They are the orange double adjustable shocks. They have seen a lot of use of the years. Wondering where I can get the best deal for having them rebuilt? I have the shock tests run when I had them revalved and would like to get them set as such.

Is Koni the only game in town?

Not sure if they still are (it's been a while since I've had Konis rebuilt/revalved), but Truechoice in the Columbus, Ohio area is an authorized Koni service center.

But they're not cheap.

Koni when I had mine rebuilt a couple of years ago was sloooooooow. It took them more than a 5 months to get them done.

I had also included express instructions that I wanted to talk to them about the valving before they did the work, I wanted to something slightly different than their "stock" valving..... Never got a call..

Only when I called them to tell them to just send them back did they say they were done... Never got a chance to spec the valving I wanted, and I also go a huge bill.

I wasn't happy at all..

I would call Pro Parts (not fast or cheap either), but based on my experience I would not use Koni... I would call first and make sure you know exactly what you want done and how much they expect you to pay for it...

As Dennis Grant has said "I have a love/hate relationship with Koni, love the shocks, hate that only a few places can rebuild them"...

I'm in the same boat..

I was thinking about Truechoice.

Two choices -

SRP Engineering - aka Stimola Racing on Long Island. Talk to James or Nancy. Great people...THE race shock shop for racers.

Or

Truechoice (as already mentioned). Ask for Phil.

I've always had the best quality work from Koni USA. They even replaced my worn out piston assemblies in my Double D shocks for free, nice since the shortening and revolving work was about $1K in labor.

If they are inverted, then they are the 3013's. They aren't really rebuildable. The body has to be cut apart and replaced. It is expensive to service them, so if you are considering an upgrade, now is a good time. The Konis are very durable so unless something is wrong, you don't gain much.
