the complexity of adjustable damping. It delivers a more responsive driving experience by managing compression and rebound forces, making it ideal for daily drivers and light performance enthusiasts; however, because the damping is factory-set, users cannot manually fine-tune the suspension firmness for different track or road conditions.

Will these fit any vehicle?

Troubleshooting

Noticeable oil leaking from the shock shaft

This indicates a failed seal; the shock absorber must be replaced as it can no longer provide consistent damping.

Excessive noise or clunking over bumps

Check all mounting hardware for proper torque specifications and ensure the top mounts are seated correctly.

Vehicle feels unstable after installation

Verify that the correct springs were used and that the wheel alignment has been professionally adjusted to manufacturer specifications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Koni STR.T should be performed by a professional technician or an experienced enthusiast using proper spring compressors and safety equipment. Ensure you are purchasing the correct number of units, as these are typically sold individually.

Compatibility: This unit is specifically tuned for its designated vehicle fitment. While it accommodates lowering springs up to 40 mm, verify your vehicle's specific requirements before installation.

Care: Periodically inspect the shock body for oil leaks or physical damage to the shaft. Keep the area free of debris and ensure that the bump stops and dust covers are in good condition to protect the internal seals from road grime and moisture.
